Program Description

COURSE INFORMATION:

Students will be enrolled in 3 credits of HIST 241: Special Topics in Modern European History - The Making of Germany


PROGRAM INFORMATION:

The modern work has been very much shaped by Germany, but what shaped Germany itself? This course proposes a long look at Germany history, from our first historical awareness of Germans on the periphery of the Roman Empire, to the reconstruction following the devastation of WWII. The main theme of the course will be "regionalism and nationalism" as we examine a "Germany" that was fragmented for most of its history. To that end, the course will explore two very different regions of Germany: the electoral principality of the archbishops of Cologne and the duchy (later kingdom) of Bavaria, with a stay in Munich.

Students should expect moderate walking on this program.
