Final Exam Question and Identifications


You will be asked to write on your choice of the following questions:

  1. Were the Germans culturally predisposed to Nazism?

    or

  2. Was the Nazi seizure of power, and the ensuing perpetration of the Holocaust, avoidable? Why or why not?

Both questions are very broad; in thinking about the topic, plan to write for about an hour.

Also, remember that I'll ask a short (two paragraphs or so) essay question on Primo Levi's book, Survival in Auschwitz.
