The date of the class for this year’s course is linked to the outline for the prerecorded lecture. Below that, under the same date, is the outline that I used for the class the last time I held the class. The outlines contain three types of material: (1) facts or bibliography about people or events that we will mention in the class or in the lecture (‘kings, and battles, and dates’); (2) documents, or summaries thereof, that we will be studying in class (good for preparing for class); and (3) genuine outlines of the lectures or class. For the classes that have not yet been held, I give here the lecture outlines from last year, keyed to dates on which we will have the class this year. The lectures were recorded in 2022. The class outlines begin with the prerecorded lecture outlines but frequently add things or move things around to reflect what actually went on in the class. Some of them contain hyperlinks at the top that shows the order in which we took up the topics in class. I display these outlines on the screen in class. As we move along, I will substitute the class outline for this year’s class and change the date to 2025.
We have included a cell for the undergraduate section meetings as if they were on Thursdays. The outlines for these meetings, where they exist, go back to 2020, and the documents assigned are much more subject to change than are those for the regular classes. Think of them as the kind of thing that you might want to talk about in section. Mr. Seif will email you with more specific assignments for each section.
Under the outlines there are one or more links to the documents in the coursepack assigned for the class. The documents frequently contain more than we will discuss in class, because they also include documents about which you might want to write your papers. The lecture outlines usually give a pretty good idea of where the class will focus, as does the syllabus.
We have included links to many of the secondary readings listed in the syllabus as they are in syllabus, at the beginning of the week. As we say in the syllabus, focus on the documentary material. It’s more important than the secondary reading. Where more than one secondary reading is given, e.g., Bellomo and van Caenegem, they are alternatives, but they frequently provide different viewpoints.
Below the links to the documents are links to the prerecorded lectures and below that to the slides that accompany them. At least on my browser, the slides have to be downloaded; they will not appear on the screen if you just clck on them.
