400CI Cc:Culture,Kultur,Civilisation:Identity Formation In the Middle Classes (3)

This cluster course will explore the dynamics of bourgeois class formation in Western Europe in the "long" 19th century (1750-1920) from historical, thematic, and theoretical perspectives. It will focus on how this class-based identity developed and functioned in the context of historical and cultural changes and how the bourgeoisie defined themselves vis a vis nobles, peasants, workers, "primitives," and criminals. Class assignments will include historical, literary, theatrical, anthropological, and cinemagraphic sources.
