Study of the Formation of Multicultural Society Ⅱ
Through close reading and discussion of the latest research on Hawaiian history, the course will examine multicultural conviviality in its historical context.
The goal of this class is to form the basis for specialized research through the study of basic knowledge and research methods in history. Specifically, we will examine how the "knowledge" brought by American missionaries to the Kingdom of Hawaii in the first half of the 19th century affected the indigenous people.
In order to consider the relationship between Hawaiians and American missionaries in the early 19th century, we will discuss the "Christian Imperialism" discussed in American studies in the first half part of the class period. In the latter part, the influence of the missionaries on Hawaiian history will be examined based on the literature of Hawaiian historｙ. The schedule below might be changed depending on the progress of the class.
Students have to read the textbook in advance and have a presentation and discussions in each class.
