Adolf Hitler and the Rise and Fall of Nazi Germany (Degree – Advanced)

COURSE Code: HIST 401

Course Description

Adolf Hitler is widely considered history’s ultimate mass murderer. And yet the country that came to regard him as its savior after its defeat in World War One, and followed him to ruin at the conclusion of World War Two, was famously known for its great music, art, literature, philosophy and science. How could such a civilized country as Germany become complicit in the genocide of six million Jews, and the deaths of millions of other men, women and children considered by Hitler and the Nazis to be racially inferior? In Adolf Hitler and the Rise and Fall of Nazi Germany we will try to answer this and related questions that have left a dark stain on the history of the 20th century.
