GETR 2770 - Germany: Past and Present

Effective Date 01/01/2019
What does it mean for a country to confront its past, define its present, and imagine its future? This course will introduce you to modern German history and culture by looking at the interaction between culture and memory. We will approach the cities of Berlin and Weimar not just as a collection of streets and buildings, but as multi-layered cultural and historical texts. On-site visits will combine lectures with active student participation.
