韩思成：法国史

This course provides students with a general overview of French history during the reigns of Louis XIII and Louis XIV (1610-1715). Key topics in the political, social, economic, and religious history of this important period will be covered, with a focus on understanding scholarly debates in the historical literature and on reading and understanding various types of primary sources. A particular theme running through the entire semester will be the historical controversy surrounding the rise of the ‘absolute monarchy’ in seventeenth-century France. In examining this topic, the course will provide students with a deeper understanding of pre-industrial European societies, and of the long-term background to the French Revolution.

There will be an emphasis on developing students’ abilities in source criticism, academic writing, and presentation skills.

Students are not required to have any prior knowledge of French history or the French language.

课 程 要 求

Students are required to read the set readings (a primary source and two articles each week) and be prepared to contribute to class discussions. The primary sources are relatively short (3-5 pages long) and are all included in the course handbook. The two articles set for each week are available on the PKU page for this course or can be downloaded from JSTOR. The lecturer will also set up a WeChat group, in which PDFs of the secondary readings will be posted each week.
