SoSe 18: Consciousness II
Ulla Haselstein
Kommentar
As in the previous semester, this class will be team-taught by Profs Haselstein and Ickstadt.
Modernism is perhaps most characteristically marked by the shift from the notion of a (pre)given ('objective') reality to the reality of subjective consciousness. This shift can be noticed in philosophy (William James, Henri Bergson), in psychoanalysis (Freud), and in literature. In the previous semester, the seminar discussed the beginnings of this subjective turn in 19th century fiction, especially around the turn of the century (Flaubert, Howells, James). In this semester, it will deal with the (re)presentation of consciousness, which highlights the simultaneity of diverse mental processes, including processes of repression, condensation and displacement. We will study modernist texts by
the late Henry James, Marcel Proust, Gertrude Stein and James Joyce as well as Virginia Woolf and William Faulkner.
Excerpts and short texts will be made available electronically. The novels by Virginia Woolf and William Faulkner should be purchased and read in their entirety.
