SoSe 14: American Modernities
Frank Kelleter
Kommentar
This lecture course deals with American culture between World War I and World War II: an era which saw the birth of new technologies of production, representation, and destruction as well as far-ranging revolutions in the organization of knowledge. Sociology, ethnology, psychoanalysis, and other disciplines emerged in the early 20th century as specific ways of theorizing modernity. Many of these transformations can be witnessed in a prototypical fashion in the U.S. Our topics in this lecture course include: the Hollywood studio system; the Great War and modernist aesthetics; the "New Negro" movement and the Harlem Renaissance; New Deal culture; the Southern agrarians and anti-modern modernism. The lecture course serves as "Grundlagenveranstaltung" of Culture-Module B in the M.A. program. Registration: all participants must be registered via Blackboard and Campus Management before the first session. If you cannot register online, or if you would like to participate, but cannot attend the first session, please contact Prof. Kelleter before the beginning of the term. Requirements: see Syllabus and Course Description (on Blackboard). Schließen
