Germanies: History vs Culture - 20028

The courses in this connection explore the historical reality and cultural concept of Germany from the sometimes compatible, sometimes contradictory, perspectives of history and German studies. GER 276  or GER 376  examine 20th century Germany through novels, films and other art forms. Topics in HIST 240  include the unification of Germany under Bismarck, Germany and World War I, Weimar culture, the rise of National Socialism, the Holocaust and World War II, the Wall, Berlin and reunification. Only one of the German courses counts towards fulfilling this connection.
