This course is an examination of the representation of war in a number
of major comic strip albums.  We will look at ways of constructing
historical narratives, questions of memory and the ideological
implications of choices in image creation.  Strips will include "The
Beast is Dead" by Calvi; "Maus" by Art Spiegelmann and albums by
Herge.  All are available in English translation.  The course will be
conducted as a discussion.
