FREN 104 SC - History, Memory, and Loss: Vichy (1940-45) in Contemporary France
In the late 1960s, France started to come to terms with its Fascist past and its complicity with the Holocaust. This course examines why and how French collective memory was reshaped a generation after the end of World War II. We will look at works by historians like Paxton, Rousso, Azema and Wieviorka; writers like Modiano, Duras, Raczymov, Finkielkraut; and filmmakers like Malle, Ophüls, Resnais, Lanzmann, and Losey. All students wishing to enroll in French language courses must take the Language Placement Test. Only those students who have had no more than one semester of high school French are exempt from taking this examination; they may enroll in FREN 001 SC - Introductory French . The lower-division program in French studies is part of Northern Colleges’ Joint French Program. Conversation groups are conducted by a native French speaker for all lower-division courses; hours are to be arranged.
Prerequisite(s): FREN 044 or equivalent.
Instructor: N. Rachlin
