1. COURSE DESCRIPTION

Portugal and Spain were the first western countries to reach the Pacific shores, in the 15th Century.  Since then, their presence in the area has had a parallel evolution: before long, they lost their power and  capacity to benefit from their domains, later they lost interest and, in the case of Spain, was the first western country to be expelled from Asia- exactly 100 years ago. Portugal will be the last, next year, but the situation does not change essentially: its intercourse with the Asian peoples and its societies was different than that of northern Europeans. Throughout this course, we will discuss how various societies in Asia were shaped and influenced by Iberian governors, priests and/or soldiers, while at the same time we will discuss how native societies could manage to continue living their own lifes.

                It is not necessary for students to have a background on Spain and Portugal. Each topic will include introductory materials that will explain the changes in the Iberian Peninsula and/or its colonies from which Macao, Timor or the Philippines  were dependent, that is Goa and Mexico. The course will focus on Asia-Pacific  societies but it is very recommended (and enjoyable in the case of Elliott’s book) to study the larger context.

2. Readings

 

                There is no single text (in English, Spanish or Portuguese) covering the entire range of topics discussed in this course. There are, however, a number of interesting works that discuss Iberian expansion around the globe. In general, there will be three kinds of reading materials: Course Readings, Context Readings and Background Readings. The standards works in each of these categories are listed bellow.

                In preparation for each meeting of the class, students should read all required readings (that is, those indicated by an asterisk - *), which will generally be Course Readings and Context Readings. In addition, it is recommended that students read selectively from the background Readings. The weekly reading assignments are indicated bellow.

3.  Grading

 During the semester, each students shall make one oral presentation, write weekly book reviews and complete a research essay (these activities are described more fully bellow). Grades in the course will be computed in the following manner:

-          Discussion in class: 30%

-          Book reviews:  30%

-          Major research essay: 40 %

4. Assignment Guidelines

These three courses are described as follows:

                Weekly Reading Reviews and Class Discussions: Each week, every student will submit a two-to-three page analysis of the assigned readings, summarizing the main argument  and identifying the main questions raised by the authors. At the beginning of the class, each student shall deliver a short oral summary of the idea raised. These reviews will be placed in my mailbox at the History Department by 5:00pm the day before of our class meetings. In class, students will be asked to join discussion of the readings.

                Major Research Essay:  By October 2, each student will select a topic for a major research essay. By October 14, each students should submit a brief statement defining the major questions of your research project, together with a bibliography, or list of sources. The finished papers (15-20 pages) should be submitted by November 18. Each students will also be asked to discuss their papers in class and lead a discussion on the topic for approximately an hour. Topics should be discussed with me in advance. The research papers must be written according to a format that will be handed out later in class
