English 48--Holocaust Literature
Final Essay
Research paper--Holocaust Literature
In this class, we have read about the Jewish Holocaust, the Darfur genocide, and the genocide of Rwanda while examining definitions of genocide and parallels between each example of genocide covered in class.
What are we missing from this discussion? In a 7-8 page research paper, please write about some aspect of genocide or the Jewish Holocaust that we did not have time to explore in class. You can look at a specific historic incident within a genocide, or explore the legal aspects of prosecuting genocide.
Here are some possible topics:
Current examples of genocide in the world
Rehabilitation after genocide
Psychological trauma and genocide
Legal developments in prosecuting acts of genocide
Reconciliation post-genocide
Artists responding to genocide
