Reading, evaluation, and discussion of selected writers, works, or literary topics. May be taken twice for a maximum of six credit hours.

World War II has been called “the defining moment of the Twentieth Century,” and this course examines its influences into everyday life today in the Twentieth-First Century. We will focus on the many ways that WWII has been portrayed in different literary genres. Texts will include the Graphic novel Maus, portions of the short story collection Berlin Stories by Christopher Isherwood, the satiric novel Catch-22, and The Science Fiction / War Novel mash-up Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut. Students will analyze literary themes such as the rise of Nazism and Nazi Extermination Camps, the absurdity of war, and the individual’s duty to society in wartime. Requirements include the program’s field trip to Dachau, completion of reading journals, quizzes, (2) short papers and (2) essay exams.

The University of New Orleans International Summer School program has a mandatory class attendance policy. All students are required to attend class for all morning classes and any required afternoon and/or weekend fields trips and lectures. No unexcused absences are allowed. However, LFU students who have to miss a UNO class due to LFU examinations in the first two weeks of our program, can receive one excused absence for this. Any further unexcused absences will result in an academic penalty. Each faculty member determines the penalty for missed classes. Most professors deduct a letter grade for each additional missed class day. For details, please refer to your course syllabi, which will be distributed on the first day of class. The listed ECTS credits are a recommendation by the University of New Orleans Innsbruck Summer School, based on contact hours, anticipated out-of-classroom requirements such as field trips, and projected workload for readings, assignments, and exam preparation.
