Arthur Goldhammer visit April 17

HIST 362 will be graced next Tuesday with a visit by a leading scholar on French politics, Arthur Goldhammer of Harvard's Center for European Studies. He will speak with us about his chapter on French political parties, which is assigned reading and available from electronic reserve here (sign-in required).

After class on that day, he has agreed to meet informally with students interested in discussing further his work, the state of the election campaign and related topics. If you are interested in joining this informal conversation, please let me know via email before next Tuesday's class.

Tuesday evening, at 7:30pm, he will deliver a public lecture in the College of Liberal Arts Forum Lecture series, on the role of political parties in this year's campaign. All HIST 362 students are encouraged to attend and those who do and write a one-page summary as part of next week's reading log will receive extra credit towards their discussion grade.
