CPLT 070. Writing and Screening the Nation: A Comparative Perspective

(Cross-listed as FREN 070, GMST 070)
This course explores the continued relevance and resonance of the First and Second World War across European cultural productions, be they literary, cinematic or graphics works. More specifically, through a comparative lens of mostly French and German works, we investigate how these works participate in the formation and re-shaping of national and transnational memories: the relationship between what disappears, what remains, and what re-emerges in that process.
