The beginnings of Canadian fiction in English are rather modest and go back to colonial times.
Frances BrookeŠs novel The History of Emily Montague (1769) nevertheless was the beginning
of a long tradition of Canadian fiction which extends up until today and which by now has grown
into a big success story. In this series of lectures, we will follow the development of the Canadian
novel and of Canadian short stories from the mid-eighteenth century to the end of the Second
World War. This will provide us with a survey of how a postcolonial literature developed from
colonial beginnings and from a period of only a marginal existence far away from the literary
centres in London and New York to a state of blooming maturity with new Canadian literary
centres at home. The question of the Canadianness of Canadian literature will be dealt with
throughout the term, and we will take our analyses to the point where Canadian fiction has
reached the threshold of international recognition. Interpretations of individual novels and short
stories will be supplemented by a brief look at how Canadian critics have told the story of their
countrys literary development in the period covered. If you want to do some preliminary reading,
I suggest the following titles: Frances Brooke, The History of Emily Montague (1769), John
Richardson, Wacousta; or, The Prophecy (1832), Catherine Parr Traill, The Backwoods of Canada
(1836), Thomas Chandler Haliburton, The Clockmaker; or, The Sayings and Doings of Sam
Slick, of Slickville (1836), Anna Brownell Jameson, Winter Studies and Summer Rambles in
Canada (1838), Susanna Moodie, Roughing It in the Bush (1852), Lucy Maud Montgomery,
Anne of Green Gables (1908), Stephen Leacock, Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town (1912),
Frederick Philip Grove, Fruits of the Earth (1933), Sinclair Ross, As For Me and My House
(1941), Hugh MacLennan, Barometer Rising (1941). All titles are available in the New Canadian
Library series, published by the Toronto publisher McClellandundStewart.

This lecture course will trace different notions of madness and related cultural tropes like
hysteria, paranoia, schizophrenia, trauma and melancholia from the beginning of the twentieth
century to the present in psychological, critical and cultural theory as well as in life writing and
fiction, in theatre and in Hollywood film, in television series and the internet. The cultural history
of the past century will be read in terms of mad media, peopled with constructions of mad
monsters, mad victims, mad geniuses, with successors of Hamlets Ophelia and of bestial
madwomen in the attic, of gothic doubles in the traditions of Frankenstein, with variations of the
mad serial killer in the succession of Psycho and of brilliant yet troubled artists in the succession
of Hawthornes The Birthmark. The analysis will also include references to the visual arts
(photography, painting) and to music.

Corpus linguistics is the branch of linguistic inquiry which is concerned with the analysis of large
computerised data bases of natural language. This lecture will focus primarily on corpus-based
descriptions of English, both synchronic and diachronic. After addressing basic questions of
methodology, corpus design and computer-aided research techniques, it will deal with important
corpus-based research on English lexicography, grammar, discourse and on studies involving
historical data.

BA-Module:
English Studies: BM 4 KW, AM 2 SW, BM 2 SW
MA-Module:
2 St. Mi. 16-17.30, VIII
One of the most interesting developments in US American English has been the steady rise of
new variants which are principally used within certain ethnoracial groups. In this class, we will
explore the unique sociocultural, historical, economic, and geographical characteristics of each of
these emergent groups. Then, we will delve into the linguistic features which linguists consider to
be prototypical of these speakers. By necessity then this class will require students to discuss the
many difficulties and controversies surrounding the concepts of race, ethnicity, and language.
Active participation is as always required.

The decades between the late 1820s and the early 1860s are widely regarded as one of the most

to the Civil War is generally referred to as the American Renaissance, a term coined by literary
critic F. O. Matthiessen in 1941. The seminar provides students with a comprehensive overview
of the American Renaissance. The course combines close readings of a representative selection of
novels, essays, short fiction, and verse with detailed discussions of the history and culture of
nineteenth-century America. Extended attention is given to such writers as Ralph Waldo
Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Edgar Allan Poe, Walt Whitman, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Harriet
Beecher Stowe, Herman Melville, and others. Students should buy their own copies of the
following texts: Nathaniel Hawthorne The Scarlet Letter (1850); Harriet Beecher Stowe Uncle
Tom’s Cabin (1851); Herman Melville Benito Cereno (1855).

’Only Connect’- The Novels of E. M. Forster
J. Hoydis
Teilgebiete: T-B3
BA-Module:
2 St. Fr. 14-15.30, B I
This course offers an introduction to the works of Edward Morgan Forster, one of the major
modern English writers of the early 20th century. Born in London in 1879, Forster read classics
and history at KingŠs College, Cambridge. He was a member of the Bloomsbury Group and also
traveled extensively in Italy, India and Egypt. Those places form the settings of ForsterŠs novels
which negotiate in perceptive and witty prose the possibilities and impossibilities of sympathetic
human relations and understanding. Satirizing the morals and hypocrisies of bourgeois English
middle-class life at home and abroad, the characters are struggling to reconcile the prose and
passion, ’to only connectŠ the head and the heart.
We will read the novels (all available in the Penguin edition) A Room with a View (1908),
Howards End (1910), The Longest Journey (1907), A Passage to India (1924) as well as excerpts
from ForsterŠs theoretical study Aspects of the Novel (1927) which will be made available in a
folder in the seminar library. There will also be screenings of the film versions of two novels. I
expect students to have read at least ’A Room With a ViewŠ before the start of term.
Requirements: a written paper (12-15 pp.), a short oral presentation, and active participation.

Characters
L. Kreuzer
BA-Module:
English Studies: BM 4 KW, BM 3 LW
2 St. Di 17.45-19.15, V
This course will discuss ShakespeareŠs works with a focus on female characters. These are very
heterogenous, although some general differences can be made out between the tragedies and
comedies. Feminist approaches to the authorŠs works have been controversial but illustrate the
need for discussion. A selection of the plays will be read in class and combined with current
theories of gender and literary theory. Recent cultural criticism of Shakespeare will also be
discussed. The plays to be read in class are ’King LearŠ ,’Hamlet, Prince of DenmarkŠ,
’MacBethŠ, ’Titus AndronicusŠ, ’As You Like ItŠ and ’A Midsummer NightŠs DreamŠ. Further
plays will be touched upon using presentations. While individual editions are usually preferrable
for study, the purchase of a complete works edition is highly recommended due to the large
variety of texts to be discussed. For the first session, I expect everyone to have read ’King LearŠ.

D. Schulz
BA-Module:
2 St. Do. 10-11.30, S 55
While differing in degrees of apppreciation the novels of the Brontes have become perceived as a
unique literary legacy of British culture and have remained popular throughout the centuries. In
this seminar we will pay particular attention to the different ways in which the narratives of the
three sisters articulate their sense of ’human nature’ and present the protagonists struggle with the
cultural conventions of their time. The guiding question then will be what defines personhood
according to these writings.
Please read and prepare Anne Brontes ’The Tenant of Wildfell Hall’, Charlotte Brontes ’Jane
Eyre’ and Emily Brontes ’Wuthering Heights’.

This course gives an introduction to the field of English morphology, i.e. the study of the shape of
English words and the rules according to which they are formed. The course will cover the
following topics: synchronic and diachronic approaches to morphology, word-formation
processes (e.g. compounding, derivation), inflectional morphology and the interface between
morphology and syntax, morphophonology, the relationship between morphology and semantics,
morphology in language acquisition, morphological theory and the place of the morphological
component in a model of language. For a Schein students have to participate actively and write a
term paper, which is due at the end of term. It is possible to give an oral presentation. Basic text

Syntactic Theory and the Structure of English
K. Phillips
LA-Module: M-B2
Bachelor-Module:
2 St. Do. 14-15.30, S 78
This course provides a general introduction to transformational grammar, and examines in detail a
range of different construction types in English from the perspective of the more recent versions
of the theory.
One of the general concerns of the course will be to explore the relation between theory and data
by reconstructing the various lines of argumentation which have played a central role in the
development of the theory, culminating in what is now known as the „Minimalist Programme‰.
From this point of view, we shall see how the detailed analyses of specific grammatical
phenomena have been influenced by purely theoretical considerations.

Approaches to Second Language Acquisition
A. Rah
2 St. Mo. 12-13.30, XXI
In this course we will examine the process of learning and using a second language. Linguistic,
psychological and social processes that underlie language(s) learning and use will be introduced
and current research findings will be examined.
Participants have to be prepared to do a significant amount of reading; active oral participation
and group work will be required in addition to the reading and writing assignments. Regular
attendance and active participation are mandatory to obtain a Teilnahmenachweis. In order to
obtain a Leistungsnachweis students are required to write an individual academic paper in
addition.

Academic Writing in Linguistics
E. Kincaid
BA-Module:
2 St. Mo. 10-11.30, S 89
In this course, students will be slowly guided in the necessary parts of writing a general English
language essay and academic paper in the field of linguistics, from the introduction to getting
research, and the conclusion. Each session will start with a short lecture on an aspect of writing an
essay and an academic paper or an important grammar point for writing. Students will then work
on their papers, or on a small assignment being designed for them before swapping drafts with
another student to give each other input. The homework will be designed to refine class work,
paying special attention to the focus of the session.
This class heavily depends on students active participation – both in oral and in written form –
and their willingness to discuss each others work. You are also strongly encouraged to bring in
your drafts for individual papers.

linguistics in general, and to examine in further detail some of the questions and problems arising
in more specific areas of the discipline. The course covers a broad selection of topics, ranging
from fundamental methodological issues to specific ideas and theories. For each topic, the
analysis of a short introductory text will form the basis for the discussion.
The issue of essay-writing in linguistics will also be addressed in the course of the semester, using
model questions and answers relating to the topics discussed.

The American, Thomas Pynchon
J. Baker
BA-Module:
MA-Module:
2 St. Mi. 12-13.30, XXI
Focusing on most of PynchonŠs major novels (as well as some early shorter works), this course
will examine, in-depth, what I will call PynchonŠs „American-ness,‰ as well as his developing
rejection of „realism‰ as a narrative modality. Specifically, we will explore PynchonŠs obvious
preoccupation with the idea of American exceptionalism, and with AmericansŠ repeated failures
of mission with regard to that special dispensation. From the early stories such as „Entropy,‰ and
„The Secret Integration,‰ through The Crying of Lot 49, GravityŠs Rainbow, Vineland, Mason
und Dixon, and Against the Day, Pynchon excavates American history for lost opportunities, and
has no difficulty finding as well as assessing responsibility for them. Secondarily, we will also
examine PynchonŠs progressive rejection of realism as a narrative modality, and discuss the
epistemological, ontological, and political implications of that rejection.

Hindi language cinema from the film capital of India, Mumbai, is popular known as Bollywood
cinema, in tribute to the global film capital - Hollywood. However, Indian Cinema has a long
history that goes back to the very beginnings of cinema in the late 19th century and the
development of Indian cinema thus runs parallel to the growth of cinema around the world. While
Bollywood has become synonymous with ’mirch masalaŠ, spicy fare, it has also produced some
world-class serious films, which have won international awards.
This Seminar will however focus on the ’mirch masalaŠ genre of Bollywood cinema and take a
look at the parameters of these films, the songs, the dances, the acting style, story-line, social
values and emotional appeal which makes these ’masalaŠ films so popular not just in India but
around the world.

Since the 1970s what is called ’critical theoryŠ has overwhelmed literary studies in a profusion of
new and sometimes highly technical methods of reading, analysing and interpreting literary
works, from post-structuralism to deconstruction, from Marxist criticism to semiotics. This
course is not about any of these recent arrivals, many of which consist at best of attempts to
politicize reading or, at worst, of attempts to reinvent the wheel; and all of which are specialized
sub-species of criticism.
This course will provide a grounding in the various modes of aesthetic criticism that have arisen
during the two millennia preceding the 1970s. We will examine criticism and theories of criticism
which stem largely from writers themselves, and not from academic study. We will look at
pragmatic theories of rhetoric, from AristotleŠs Poetics and HoraceŠs Art of Poetry to Boileau,
Dryden, and Pope; at Platonic theories of mimesis; at impressionistic criticism such as that of de
Quincey, Hazlitt, and Pater; at expressionistic aesthetic theories of the Romantic period, such as
those of Wordworth, Coleridge, and Keats; at the relatively recent tradition of objective, practical
criticism, as developed by I. A. Richards, and its antecedents, such as Dr Johnson; at the various
fallacies, such as the pathetic fallacy of Ruskin, and the intentional and affective fallacies of
Wimsatt and Beardsley; and at stylistic theories such as EmpsonŠs notions of pastoral and T. S.
EliotŠs objective correlative.
The textbook will be Raman Selden, ed., The Theory of Criticism: From Plato to the Present - A
Reader (Longman, 1988). There are numerous copies available through Amazon.de marketplace
sellers at a heavily discounted rate.

From Realism to Naturalism in America
BA-Module:
MA-Module:
2 St. Mi. 17.45-19.15, S 91
Realist fiction in America aimed at developing a new and revelatory way of capturing the real
currents of life, and at unveiling universal ’truthsŠ underlying it. Like their European
antecendents, authors such as William Dean Howells and Theodore Dreiser concerned themselves
with ordinary lives, repudiating the sensational and the heroic in favour of making fiction a means
of depicting the actual. Beginning with TwainŠs innovative presentation of dialectal dialogue and
’local colourŠ, we will survey the evolution of a distinctly American brand of Realism, looking at
how the boundaries of acceptable subject matter were expanded by the mode; and we will read
subsequent writers who espoused Naturalism such as Stephen Crane and Frank Norris, who
sought to refine Realist methods by incorporating their awareness of the tenets of Darwinian
evolution. We will examine how the ostensibly moral purpose of literature was changed radically
by this period, and we will investigate the ways in which Realism does and does not re-present a
total vision of life.
Authors to be considered will include William Dean Howells, Kate Chopin, Jack London,
Stephen Crane, Frank Norris and Theodore Dreiser.
You should buy copies of:
W. D. Howells - The Rise of Silas Lapham
Theodore Dreiser - Sister Carrie
Jack London - The Sea Wolf
Frank Norris - McTeague
The Penguin editions are perfectly satisfactory. A Handapparat in the library will provide
supplementary materials.

Creative Writing - Page and Screen
A. Srivastava
BA-Module:
2 St. Blockseminar, siehe Kommentar
This class, which is divided into two parts – prose writing and screenwriting – will introduce the
elements of storytelling for the page and for the screen by means of looking at diverse narratives,
from literary classics to contemporary cinema to comic book storyboards. In dealing with the
subject, different methods will be employed, such us lecture, timed exercises, novel and short
story extracts, scene breakdown examples, film extracts, pair work, group discussion.
In the first part on prose writing we will be concerned with questions like: How to turn ideas into
stories? How to build character? How to write dialogue? How to generate atmosphere?
The second part will begin with a lecture on Scriptwriting: From Page to Screen, which charts
Atima SrivastavaŠs first attempt to adapt a screenplay from her novel Transmission. The lecture
will illustrate the following issues: What is a screenplay? What is the three act structure? What is
a plot point, inciting incident, scene breakdown? What defines a protagonist and how does it
affect plot? This will be complemented by a section, in which students will do exercises on
reading film for camera, sound, mise en scene; analysis and breakdown of film sequences;
structure and storyboarding; genre and dialogue.
Requirements for participation (and credits):
Regular attendance, active participation in class as well as the submission of a creative writing
exercise. Outstanding examples of studentsŠ creative work may be published in the online journal

„All poetry is experimental poetry,‰ wrote Wallace Stevens. The poetic experiments of Wallace
Stevens belong to the most lasting achievements of twenitieth century American modernism. In
spite of the philosophical complexity of his poems, Stevens insisted that „Poetry should be read
with the nerves.‰ This course seeks to reflect on the direct experience of reading StevensŠ
experiments, to explore the worlds of the poems through what happens in the act of reading itself.
A selection of poems will be made available in a reader in the library.

From Glasgow to the World and Beyond: Edwin Morgan and Liz Lochhead.
’the mad particles dance / stanza by stanza / the poem is becoming more miraculous / more
clear?’ (Lochhead, The People’s Poet: for Edwin Morgan). In 2005, Liz Lochhead took over as
Poet Laureate of Glasgow from Scotland’s Poet Laureate Edwin Morgan and the reputations and
popularity of both poets have continued to grow: indeed, in January 2008, Glasgow was host to a
’Morganathon’ - a 36-hour non-stop reading of Morgan’s work. This course will consider a wide
selection of Morgan’s and Lochhead’s poetry from a variety of different perspectives. Has this
contemporary poetry succeeded in extricating itself from the curse of Calvinism? Are Morgan
and Lochhead only relevant and interesting in a British/Scottish/or even just a Glasgow context?
Are they doing anything which could be deemed uniquely or characteristically Scottish? Are they
innovative or merely second-rate minor poets producing yet more kailyard literature?
Students who wish to obtain a QUAST, or credit for active participation, will have to hand in a
written analysis of a poem. Those students (only LA old system) who wish to obtain
performance-related credit will have to submit a short research paper by 4.2.09. Students MUST
attend the first class in order to secure their place.

Contemporary Australian Literature
Bachelor-Module:
Master-Module:
English Studies: MM 2b ELC, EM 1a LW
2 St. Mo. 12-13.30, S 66
Australian novelist Kate Grenville, born in 1950, is renowned for her stylistic mastery, treading „a
precarious line between darkness and superb comedy‰. Set in an economic backwater in New
South Wales, The Idea of Perfection (Winner of the Orange Prize 2001) is a careful examination
of the habits and inhibitions that keep us from living life to the full, depicting the tenuous love
affair between Douglas Cheeseman, a jug-eared, clumsy engineer scared of heights whose father
had been a war hero in the ANZAC days and Pixie Appleby Harley Savage, a „rawboned plain
person, tall and unlikely, with a ragged haircut‰ whose third husband killed himself with a
circular saw. GrenvilleŠs next novel, The Secret River, made the 2006 Man Booker Prize shortlist
and won the Commonwealth Writers Prize of the same year, telling the rags-to-riches story of
English-born convict William Thornhill who becomes an Emancipist colonizer following
transportation to Australia in 1806. Please buy her autobiographical investigation, Searching for
the Secret River, as well. In addition, we will read LilianŠs Story (1985, winner of the Vogel
award), the eponymous heroine of which is „emblematic of female protest against the social
ordering and control of womenŠs bodies, deliberately making herself fat as an emancipatory
device‰. Registration via uk-online.

It is the purpose of this Kolloquium to provide a forum of discussion for all those preparing for
their final exams or engaged in the process of writing a thesis. You will have the opportunity of
presenting your special subject(s) and of explaining your approach to the topic of your thesis in
order to negotiate your position and discuss it with the other participants. You will realize that
presenting your own point of view and having to defend it in a group can teach you a lot and open
up new perspectives that might be helpful for the final version of your thesis or in your written or
oral exams. The Kolloquium therefore is a testing ground for your ideas as well as for your
knowledge of your subject, and it will hopefully contribute to making you as fit as possible for
your exams. The final list of topics discussed naturally depends on who will attend the seminar
and will therefore have to be discussed in our first meeting.
Requirements: Regular attendance, active participation, further reading, oral presentation.

BA-Module:
MA-Module:
2 St. Di. 14-15.30, XXI
Recent years have seen a remarkable increase in the number of self-help books aimed at
improving cross-gender communication. Most of these books claim to be based on the latest
scientific evidence available. But is this really true? In this class, we will explore some of the
leading linguistic reserach which has been conducted on the complex relationship between
gender, sex, sexuality, and language. We will then compare this body of evidence with the
mountain of more or less well-meaning advice which can be found throughout the popular press.
In addition to passing a written examination on the obligatory class reader, students will be
required to conduct and present the results of their own scientific experiments. At the end of the
semester, qualified students wishing to obtain a LN will be required to write a formal reserach
paper in which they report the findings of their original research. As always, active participation
is required in this course.

The aim of this course is to integrate linguistic insight from the field of L2 phonology into foreign
language teaching materials. The first part of the course will focus on linguistic studies of L2
phonology, e.g. models of phonological development, L2 speech learning, ultimate attainment in
the pronunciation of a foreign language, L2 accents, interference etc. Then we will analyze the
didactic implications of the studies discussed in the first part and will examine existing teaching
materials. Finally, we will develop our own phonological teaching materials. Regular attendance
and active participation are mandatory to obtain a Teilnahmenachweis for AM 2 or AM 5 (details
t.b.a.). A detailed bibliography will be provided in the first session. The course will start with a

English Bible translations are relevant to the history of the English language and culture at least in
four respects: firstly, as a cross-cultural encounter where English culture adopted a text collection
from a foreign nation, quite remote in terms of time, region and disposition; secondly, as a
continual series of text adaptations which covers the whole history of the English language and,
in fact, constitutes part of that history; thirdly, as a notable case illustrating the relationship
between language and society, where one book and the language associated with it exercised
enormous social and political influence; and, fourthly, as a (supposedly) powerful factor in the
formation of Modern English. In the seminar we will read and analyse various excerpts from
English Bible translations and look at their historical and cultural background.
