Description: |
This course will explore "Anti-Semitism" as a historical phenomenon and a rhetorical one from the end of the 18th Century until today, particularily in Germany. We also aim to examine the specific discoursive history of anti-semitic tropes –– with a special focus on the figure of the "enemy of the state." The course will examine a variety of genres of texts – historical documents, legal texts, theoretical / historiographic texts, cultural objects, newspaper articles, fictional narratives, state propeganda, etc. to explore the construction and political explotation of anti-semitic tropes, and the forms of state violence they explicitly or implicitly underwrite. Course language will English but opportunities for German minors and majors to work with German language primary materials. |
