Course Description

History of Europe/AP 141B 4 Credits

NOTE: THIS COURSE IS NOT OPEN TO STUDENTS WHO HAVE TAKEN EUROPEAN HISTORY I OR II.

This two-trimester course employs an interdisciplinary approach to study European History from the Renaissance to the 20th century.  Art, music, literature, social and intellectual history will be emphasized.  Students are introduced to a variety of historical methods and problems, as well as to differing schools of historical interpretation.  Instruction in the use of specialized reference works and periodicals, computer-assisted research, and the interactions of history as a discipline with other fields such as anthropology and psychology will be included.  Evaluation will be based on a broad range of projects, papers and tests that require ability to analyze and interpret as well as recall information.  Students who elect this course may take the AP Exam, but are not required to do so.
