FINAL PROJECT POSTED: ACHTUNG, BABY!

Hello all:
My final project has been linked on my bio page and can be found at http://mason.gmu.edu/~avonargy/womenoftheweimarrepublic.htm
Next semester I intend to expand the site reviews in number and in scope, as well as flesh out the bibliography section and create a complete (as close as time and materials will allow) English source/ reference list on the topic. I'll also have a good deal of work to do in the future with regard to images, graphics, and cool upgrades. I am eager to learn how to do all that stuff in Dr. Petrik's course next semester. Maybe then I can compete with some of you web designing gurus!
See you all tonight.

I liked your idea; I've taken courses on German history at the University of Nebraska with a Professor Edward Homze and although he was a Third Reich specialist we read a few books on the Weimar years -- a fascinating period. Nothing that I recall on women in Germany though. I'll look forward to seeing your final project -- good luck. (I would have loved to hit the clubs in Berlin during that decade.)

This sounds like a really interesting project. My knowledge of German history is quite limited, but it's always been focused on the great thinkers, artists,etc. and they're always men. And the joke in movies and such that often paints German women as somehow manly and/or overbearing. So this turns that stuff around a bit...I'll be looking forward to reading your findings.--Amy
