WiSe 17/18: GK-Basic Questions, Concepts and Methods
Jeff Thoss
Comments
This lecture offers an introduction to the study of English literature. It invites students to reflect on what it is one does when interacting with texts and introduces them to common approaches used to analyse poetry, prose and drama alongside more general topics such as rhetoric, genre theory, literary history and the various schools of literary criticism. The lecture intends to prepare students to become independent readers of literature who combine the pleasure of reading with a more systematic approach to literature that is interested in the effects of literature on readers and the world. It is accompanied by a weekly seminar (“Working with Literary Texts”) where these questions, concepts, and methods will be discussed in smaller groups. The lecture is held in English. Note that although attendance is not compulsory, it is highly recommended. close
