- Students will demonstrate a foundational command of the history of the Holocaust, situated within the context of European history of the first decades of the 20th century, the rise of Nazism and its racial policies, and World War II.
- Students will demonstrate an overview of representations of the Holocaust from a variety of countries and in an array of media, in order to understand how these works of memory are responsive to the context in which they are created and how they are used by various constituents to engage the public in issues of social justice.
- Students will demonstrate the relationship between their study of Holocaust history and remembrance with larger historical trajectories (e.g., modern Germany, modern Jewish history, World War II, Antisemitism), with related cultural practices (e.g., film, literature), with related intellectual issues (e.g., the ideology of fascism, the study of collective memory and of trauma), and/or other genocides.
