Here is a list of the viva voce prompts, I hope that your review goes smoothly! To ease the challenges of preparing over the Thanksgiving holiday, I have decided to allow students to delay their viva until the following week (Dec. 5-8) if they prefer. Happy Thanksgiving!
- Was Martin Luther a reformer or a revolutionary? (Discussion-based, no slides)
- How did the transition from the medieval to the modern era transform popular conceptions of history?
- How did protestant reforms reflect the growth of individualism?
- How did theology influence the political goals of the Puritans in England?
- In what ways is Rousseau's thought misunderstood?
- In what ways was the American War of Independence not a revolution?
- How did the 1890s set the tone for the twentieth century?
