Kurz si klade za cíl seznámit studenty s vývojem kultury ve střední Evropě ve druhé polovině 20. století. Tematicky se kurz věnuje široce chápanému pojmu kultury jako společenského prostoru, alternativního k politice. V oblasti umění je pozornost věnována literatuře, v menší míře filmu, fotografii či architektuře. Na příkladu kulturního prostředí lze zkoumat zásadní proměny středoevropské společnosti od zážitku, recepce a reflexe druhé světové války, přes „únos” střední Evropy do sféry vlivu Sovětského svazu, až po události let 1989/1990. Kurz seznamuje studenty s problematikou nepopisným způsobem na vybraných klíčových tématech kultury a umění.
