Overview

The age of revolution and the seeds of modern democracy are traceable back to the fifteenth-century Renaissance when the works of classical-age scholars were rediscovered. This course follows the trajectory of popular sovereignty as Europe transitioned from the early modern period, 1400s-1600s, to the foundations of the modern era, 1700s-1800s. It facilitates a critical level of knowledge and the application of academic and professional skills for you to engage with the history of both power structures and forms of opposition, relevant to today鈥檚 world. You will explore the tensions between ideologies and popular resistance over a series of turbulent episodes from peasant revolts to the French and industrial revolutions. The course conceptualises deepening insights into social criticism and reflects patterns from global and twentieth and twenty-first century histories germane to students studying in the History major and minor, those studying in the Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSED), as well as in other disciplines.

In this course you will explore the history of Europe through a lens of radical change. Between the Renaissance and rise of nationalism - an epoch when events and new ideas could not be contained - Europeans increasingly resisted the constraints enforced by traditional elites and power structures. This course is framed by the concept of popular sovereignty and punctuated by the overarching themes of transformation, resistance, revolution and divergence through which students explore the nature and impact of the `voice' of the people. While encompassing political and economic pressures this history content invites discussion about the roles of semi-literate and educated men and women, who thought outside the paradigm and took advantage of the printing press. Of significance is the power of illiterate and semi-literate folk who contested injustices under Church, states and nations. You will engage in archival and scholarly research to develop knowledge, academic competencies and practical professional skills.
