298. Experimental Course
Caribbean History
A new and experimental course devoted to history of "Greater Caribbean" since 1492. The "Greater Caribbean" centers on islands which touch the Caribbean Sea and extends to places where Caribbean migrants go, such as Boston, New York, Miami, London, Paris and Africa. Course will present Caribbean history as a unit rather than as the sum of the histories of the parts of the Caribbean and will emphasize, through interpretation and discussion of documents and historical scholarship, the relationship between the Greater Caribbean and the development of the modern world.
