History of Germany

Reformation, unification, empire, dictatorship, division and reunification

Trace key transformations in German-speaking Central Europe and the modern German state: the Protestant Reformation, nineteenth-century imperial institutions, World War I, Nazism and Holocaust, the Federal Republic, the GDR and the end of the Cold War. Earlier territories and Prussia are not equated with present-day Germany. The films require critical reading, especially when representing German perpetrators, resistance or marginalized peoples.
