HISTORY 437CWI
The Third Reich, 1930-1950
|
|
|
This course traces the history of the Third Reich--its origins, nature, and crimes against humanity--from its first electoral successes in the Great Depression to the trials of its leaders for various war crimes. At its center stand the challenging questions of the ethical and historical responsibility for the Holocaust. It will ask students to think critically about the relationship between state and society and the roles played by 'elite' and 'ordinary' people in shaping this tragic era of German and European history. This reading- and writing-intensive course will be run as a seminar. Final grades will be based on a portfolio of assignments o which students will select what they consider to be the best examples of their work. Prerequisites: HISTORY 202, HISTORY 208 or equivalent
