Capstone: Writing British History

Catalog description

The Capstone Seminar represents the culmination of the history major at NYU, in which students design, research, and write an original paper on a topic of their choosing. Writing British History introduces students to a variety of episodes in the historiography of modern Britain, from the wars against the French Revolution to Britain in the 21st century, including in each case a range of available primary sources that position students to contribute to that ongoing conversation.
