If you buy all of the books from me I will also throw in all of my class material (notes, papers, etc.)! It breaks down some of the subject material and gives you an idea of what is important to know.

LOVED THIS CLASS. Great professor and very engaging lectures. Incorporates photos from his own travels in his lectures. My TA was Karime - she was awesome, very fair grader and super helpful. Would 10/10 recommend. Wasn't even that interested in subject material but after the class I feel very enlightened on the topic and more interested in it. You don't have to attend lectures since the class is really large. He mentions on the first day that they aren't trying to grade people down, or do the whole 20% As, 20% Bs thing...they just want everyone to do their best and their grade will be representative of it. Very fair class overall.
This class had a lot of readings but was very easy and low maintenance. I did not go to class much but could still keep up. Also the readings are not necessary and you can bs your way through. The midterm and essay are also very easy because he tells you exactly what to study. He is also really nice and chill as a professor. There are also two short papers but the history writing center can help a lot with those. Easy class would recommend as GE
Attend the lectures! He summarizes the reading and it can help figure what you want to write about for the essay/midterm and what readings you'll find the appropriate information in - which is always super helpful. It doesn't hurt that he speaks and teaches in a super interesting way. I really liked the class with Terraciano.
This class was easy just a lot of readings but the essays were easy, and the midterm and final were also easy. All the questions were given beforehand either directly or similarly in the study guide. It does not matter too much if you go to lecture but it does help sometimes. Slides are posted but not a lot is explained on slides. Overall discussion was short and simple. I had a good TA so it was fairly easy. There are weekly discussions of questions you answer online but they are easy points and aren't really graded on accuracy just on completion.
the class was a lot of review from AP Spanish 5. It was very interesting and simple. He just gives a heavy load of readings but I got by with just skimming them. I have 2 of the books he uses and I am selling them. contact me at ************* for purchase:
Mesoamerican voices
Letters and People of the Spanish Indies (16th century)
I recommend this class to any history majors or anyone looking for an interesting GE, the professor is great and gives very engaging lectures.
I am selling the blue and red course readers the red one has notes on it that can be useful. They are $15 for both. Please email me at ************* if interested or text me at **********.
I am also selling Children of God's Fire for $10 and Letters and People of the Spanish Indies for $5.
This was a pretty good class. Prof. Terraciano is definitely a good professor. The class is pretty interesting but a lot of reading as you need to buy 5 books for this class. Technically you don't have to do them all. You can just selectively read for the two essays and the midterm. However, I found that preparing for the final can be tough if you don't do the readings. Other than the readings, there isn't much work at all in this class. Pretty much all of the grading is done by your TA as others have mentioned so hope for a good TA. The midterm was really easy, just one essay question and then easy vocab. The final is tougher though. Two essays and a matching section where you match quotes with authors. It's not really hard, just a lot of preparation. Overall, I'd recommend this class.
History 8A was a very well taught class, Terraciano is extremely passionate about the subject and definitely expresses that passion through lecture. TA's play a big part in your grade.
