This course will examine representations of Jews in American culture and the evolution of Jewish-American culture since World War II, as well as how shifts in the cultural conversation about minorities in America have affected our understanding of Jewish identity. We will question how recent works of literature, art, film, and television challenge and reinforce Jewish stereotypes, and how they continue to shape our ideas about assimilation, the Holocaust, ethnicity, and religious practice in America.

The Sixth Commandment is succinct: "Thou shalt not commit murder." And yet descriptions of murder feature prominently in Western literature and culture. Why are we so engaged by the telling of these grim tales, and what is at stake in their being told? By analyzing the challenges of shaping coherent narratives around incomprehensible acts, this course examines the ethical and aesthetic implications of mediating a phenomenon as elusive, and terrifyingly actual, as murder.
