Title: Studies in German Language and Style: Contemporary Society, Politics, and Culture
Description: The course offers an introduction to German postwar art, society, and politics, featuring the paperwork of denazification and the miracles of economics, a grand coalition and an extra parliamentary opposition, urban guerilleros, squabbling historians, pop enthusiasts, unofficial collaborators, and the paperwork of reunification. Focus on the German obsession with being on time: From the Kulturfahrplan at the zero hour to the unfinished project of modernity, from an anachronistic procession to the mercy of late birth.
