Revolutions is a subject for students who are passionate about History and who enjoy exploring key turning points in History in depth. We examine the causes and consequences of the French and Russian Revolutions in considerable detail. You do not need to have studied 20th Century Modern History to enrol but skills learnt in that subject do help you in your writing. There are very specific styles of writing in this subject. It is not essay after essay, but rather a series of short to medium length responses with particular defined structures.
You should do it study Revs because although it is very challenging, we explore the full gamut of crushed idealism, ethical conundrums, excessive violence and a dash of sexual intrigue. Issues raised are still very pertinent to our lives today and help us place our current world leaders in proper historical context.
