SST 580 - Germany: Culture and Contradictions


Students will explore some of the highpoints of German culture, such as the medieval castle at Nurnberg, the workshop of renaissance artist Albrecht Durer, the baroque churches of Munchen, the art galleries of Munchen, Weimar, and Berlin, as well as the warm and friendly culinary culture of Germany. They will contrast this with the barbarism of concentration camps at Dachau, Buchenwald, and Sachsenhausen, as well as the Reichsparteitagsgelande in Nurnberg and various Nazi-related sites in Berlin. Finally, students will explore Germany’s attempt to regain its identity and come to terms with its past at places such as the International Military Tribunal museum in Nurnberg and the Museum Deutscher Widerstand in Berlin.
