Imagining the Second World War

Catalog description

The Second World War was one of the most shattering and destructive conflicts in human history. Fought on every continent but Antarctica, its effects lasted far beyond the six years of armed conflict between 1939 and 1945. Through fiction, memoir and film, this course will explore the War as it was experienced by contemporaries and re-imagined by survivors. Additional hours outside of class time will be required for film screenings and field trips.
