Welcome to History 594: A graduate seminar in Indigenous History

We will use this site to share our discussion questions with each other on a weekly basis.  We will meet on Tuesdays from 11:30 – 2pm in Buchanan Tower 1207 on the unceded, ancestral territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) people.

In preparation for our first class meeting on 9 January please read the assigned material for week 1 listed on the “course schedule page” of this blog.

Assignment details and other course information will appear on this blog shortly.

Here is a PDF that lists of the books we have ordered through the UBC bookstore.  The only change from this list is that we are not reading Witgen’s Infinity of Nations.  You will see there are quite a number of books that we have ordered for this course.  For the required books, we are reading all or nearly all of the book in question.  For the recommended books, we are reading shorter selections, but recommend that you purchase the book for your own future reference if possible.  Alternatively, we have also provided PDFs of selected chapters of these recommended books on the course schedule page.  We will make an extra copy (or, when possible, two) of nearly every book available to share in order to ease the monetary burden.

Looking forward to seeing all of you in January.

–Paige & Coll
