HIST 2738 - TIME KITCHEN


Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course is a deep exploration of one of the central concepts and materials shaping the work of the historian: time. It is open to students writing about or with the past in any discipline or department. Together, we will bring together the crafts of history and creative writing in order to explore a number of key questions: How does time inhere in materials and material experience? How do material and conceptual technologies and our relations with them produce and constrain our experiences of time? How do particular conceptions of time determine particular kinds of historical experience? How do they constrain us into particular kinds of historical practice? How might thinking time differently create opportunities for us to experience time differently, and thus to expand our craft as storytellers?
