Learning outcomes
The aim of this course is to outline the polarity of "big" (political and military) and "diminutive" (economic, social, cultural) history in the 16th - 18th centuries, focusing on the latter ones, since these surrender to fashionable methodological trends of the current day to a great extent (everyday history, historical anthropology, history of mentalities, micro-history, gender history). At the beginning, the impulses of Western European historiography are considered (especially French) and this is considered against concrete examples from the Czech lands.
The student should orientate in the alternative views on history of early modern times (history of everyday life and history of life styles of different social groups).
