問題詳情
I enjoy taking elective courses, but choosing them is often difficult. There are a lot of choices, but it is hard to know in advance which courses will be suitable and interesting. Last semester, I took History of Western Civilization, because I wanted to understand the historical periods that form the background for British and American literature. Also, I was interested in comparing European history with Chinese history, because I thought these two regions had each produced a rich culture, and I was curious about their similarities and differences. The course did give me a general idea of the major historical periods in the West from classical to modern times. We also discussed key issues like the roles of church and state, the rise of individualism, and the effects of technological advance on various societies. Although this was only a general background for British and American literature, it was very helpful. I understood the basic character of the different historical periods, so I could focus on the ways in which the literary works reflected that background. The professor made only a few rough comparisons between Europe and China, but that turned out to be enough for me. I don’t think I could have absorbed much more, unless I also took further courses in Chinese history. In the end, I was quite satisfied with what I learned in this course, and would certainly recommend it to others.
