LIS 403 Nazi Cinema - 3 credits

Our culture’s fascination with Nazis and Nazi Germany is unending. Whether we are trying to understand how normal people can be swept up by a wave of fascism, or whether we are reincarnating Nazis as ultimate villains of our films, games, and other visual media, our fascination with fascism endures. The course includes both cinema from Nazi Germany and contemporary images of Nazis from Germany and beyond to better understand both sides of this fascination.
