Aims, contents and method of the course

This proseminar offers an exploration into key topics in the history of Cyprus drawn from the late Ottoman period through British rule, the anti-colonial struggle and the island's complex developments after the establishment of independence. Students will engage with primary and secondary sources to examine themes such as nationalism, identity, the impact of colonialism, intercommunal relations and the ongoing division of the island. Through guided discussions and presentations of research topics, students will develop critical analytical skills and gain a nuanced understanding of modern Cypriot history and culture within a broader social, political and regional context.
