Thomas Jefferson: Up Close and Personal – HIST 630-1

This course examines the personal life of Thomas Jefferson through a variety of primary sources.  Using Jefferson’s letters, account books, and memoranda, students will learn about the details of his daily life: the minutiae of his law practice; accounts of his purchases; his relationships with friends, family and slaves.  The focus will be Jefferson the man rather than Jefferson the politician and political philosopher.  Note:  This class will connect with a group in Falls Church, Virginia via digital video conferencing.
