Russia, America and the World
TABLE:
Taxonomies of historical experience, KEY WORDS,
with linkages to appropriate SAC entries and sources

As you prepare for the MIDTERM and then later for the FINAL exams, you may use the following table.

The five numbered columns from the left indicate the "taxonomic levels of historical experience" [ID] to which the item identified in the next column relates.

The next column, "Word", contains key items relevant to our "shared histories".

The columns named "MIDTERM" and "FINAL" follow and offer hypertext links relevant to each of these exams.
Notice that these columns sometimes indicate LOOPS [ID], and that means LOOP on the keyword indicated in the column to the left named "Word [source]"

Both exams will be structured in such a way that thorough preparation based on your exploration of the relevant hypertext hops will prepare you well.
The hops will both remind you of work already completed and alert you to work you might yet still need to do before the exams.

The final column, "SOURCE" indicates the most important of our course readings relating to the "Word" listed on that row.

To prepare for the MIDTERM EXAM, concentrate on the hypertext links found in the column named "MIDTERM" below.
When you see related sources enclosed in brackets, hop to them as well.

For the FINAL EXAM, concentrate on the hypertext links found in the column named "FINAL", and, again, be alert to sources in brackets that appear in other cells on that row.

The exams will ask you to use your ability to identify, yes, but mainly to describe the historical meaning of the entries in the column named "Word".
The essential point of the exam is to express the significance of certain items to our study of the Russian/USA "shared historical" experience.
