HIST 306 Holocaust: Problems and Interpretations Units: 6.00
Holocaust historiography is often divided into perpetrators, victims, bystanders, and collaborators. We will examine evidence illustrative of each category. Examples: the Wannsee Conference (perpetrators); Anne Frank's Diary (victim); Vatican archival records (bystanders); documentary about the head of a ghetto (victim, collaborator, or both?).
