HIST 210 Honors Film as History

This course will treat films as texts requiring the same critical thinking and analysis as any other sources used within a history course. Students will study films as valid historical sources that offer a glimpse into the social, political and cultural historical moment in which they were created. Further inquiry will be accomplished through the use of interpretation and research of additional materials. This course is open only to students in one of the Honors tracks or by permission of the Department Chair.
