This exhibit commemorates the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War (1939-45) using primarily European visual sources recently acquired by Rare Books & Special Collections. It showcases more than 40 works on paper, including posters, maps, propaganda ephemera, and illustrated books, as well as photographs and first-hand accounts. The exhibit explores themes of Nazi racial ideology, the Holocaust, children in war, resistance, liberation, and memories of war. By examining images created for personal use and for state-sponsored propaganda, the exhibit presents a visual narrative of the war’s profound impact on individuals and societies, offering deeper insight into how this war was experienced and remembered. This exhibit is curated by Natasha Lyandres, Curator, Rare Books & Special Collections; Jean McManus, Catholic Studies Librarian, University Archives; and Julia Schneider, German Language and Literature and Italian Studies Librarian, Hesburgh Libraries. This and other exhibits within the Hesburgh Libraries are generously supported by the McBrien Special Collections Endowment. All exhibits are free and open to the public during business hours.

Classics in the BrowningDirected by Wim WendersWith Pope Francis, Daniele De Angelis, Ignazio OlivaRated PG, 96 minutes, DCPIn English and Italian, Spanish, and German with English subtitlesPreviously screened at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center in 2018 with director Wim Wenders in attendance for questions, this documentary carries a new significance as an archive of Pope Francis' life, both in terms of his papacy and his approach to service. Shot while both following Pope Francis observationally and in direct interviews, the film offers a unique facet for understanding the pontiff's approach to major global issues, including concerns for the poor, pressing environmental issues, and the need for peace.
