WiSe 20/21: GK-Basic Questions, Concepts and Methods

Justus Conrad Gronau Lukas Lammers

Comments

This lecture offers an introduction to the study of English literatures. 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 aims 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/tutorial (sign up for one of the PS “Working with Literary Texts”) where these questions, concepts, and methods will be discussed in smaller groups. The lecture will be conducted in English.

Note that although attendance of the lecture is not compulsory, it is highly recommended. To complete the module students will need to participate in the seminar (including assignments), follow the lecture, and take the 90-minute exam at the end of the semester, which will be based on the lecture and the seminar.

This lecture will be taught online in a live stream (via Webex) and will be accompanied by a Blackboard site. Note that this lecture will feature interactive elements. It is recommended that participants use a computer with a stable internet connection, a working microphone, and, perhaps, a camera.
