Febe Armanios

Professor Armanios is great and cares so much about what she teaches. The class goes fast and a lot of content is covered, but I went from knowing virtually nothing about these countries to feeling comfortable with their modern histories. Based on lectures and exams are mostly papers. I'd recommend to anyone who wants to put in the work, it was a good experience.

I took this class as a First Year and found that it was a great class for my first semester. The lectures were very informative and fast paced. As long as you take notes on everything, the entire lecture you will be okay. There is a lot of material from the 600s to the mid 1400s so this class covers a lot of different perspectives over a long period. Discussions were helpful as they allowed us to synthesize what we learned. You are expected to do the readings for discussion which were usually excerpts. There was 2 books we read and a paper on each. Other than that, this class was very easy as long as you do a little reading each day.

Professor Armanios is a great professor and you can tell that she is deeply passionate about the topic. This class is at 8:40 but she makes lectures interesting, engaging, and fast paced so you don't end up feeling tired in her class. Papers can be a bit difficult because they're 1250 words and Professor Armanios has high standards of writing, but you should be good if you have detailed notes from the readings/class books.
