Great job to everyone on the first unit. I was very pleased with the
exam scores, and especially the amount of preparation everyone displayed
through their notebooks. Hopefully you now have a sense of the rhythm
of the course and what it takes to be successful. As we move into the
next unit we are making a dramatic turn back to the origins of the Modern Period. At the same time, we will be adjusting to some very different textual materials and historiographical trends. Please ask lots of questions in class as you gain your footing on this unfamiliar ground.
