Eugene V. Gallagher and Patricia O’Connell have influenced a
generation of religious studies professors through their leadership
in Wabash Center teaching workshops. In this book, contributors pay
tribute to their influence and build on their insights in short
essays focused on three perennial themes: Place, Plan, and Persona.
Firstly, the book considers how negotiating your institutional
context is essential to effective teaching. Reflections include
essays on places of learning, the interaction between person and
place, and the online teaching environment. Secondly, the
contributors explore how effective teaching requires intentional
self-critical design of students’ intellectual experience, from
the arc of the course, to the scope and purpose of the curriculum.
Topics include planning for playfulness, teaching
‘strangeness’, and strengthening student engagement. In the
final section on persona, topics include humour in the classroom,
authenticity in the teaching profession, team teaching, and
ungrading. This book contributes to the scholarship of teaching and
learning in religious studies and higher education by engaging
Gallagher and Killen’s insights, and by exploring a range of
perspectives on core and enduring pedagogical concepts and
questions.
Modern Russian History: The Search for National Identity and Global
Power exposes readers to the rich history of Russia, emphasizing
the major forces and factors that shaped its development as a
nation and an empire. Students are encouraged to draw connections
between influential forces and factors, both historical and
contemporary, to better understand Russia's past and current
strategic goals, as well as the Russian sense of identity and place
in global society. The opening chapter introduces key themes and
factors of Russian history, including the physical setting; the
role of the autocratic state; the institution of serfdom; the
multinational empire; and the West, each of which represent
challenges and opportunities the Russian people and the nation's
rulers have encountered over time. The book features five distinct
parts, which proceed in chronological order and cover late imperial
Russia, the 1917 Russian revolutions, the creation of the USSR, the
Cold War and tensions with the United States, and post-Soviet
Russia and modern events. Modern Russian History is part of the
Cognella History of Europe Series, a collection of textbooks that
help students discover the power, influence, and dynamic nature of
European countries and their histories.
