The Photomontages of John Heartfield: A Provocative Teaching Tool for "Landeskunde."
Mathieu, Gustave Bording
Unterrichtspraxis/Teaching German, v25 n1 p49-63 Spr 1992
A case is made for the use of the politically provocative photomontages of Heartfield (a.k.a. Berlin-born Helmut Herzfeld) in the German classroom. The interplay of language, art, culture, and history makes them especially useful as realia. A model for teaching them is presented, including a chronology and nine reproductions. (Author/LB)
