Collide
(PermReq) Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD In the late
eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries,
America, France and Greece all expereinced
political revolutuions that marked a
fundamental breakwith the recent past.
Individuals such as Thomas Jefferson and
Napoleon Bonaparte were directly involved
in those revolutions, but at the same time
theywere actively and deeply engaged with
the distant past. Earlier excavations at
Pompeii and Herculaneum had revealed how
much of the past the earth mightstill
hold; those excavations also represented
the birth of scientific archaelogy and
they even contributed to the development
of Charles Lyell's geological theories. In
America, Thomas Jefferson himself
excavated a prehistoric burial mound,
while Charles Willson Peale recovered the
skeleton of a mastodon that he displayed
in the New World's first museum.
Napoleon's invasion ofEgypt led to the
discovery and decipherment of the Rosetta
Stone and sparkedthe first wave of
Egyptomania that was to sweep over the
western world. Traditional education in
the Classics and Romantic poetry together
inspired young men from both England and
America to measure, accurately record, and
and restore ancient architecture, to
search for (and appropriate) classical
Greek statues, and to fight in the Greek
War for Independence. In this seminar, we
will explore the exploration of the past
that took place during an age of
revolution, romanticism, and rediscovery.
Our approach will be interdisciplinary;
our goal will be to learn about pioneers
in rediscovery who livedin an age that saw
great progress both in the humanties and
in the sciences. Also listed as HONR 300G.
