The final exam will take place on Tuesday, April 20, from 12pm (Pacific Time). You will have 24 hours to complete it (you will email it to me by 12pm Pacific Time the following day), but it is designed to take you no more than two and a half hours.
The exam is now available.
The exam itself will consist of two parts:
- The first part (40%) will comprise short discussions (definitions and descriptions) of key concepts. You will be given seven of these concepts, and asked to write a brief (paragraph or two) definition and description of each of them. In your account, you should both a) say something about the concept as it applies to the region in general and b) give at least one specific example from among the texts that we have studied or discussed and explain how this example illustrates the concept in question.
- The second part (60%) will comprise an essay in response to a question taken from a list of possible questions which have been provided in advance.
I will be online (at the usual Zoom link) for the first hour (12-1pm) to answer any questions you may have.
More details available here.
Good luck!
