FRN-LNG 400CI      Cc:Culture,Kultur,Civilisation:Identity Formation In the Middle Classes
This cluster course will explore the dynamics of bourgeois class formation in Western Europe in the ""long"" 19th century (1750-1920) from historical, thematic, and theoretical perspectives. It will focus on how this class-based identity developed and functioned in the context of historical and cultural changes and how the bourgeoisie defined themselves vis a vis nobles, peasants, workers, ""primitives,"" and criminals. Class assignments will include historical, literary, theatrical, anthropological, and cinemagraphic sources.
