GERMAN

Weimar Republic: Literature and Culture
NEWARK
GRMN 455 (3) Shafi
Wed., 6:00 p.m.-9:00 p.m.
Course ID: GRMN-455-010

Between 1918 and 1933 Germany experienced an unprecedented intellectual and artistic explosion which came to a sudden end with Hitler's dictatorship. The turbulent years from the end of World War I until 1933 are known as the Weimar Republic, a time in which literature, the arts and sciences, as well as new forms of entertainment (films, revues) flourished. "The Golden Twenties," another name given to this period, evokes an aura of nostalgia and mystique that belies, however, the tremendous political, economic and social tensions Germany was faced with. Through literature, films and works of art we will examine some of the main artistic, political, and social developments of this period and explore its rich and fascinating cultural scene. We will read works by authors such as Brecht, Döblin, Kästner, and Anna Seghers, listen to music (Brecht/Weill), look at visual art and explore the emergence of cinema and the importance of American culture. Prerequisites: any three 300-level German courses, which must include GRMN 311 Introduction to Modern German Literature or GRMN 355 Special Topics in German Literature.
