| NEU INT-HIST 3032 BRGE: Berlin: The Capital of the 20th Century | HIST 1990: History Elective (Berlin: The Capital of the 20th Century) | IC, SI | 4.00 | Yes | The twentieth century was known as the “age of extremes,” and Berlin was often at the forefront of its extremism and turbulence. But Berlin was not just a hotbed of militarism and aggression -- it was also a locus of technological and artistic innovation, social reform and workers’ organization, counterculture and peaceful, if improbable, revolution. Drawing upon primary and secondary sources, monuments, memorials, and museums, we will explore the various social, political, ideological, and artistic trends that shaped Berlin, Germany, and the world in the 20th century. We will think critically about how historical narratives are constructed; the relationship between historical memory, memorial, and responsibility; and what it means to be “modern.” This course draws upon the history of Germany -- and Berlin in particular -- to accomplish two goals: allowing students to develop a deeper understanding of their temporary home and serving as a workshop for university-level reading, writing, and presenting skills. Readings and assignments on the syllabus may be supplemented by skills workshops as the instructors deem necessary to meet the needs and interests of the class. | 11,022 | Berlin: The Capital of the 20th Century | NEU INT-HIST 3032 BRGE | Berlin: The Capital of the 20th Century | HIST 1990 | History Elective (Berlin: The Capital of the 20th Century) | 1 | 166.
