This online class explores Boston's remarkable history a century at a time, inspired by historic buildings and other sites that help tell the story. We’ll highlight key aspects of the 17th to 19th centuries in Boston, in political, religious, and cultural domains. How did conflict between British colonists and Native Americans come to a head in a 17th century war of resistance? How did a revolutionary fight for liberty coexist with slavery? How did waves of immigration change the city, and where do we see the traces? We’ll touch on all of these topics and more, alongside relevant historic sites. And because Boston's history is central to U.S. history, we'll find implications that reach far and wide. The course will include illustrated talks with time for discussion. Instructor: Elizabeth Merrick
This class will meet for 3 Wednesdays online using Zoom.
