WiSe 14/15: S-Literary Studies: Carnival and Carnivalization

Andreas Mahler

Comments

'Carnival' has been described as a temporal 'enclave', as a kind of cultural 'time out' suspending normalcy, as a period apt to rearrange and re-establish 'normal life' after it is inevitably over again. Reading 'literature' may be seen as doing precisely the same thing in that it suspends what we consider to be our 'reality' during the reception process, only to redirect us into the 'normality' of our lives after the reading process has been finished. Drawing on the Bakhtinian concepts of 'carnival' and 'carnivalization' the seminar will focus precisely on this functional equivalent of both the festive period and the literary text. Participants are invited to familiarize themselves with some of Bakhtin's concepts and to have read Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream (Arden3) and Ben Jonson's Bartholmew Fair (New Mermaids) before the seminar begins. close
