CLCS 3700 - Holocaust and Remembrance

This course provides an introduction to the study of cultural narratives (films, memories, poetry, and prose) related to the Holocaust. The primary source materials to be examined in this class include audio, textual, and visual media from several different national/linguistic traditions. In addition, we will study short selections of secondary source materials alongside each literary or cinematic narrative in order to illuminate the particular situational context of the events that it attempts to describe. There is no required prerequisite for this course.
