GRM 360 Crime in German Culture
Our topic is "Verbrechen, Recht, und Gerechtigkeit" (crime, law, and justice). Crime literature, or "der Krimi," often dismissed as simple entertainment, reflects societal fears, hopes, and the zeitgeist of different eras. We will explore how crime, law, and justice are portrayed in German-speaking history. Through reading, analysis, and literary theory, we'll strengthen skills and enhance vocabulary and grammar for more precise writing.
