Comments
In this seminar, students are invited to explore the role of agriculture in China and Mesopotamia. Both China and Mesopotamia have served in different ways as canvases for historians, past and present, to develop their ideas about the historical formation of society, economy and knowledge making. Engaging with this secondary literature we have another look at primary sources and new theory building in the field of history. The comparative perspective is chosen to enhance critical thinking about the nature of historical sources. close
