REGIONAL IDENTITY AND OHIO HISTORY      3 Credit Hours

Catalog description

(Slashed with HIST 82500 ) As central as Ohio is in our national history, it is often underrepresented in standard historical narratives. This course explores the unfolding of more than two centuries of US history through the lens of the experience and understandings of residents of the State of Ohio. This changed perspective revisits many familiar themes --indigenous histories, immigration, labor conflict, the Great Depression -- but moving our attention from the coast to the interior often places them in a revealing new light.
