欧洲文明

本课程提供从三十年战争到第二次世界大战结束的欧洲近代史的广泛调查。 考虑到一些重大事件和人物如法国大革命和拿破仑，把注意力放在了一般人在这个动乱和过渡时期的经历上。 因此审视这段期间的历史我们应该通过人口变化、 政治革命和文化发展的复杂关系这一镜头来观察，而不是单纯的将它视为历史的必然性，或者是伟大人物的安排，课本中还将穿插一些对艺术作品、 文学和电影的值得效仿的研究的学习。

This course offers a broad survey of modern European history, from the end of the Thirty Years' War to the aftermath of World War II. Along with the consideration of major events and figures such as the French Revolution and Napoleon, attention will be paid to the experience of ordinary people in times of upheaval and transition. The period will thus be viewed neither in terms of historical inevitability nor as a procession of great men, but rather through the lens of the complex interrelations between demographic change, political revolution, and cultural development. Textbook accounts will be accompanied by the study of exemplary works of art, literature, and cinema.
