The initial part of the course will focus on analyzing key concepts in migration history and on exploring the possibilities and limits of interpretation of the main types of historical records. The core of the seminar will consist in reading and discussing recent scholarly texts on early modern mobility. Students are expected to do the assigned readings. An essential requirement will be that each student prepares an in-class presentation on a landmark of a migrant woman which will be added to an online database within the European COST Action Women on the Move.
