Darcy Buerkle, “Weimar Imaginaries: Re-Reading George L. Mosse's Memoir”

Darcy Buerkle is Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of History at Smith College, where she is also an affiliate faculty member in the Program for the Study of Women and Gender. She is the author of numerous essays on Jewish visual and cinematic cultures and the history of emotion, including most recently on the work of director Fred Zinnemann; her book, Nothing Happened: Charlotte Salomon and an Archive of Suicide, was published in 2014 by the University of Michigan Press. Professor Buerkle’s current project concerns neglected and gendered imaginaries of democracy in early post-WWII Germany and, in particular, a rethinking of a well-established and gendered history of guilt and complicity after 1945.
