  • H 367: Europe in the Era of World War

    3.00 Credits
    Saint Mary's University of Minnesota

    3 credits This course is an introduction to Europe's "thirty year crisis," from the outbreak of World War I i1914 to the end of World War II in 1945. Europe's period of progress and optimism was shattered by the "Great War" in 1914. Four years of violence created the crucible out of which the monsterof fascism arose. This led to an even larger war only twenty years later. During WWII, mass slaughter became commonplace, from the Nazi Holocaust to the Allies' strategic bombing campaigns, which targeted civilian populations. Using a variety of sources, the course examines the big picture of great power confrontations, but also how the wars were experienced by individuals.
