GERM 10.06 Look! A Visual History of Germany

This course explores Germany's history from pre-modernity to the present through visual sources ranging from medieval manuscripts to contemporary film. Students analyze the iconography of major social, political, and artistic events and developments by “reading” posters, paintings, architectural plans, newspaper illustrations, and art installations as well as “texts" in other visual media. Analyzing such visual evidence of German history, intermediate learners of German will refine their grammar, expand their vocabulary, and improve their listening, speaking, and writing skills. Conducted in German.
