Overview
This module will follow a single theme across a long chronological time span (encompassing Medieval, Early Modern and Modern history) and will focus on interpretation and debate. This approach will enable students to gain an understanding of historical continuities and discontinuities, an awareness of the importance of periodization and an appreciation of how and why historians specializing in different periods pose both similar and different research questions. The theme for 2014-15 will be the history of sport, leisure and entertainment.

Credits earned vary according to the policies of the students' home institutions. According to ISA policy and possible visa requirements, students must maintain full-time enrollment status, as determined by their home institutions, for the duration of the program.
ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) credits are converted to semester credits/quarter units differently among U.S. universities. Students should confirm the conversion scale used at their home university when determining credit transfer.
Please reference fall and spring course lists as not all courses are taught during both semesters.
