Whatever you think of Vladimir Putin, one thing is true: he has made post-Soviet Russia a global power player … as were the Soviet Union under the Communist Party & the Russian Empire under the tsars before that. To understand Putin or Putin’s Russia, however, one must get a clearer sense of last 150 years of Russia’s history. This course will give you a survey of political, cultural, social, & economic aspects of Russian & Soviet history from the late imperial period to the present. We will attempt to cut through the layers of stereotype & political agenda that have so often consigned Russia to the “weird wing” of the world history museum. This course is open to all majors. You need no Russian language to take the course. For HIS majors & minors, this counts as an upper-level European history course. Questions: Julie_deGraffenried@baylor.edu

India, between 1000 and 1750 CE, was marked by conflict and co-existence. Weakened regional states gave way to the steady
influx of Muslim forces from Central Asia. The Islamic and Indic collide and collaborate bringing a new energy to the realm. Equipped with advancements in trade and technology, they
fostered one of the greatest economies on the planet. Focusing on the emergence of the Islamicate regimes, the flourishing of
syncretistic devotional sects, and the rise of powerful empires, we will explore the distinctive trends in politics, religion, literature, art, architecture, and trade that marked this dynamic realm and
put the “maha” in Maharaja.
