Advanced Composition, Literature and the Arts, and Western Compartv Cult course.
"This course satisfies the General Education Criteria for a Advanced Composition, Literature and the Arts, and Western Compartv Cult course. Same as CWL 271 and ENGL 268. Prerequisite: Completion of the Campus Composition I general education requirement. This course examines cultural representations of the Holocaust in literature, film, and critical essays. Starting with a discussion of contemporary memory culture in the US and Germany, the course introduces students to the historical context of the Third Reich, the Holocaust, and the Second Word War. We then turn to a variety of postwar texts, including memoirs, poems, essays, memorials, documentary and feature film, to explore how Jewish and non- Jewish writers have dealt with issues of perpetration, survival, trauma, and memory in postwar German culture and beyond."
