H-CivWar is H-Net's network on scholarship, teaching, and outreach on the history of the American Civil War.

The H-CivWar Network: Scope, Content, Purpose.

H-CivWar exists so scholars of the Civil War era can communicate with each other using this innovative and exciting new technology. This is primarily, though not exclusively, an academic list. The full, open, and mature discussion of the Civil War era (sectionalism, the war, and reconstruction) is welcome.

Our discussions can include any of the following topics: current research and research interests; methods and tools of analysis; reviews of primary and secondary sources; calls for papers, conferences, grants, fellowships, and even job opportunities. H-Net also posts a list of job opportunities which embraces a variety of fields.

H-CivWar is a forum for exploring the approaches, methods, and tools used in teaching history to graduate and undergraduate students. Syllabi, reading lists, and examinations are all valuable subjects for discussion. The Civil War era can not be isolated in the study of this nation's history. Any analysis of the Civil War era is empty without a good understanding of the Jacksonian and Republican eras, urban and rural history, etc. Therefore, some overlap between H-Net lists is expected and welcome, and you are invited to introduce discussions from other forums and disciplines.
