Key reading.<\/p>\n
One blog post (your first or second one! The full 20 points in sight.)<\/p>\n
Also, in class #week 2<\/strong> we did some group writing on the “Possibilities<\/strong>” a transnational \/ global perspective offers. In hindsight<\/strong>: Did we really flesh this out? Perhaps revisit that question with the new readings for #week3<\/strong> in mind. Do these texts (transnational history in practice) link back and reflect earlier readings: Clavin, Oxo, AHR?<\/p>\n For Week 2: Please prepare the following.<\/strong><\/p>\n -Key readings as explained in the Course Handbook (see page ABOUT).<\/p>\n -Some ideas for discussion: Think about trans<\/strong>national & transnational<\/strong>. The shift in emphasis (more trans, more national?) How might this alter the approach or topic? Are we discussing a “method” or a more loosely defined “approach” overall? What are the fields (old and new) in transnational and global history? If an older well-established field springs to mind, how would a transnational agenda alter the perspective? As historians we operate in space and time (chronology). What are the challenges, perhaps pitfalls for a transnational \/ global\u00a0historian?<\/p>\n But these are just ideas. Yours are more than welcome. Do the reading but then zoom-in, pick and choose what you find relevant for discussion.<\/p>\n And now to the tech stuff<\/strong>:<\/p>\n -Sign-up to and download\u00a0Zotero<\/a>\u00a0Bernhard (bs50@st-andrews.ac.uk)\u00a0has sent you an invite with your email address for the group folder on Transnational History.<\/p>\n -Sign-up to transnationalhistory.net<\/a> and we will then change your status to author.<\/p>\n
