GERM 44.05 Where the Wild Things Are: The Culture of Environmentalism in Germany (in English)

Long before it became a twenty-first century buzzword, “sustainability” (Nachhaltigkeit) was a term coined and propagated by nineteenth-century German pioneers of nature conservation. For inspiration they drew not on political thought or science, but on works of art, philosophy, and literature where nature—especially the forest—loomed large. This course will focus on culture as a primary vehicle for Germany’s ecological consciousness through the nineteenth century, the Third Reich, the Cold War, and the present.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
