Biography

Jason Strandquist received his B.A. in History from the University of Illinois and his M.A. and Ph.D. from Pennsylvania State University. A specialist in the social impact of religious change in German-speaking Europe, his current research compares early-modern and present-day attitudes to games and sports, suggesting that these reflect deeper historical trends in religious thought and practice. At Union, Dr. Strandquist teaches World Civilization and Geography surveys, and upper-division history courses on Modern Europe, the French Revolution and Napoleon, and Renaissance and Reformation. A new course, tentatively entitled 鈥淗istory of the Germanies: Central Europe from the Renaissance to Cold War鈥 is in development. He lives in Jackson with his wife and dogs.
