ENGL 216 Milton and Modernity 6 credits
John Milton wrote what is perhaps the most influential, and arguably greatest, poem in the English language. In this work (Paradise Lost), and indeed throughout his corpus, Milton engaged his literary predecessors extensively, yet he also anticipated modern concerns in striking ways. We will read his major works (“Lycidas,” the sonnets, Paradise Lost, and Paradise Regained), as well as prose selections, attending to his use of sources, and to the ways Milton presages debates over free speech and book banning, Darwinism, the multiverse, and AI.

HIST 240 Tsars and Serfs, Cossacks and Revolutionaries: The Empire that was Russia 6 credits
Nicholas II, the last Tsar-Emperor of Russia, ruled over an empire that stretched from the Baltic to the Pacific. Territorial expansion over three-and-a-half centuries had brought under Russian rule a vast empire of immense diversity. The empire’s subjects spoke a myriad languages, belonged to numerous religious communities, and related to the state in a wide variety of ways. Its artists produced some of the greatest literature and music of the nineteenth century and it offered fertile ground for ideologies of both conservative imperialism and radical revolution. This course surveys the panorama of this empire from its inception in the sixteenth century to its demise in the flames of World War I. Among the key analytical questions addressed are the following: How did the Russian Empire manage its diversity? How does Russia compare with other colonial empires? What understandings of political order legitimized it and how were they challenged?
