AHIS 251 - Americans in Paris, 1789-1968 3 s.h. This course will broaden your perspectives on US history by highlighting one of the many ways it connects to other people’s and countries’ histories: US Americans’ experiences (as tourists, exiles, journalists, writers, artists and diplomats) in the world city of Paris between the two French revolutions of 1789 and 1968. Learn about Americans in the French Revolution, about why Paris has served as a preferred American exile, and about how French culture and fashion have influenced American lives. We will also study US-French political relations and look at Parisian (and wider French public) views of “les Americains”. A-E Only. Offered every other year. LA Prerequisite(s): 18 s.h. of 100 level coursework.
