MAHG 5020 THE CHURCHES AND THE HOLOCAUST

Critical consideration of the silent Christian community, its role in facilitating the Holocaust (Shoah), and its legacy of passivity and complicity in the face of evil. The course will probe the contradiction between the ethical, religious, and theological teachings of Christianity and the hermeneutics contributing to a climate of anti-Semitism culminating in the Shoah.
