1 HIST 4390 TOTALITARIAN EUROPE Dr. Katherine Zubovich Office Hours: MW 1:30-2:30 pm Office: 601 Stabler Hall Upper-Level Course MWF 12:00-12:50 pm Ross Hall 122 This class examines the history of totalitarian politics, societies, and cultures as they emerged, developed, and came to an end in twentieth-century Europe. Over the course of the semester, we will compare and contrast three main cases: Italy, the Soviet Union, and Germany. Alongside our study of these cases, we will also examine the emergence of the concept of totalitarianism by reading and discussing texts by some of the era s most astute fight-hand observers, from Hannah Arendt to Vaclav Havel. Our course texts also include primary source documents, from films to memoirs, and secondary sources written by historians. Nearing the end of the semester, we will turn our attention to the legacy of totalitarianism in Europe in discussions about historical memory, commemoration, and the rise of the far-right in Europe today. Students will engage actively with both primary and secondary sources and they will hone their research and writing skills in four short newspaper reports and a final research paper. Course Readings Required texts: 1. Hannah Arendt, Totalitarianism (Part 3 of The Origins of Totalitarianism) 2. Heda Margolius Kovaly, Under a Cruel Star: A Life in Prague, The above texts are available at the UALR Bookstore for purchase and have also been placed on short-term course reserve at Ottenheimer Library. All other required readings are posted on Blackboard. There you will also find an online version of this syllabus, writing manuals, as well as images, music, films, and maps shown in class. General (and optional) reading material and historical timelines, which you may wish to reference for background information, are also posted on Blackboard.

2 A Note on Format The format of this course alternates between lecture and discussion, as marked on the course schedule. Most of our class meetings will be discussions. Lectures are intended simply to relay basic historical narratives that will help lay the groundwork for our discussions. Lectures will be informal and participatory. Attendance, Active Participation, and Punctuality Your attendance and active participation in our discussions are essential components of your final grade. You may miss up to three meetings without penalty. Save these permitted absences for unavoidable situations, such as sickness or emergencies. Exceptions will, of course, be made for extenuating circumstances. Be sure to discuss your situation with me if such circumstances arise. Please avoid being late, since this is disruptive to the discussion. A note on participation Different people have different ways they best participate, all of which are valid: active listening, thoughtful preparation, sharing a well-formulated idea or question after a long pause, helping a classmate understand a concept, coming to office hours. If you do not regularly speak in class, please be sure to find other ways to make contributions and demonstrate your understanding of the readings. Writing Assignment Specs All reports are due at the beginning of class on the date specified in the syllabus. Papers must be double-spaced, typed in Times New Roman 12-point font, with 1-inch margins. Your papers should be carefully written and closely proofread. Consider making use of resources available at the University Writing Center: If you require an extension on a report or paper deadline, be sure to speak with me at least one week ahead of time to request and arrange this. Academic Integrity All assignments are required to reflect original and independent work. Plagiarism not acceptable under any circumstance is the use of intellectual material produced by another person without acknowledging its source. A good rule of thumb is: when in doubt, cite. If you have any questions do not hesitate to see me. Please consult the university s policies on academic integrity, available at Another good source on plagiarism and how to avoid it can be found at Purdue s Online Writing Lab ( When referencing books, articles, and other sources in the papers you write for this class, you are required to include citations in Chicago Style, unless otherwise stated. We will spend time in class before papers are due talking about why, when, and how to cite. Students with Disabilities Your success in this class is important to me, and it is the policy and practice of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock to create inclusive learning environments consistent with federal and state law. If you have a documented disability (or need to have a disability documented), and need an accommodation, please contact me privately as soon as possible, so that we can discuss with the Disability Resource Center (DRC) how to meet your specific needs and the 2
3 requirements of the course. The DRC offers resources and coordinates reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities. Reasonable accommodations are established through an interactive process among you, your instructor(s), and the DRC. Thus, if you have a disability, please contact me and/or the DRC, at (V/TTY) or (VP). For more information, please visit Course Objectives In this course, students will: o Learn the key events and major figures of twentieth-century European history; o Analyze how historical narratives and concepts (like totalitarianism ) are created and have evolved over time; o Use critical thinking and analytical skills to examine and discuss primary and secondary sources; o Use evidence from textual and visual sources to draw conclusions and support arguments about the past in both verbal and written form; o Develop research skills first-hand in assignments that call for the use of newspaper and other online databases; o Craft a research question and develop a thesis statement that convincingly answers this question for the final research paper; o Prepare feedback and deliver constructive criticism on a peer s draft research paper; o Write, revise, and submit a polished research paper that demonstrates mastery of the analytical and writing skills developed during the semester.
