WiSe 12/13: Autobiography? Authorial Self-Invention in Jewish American Literature and Art

Sonja Longolius

Comments

Autobiography, self-narrative, memoir, journal, life writing? This BA seminar takes a close look at a diffuse genre that is in constant transition due to acute questions of authenticity and authorship, memory and testimony in the context of modern celebrity and commemoration culture. We will scrutinize the "autobiographical pact" (Lejeune) between authors and readers and investigate the processes of authorial self-invention in the works of Paul Auster, Sophie Calle, Jonathan Safran Foer, Philip Roth, Art Spiegelman, Woody Allen et al. close
