Rationale:
History 861-5 has
been replaced by History 851-5 to broaden
the opportunities to cover the 19th century.. it was felt that
the Ottoman Empire alone excluded Egypt and most of North Africa.
History 865-5 has been replaced by History 863-5 and History
866-5 in order to make more specific our African course offerings.
History 863-5 offers the possibility of including all of colonial
Africa. History 866-5 on the other hand will be more specifically

Rationale: The department is not adding new
areas of study, but emphasizing those areas
to reflect the interests of the faculty presently
in the department.
Change in Requirements:
From:
*AII candidates for the M.A. degree are encouraged to enrol in HIST 800-5. His-
toriography; it is not, however, a required course.
A candidate must satisfy the following minimum requirements:
I. 30 semester hours of work, of which 15 semester hours must be in graduate
courses (or research seminars) in the Department.
2. The M.A. thesis, which carries a value of 10 semester hours.0
to:
All candidates for the M.A. degree will normally enroll in

applicable each
semester
for all students enrolled in liisory
A candidate must Satisfy the following requirements:
1. ?
30 Semester hours of work, of which 15 semester hours
must be in
graduate
Courses in the. Department,
the M.A. thesis or three, extended essays, whiCh carry
a
value of
10 of the 30
r
equired semester hours.'
Rationale:
The department has included in the calendar a
statement that a thesis seminar course is available
each semester in the department. We presently offer
this
n
on-creditcourse, and find most of our students
engaged in thesis research attend. We do not wish
to make attendance mandatory, but simply to indicate
to incoming students that the department does not
forget them when their course work is completed and
they begin their thesis.
* The department has already states that student can
use extended essays-to fulfill the M.A. requirements,
therefore this addition is editorial here.

the Ph.D. level, we have revised our programme to
emphasize Colonialism and Imperialism. This is really
no new departure. Since its inception, the department has
implicitly emphasized study in Colonialism and Imperialism
at the Ph.D. level (as well as at the undergraduate and
M.A. level), although it described its fields in terms of
geographical region rather than conceptually. Virtually
every member of the department, has some interest in
teaching in this programme, and nearly 2/3 of the depart-
ment
have
important research interests in some subf told
of Colonialism and Imperialism. By reorganizing the
programme, we have indicated to potential students what it
is that we do well and wish to continue to do well. We
have dropped some (though not all), of our old regional
fields and merged them into a conceptual programme, which
• ?
will enable us to advertise more successfully for graduate
students by focussing on our real interests. Heretofore
we have attracted very few qualified Ph.D. candidates--no
more than one or two a year. We hope that more candidates
will be attracted by the more coherent description of our
programme, which will make it possible to offer core
• ?
seminars for those students in Colonialism and Imperialism.
The major reason the department differentiates between
students in Colonialism And Imperialism (who must enroll
in seminars) and other Ph.D. students (who do not) is
related to numbers of students. If we find enough students
enrolling at the doctoral level outside the Colonialism
and Imperialism programme, we will introduce seminars for
them. In any case, although they are not required of othex
students, any Ph.D. candidates may enroll in them.

p. 73 Language Requfrents
?
Change in Requirements
From: "The language requirement will be dependent on
S ?
the student's chosen field of research and will be
decided in consultation with his Supervisory
Committee. Students proposing to study Canadian
History must demonstrate their ability to read French
before formal admission to candidacy is granted."
to: "The department will reqire a reading knowledge
of any language relevant to the student's research.
Students studying Canadian History must demonstrate
an ability to read French.
• The Department of Modern Languages offers courses to
help Graduate Students to meet the language require-
ments."
Rationale:
On the Ph.D. level the department has tightened its language
requirement. Previously we insisted on a foreign language'
when necessary (except in Canadian history).; now we
require a foreign language. The reason for this change is
• that we have found students without language background
gravitating towards those fields and subfields in which a
• •
?
laig.uago was not essential, rather than icarninj a language
in order to engage in the work which both they and their
supervisors regarded as more intellectually re.u:ding.
It is theoretically possible, for exrn
p
le, towrite a
thesis in German history without knowledge of Grmari. But
the lack of German severely restricts the sort of topic
which can he chosen arid the kind fo work which can be
pursued.

Overview and explanation of the changes in the History graduate calendar
The changes in the History calendar are basically for three purposes:
(1) to bring the calendar entry into line with present interests of
faculty members within the department. (2) To elaborate the programme,
particularly on the M.A. level, so that needed courses are given as
titled seminars rather than as untitled
'
directed readings or directed
research courses. (3) On the Ph.D. level, to bring greater order and
direction into the programme.
The principal changes are the following:
1.
On the M.A. level, the research fields in which students
will be admitted
have been revised to reflect present
teaching and research interests within the department.
Our previous entry was constructed basically in 1968, and
has notappreciably changed with.our faculty. For the
most part, the revisions have involved a more detailed
statement of fields already acceptable to the department
under large rubrics.
2.
Again on the M.A. level, we are introducing a number of
new courses--which will be offered as seminars--to reflect
the expanded and more carefully delineated list of fields
acceptable as research fields. There are really no new
departures here. We have added new courses only in those
areas (Europe, Canada, the Americas, and Middle East/Africa)
in
which we have long accepted candidates. We have not
moved into any new geographical areas (such as Southeast
Asia or the Indian subcontinent) in which we previously
did not accept students. The new courses in European
history, for example, merely offer the student a chance to
enroll in a titled seminar in fields previously taught
occasionally in other courses. Those students interested
-
?
8
in social history could concentrate on that area in the
.
?
old courses on France, England, &c., or in the catchall
titles. Colonial North America and British Columbia were
possible foci
?
of the courses previously offered in
American and Canadian history. They now merely receive
recognition as distinct seminar possibilities.
3.
On the
PkDi
e
v
e i
the department has tightened its language
requirement. Previously we insisted on a foreign language
when necessary (except in Canadian history); now we
require a foreign language. The reason for this change is
that we have found students without language background
gravitating towards those fields and subfields in which a
language was not essential, rather than learning a language
in 'order to engage in the work which both they and their
supervisors regarded as more intellectually rewarding.
It 'is theoretically possible, for example, to write a
thesis in German history without knowledge of German. But
the lack of German severely restricts the sort of topic
which can be chosen and the kind fo work which can be
pursued.
4.
On the Ph.D. level, we have revised our programme to
emphasize Colonialism and Imperialism. This is really
no new departure. Since its inception, the department has
implicitly emphasized study in Colonialism and Imperialism
at the Ph.D. level (as well as at the undergraduate and
M.A. level), although it described its fields in terms of
geographical region rather than conceptually. Virtually
every member of the department has some interest in
teaching in this programme, and nearly 2/3 of the depart-
ment have important research interests in some subfield
of Colonialism and Imperialism. By reorganizing the
programme, we have indicated to potential students what it
9
is that we. do well and wish to continue to do well. We
have dropped some (though not all) of our old regional
fields and merged them into a conceptual programme, which
will enable us to advertise more successfully for graduate
students by focussing on our real interests. Heretofore
we :
háve attracted very few qualified Ph.D. candidates--no
more than one or two a year. We hope that more candidates
will be attracted by the more coherent description of our
programme, which will make it possible to offer core
seminars for those students in Colonialism and Imperialism.
The major reason the department differentiates between
students in Colonialism and Imperialism (who must enroll
in seminars) and other Ph.D..
'
students (who do not) is
related to numbers of students. If we find enough students
enrolling at the doctoral level outside the Colonialism
and Imperialism programme, we will introduce seminars for
them. In any case, although they are not required of other
students, any Ph.D. candidates may enroll in them.
5.. Finally, the department has included in the calendar a
statement that a thesis seminar course is available each
semester in the department. We presently offer this non-
credit course, and find most of our students engaged in
thesis research attend. We do not wish to make attendance
• mandatory, but simply to indicate to incoming students
that the department does not forget them, when their course
work is completed and they begin their thesis.

EUROPEAN CULTURAL HISTORY
Cultural history is the study of the relationships between
social conditions and the culture in which society expresses
itself. Culture, although in many ways an inward and individual
experience is also
.
constituted and confirmed by social institutions,
prevailing ideologies, habits, traditions and the work of outstanding
individuals. What can be seen as culture to the individual may be
seen as civilisation in groups. However, culture in the sense of
religion, literature, philosophy, art, music and literature may be
distinguished from civilisation in the form of cooking (though not
perhaps haute cuisine) drainage, housing or medicine. Culture in
this sense is the province of the yogi, civilisation of the commissar.
The historian sees culture not in the isolated examination of indi-
vidual artifacts, but
in
terms of the complex interplay of social and
intellectual forces, of environment and of genius. Culture is not
simply the sum of all spiritual and material values that serve the
development of mankind, but rather a system of reciprocal relation-
ships, processes and behavioural patterns in which the socially and
ideologically determined effects of these factors form the culture
of a given society.
•
?
?
The specific content of the course will be determined by the
professor teaching the course and in response to the needs of students.
General discussion of cultural history will be based on the study of
the following texts:
Raymond Williams, Culture and Society
T.S. Eliot, Notes Towards the Definition of Culture
H.L. Shapiro (ed.), Man, Culture and Society
Marx and Engels, The German Ideology

History 839
?
COLONIAL NORTH AMERICA
?
Course Outline
This course will deal with the history of North.America in
the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries, from the early voyages of
discovery and exploration to the development of a society of
sufficient 'maturity to fight a successful war of political
liberation against its mother country. The course will termi-
nate with an analysis of readjustments — political, social,
economic, and cultural — to American independence.
Early American history has long been regarded as a separate
field of. specialization. It has its own organization — the
Institute of Early American History and Culture — and its own
journal — The William and Mary Quarterly. Despite the best
efforts of the Institute and the Quarterly, however, the field
has remained curiously ethnocentric, with most specialists
anticipating the American Revolution by dealing with the pre-
revolutionary history of the thirteen rebellious colonies.
Colonial North America was far more complicated than what usually
passed for"Américan Colonial History." Until 1763 its history
was characterized by a continual struggle between British,
French, Indians (and occasionally Spaniards) for dominance on
the continent. The victory of the British produced a single
.
?
empire, however short-lived, on the continent, and Canada is
the direct descendant of that empire. The course operates on
the basic premise, therefore, that the American Revolution,
while obviously the climax of a distinct historical period,
cannot be anticipated.
The following topics will be treated in the
.
course:-
The European background of exploration and colonization.
The creation of colonial societies in British and French
America. Some special attention might be given to New
England Puritanism since so much of the finest literature
in the field has been devoted to that topic.. New France
has also produced a rich literature.
The '
relationship between colonies and metropolis.
The great wars for Empire.
?
.
The causes and consequences of the American Revolution.
Specific emphasis within these outlines will vary from
semester to semester, depending on the interests of those
enrolled in the course and those teaching it.

EUROPEAN BACKGROUND OF COLONIALISM AND IMPERIALISM
A study of the socio-economic and political processes in the
metropolitan states to discover the origins and causes of imperial-
ism. In this course imperialism will be seen in terms of the
development of industrial social systems which became involved in
the oliogopolistic struggle between states. Imperialism will not be
discussed simply as a modern form of an ancient and enduring type of
domination,
nor as part of the continual struggle between states,
nor as the result of technological superiority, nor as a perverted
form of nationalism, nor as the result of atavistic drives in a
fossilised social structure, nor as the supremacy of the political
over the economic in anew form of the struggle for power.
Imperialism will be seen as resulting from the qualitatively and
quantitatively new distinctions between the industrial states and
the economically backward areas of the world, and from the new
world economic rivalry caused by industrial developments in the
advanced countries. The roots of imperialism will be seen in terms
of the relationships between foreign and domestic markets, crises
• of over-production, problems of the distribution of wealth, the
formation of cartels and monopolies, the interventionist role of
• the state in the economy and the problem Of "social imperialism"
:
-
imperialism as a deliberate attempt to disguise. domestic tensions.
