Das Berufsfeldpraktikum bietet erste berufliche Perspektiven im Fach Englisch innerhalb der Bereiche
Sprache, Literatur und Kultur, sowie deren Vermittlung. Es zeigt exemplarisch auf, wie professionelle
fachspezifische Kompetenzen in verschiedenen Berufsfeldern angewandt werden. Das Praktikum im Fach
Englisch kann sowohl im schulischen als auch im außerschulischen Bereich absolviert werden; eine
Praktikumsstelle im Ausland, um das Berufsfeldpraktikum mit dem „Stay Abroad“ aus Modul 1 zu verbinden,
wird empfohlen. Auf der Basis einer forschenden Lernhaltung unterstützt das Kolloquium die Studierenden
bei der Reflexion eigener Interessenslagen und der Auswahl von geeigneten Praktikumsstellen. Als
optionale Ergänzung dient die Ringvorlesung „Berufsfeld Kulturwissenschaften“ der Fakultät.

Linguistics is the study of both language and languages - that is, the object of study can be human
language in general, and an individual language like English, respectively or in conjunction. As every
participant in this class will be a competent language user, our conscious or implicit knowledge of language
will form a starting point from which we will depart to the various levels of linguistic description. These will
be introduced in a survey spanning two semesters.
Linguistics I will include:
•
•
•
•
phonetics (the study of the sounds of language)
phonology (the study of the sound system of a language)
morphology (the formal analysis of words and word forms)
syntax (the study of sentences and of the rules by which they are formed).
5
Linguistics II will follow in the summer, and will include:
•
•
•
semantics (the study of meaning - both of words and sentences)
pragmatics (the study of utterances and their meaning).
language in society (how does language vary depending on who uses it for what purpose?)
As human language is a means of communication, some non-linguistic (or extra-linguistic) circumstances
of language use and their influence on language will also be introduced and discussed whenever an
opportunity presents itself.
Textbook: Information on the textbook will be provided on the IAAwiki during the summer
Credits
Credits will be awarded on the basis of a "portfolio", which will include:
a) a mid-term written test on phonetics and phonology;
b) an end-of-term written test on morphology and syntax;
c) further written and/or oral contributions in Linguistics II.
Each class will be accompanied by a tutorial (one hour per week).

The earliest English texts date back to around 700 - and their language is extremely different from the English
language as we know it. And even if we consider a text from the end of the 14th century, we will find it more
recognizable, but still far from easily readable. Shakespeare's works seem to offer a safe footing - but why
are the sisters in Macbeth weird, and why couldn't Shakespeare find correct rhymes, at least some of the
time? Then again, Shakespeare's language is markedly different from 14th century English, and even more
so from the earliest texts. The explanation to all this lies in the fact that English is a language, and languages
are forever subject to change, be it in pronunciation, vocabulary, or syntax. We will outline some of the major
changes which have affected the English language over its long history, and which have contributed to its
present shape. In the process, we will consider some basics about historical linguistics, i.e. the description
and explanation of language change. This will involve the search for causes of linguistic change, which may
be found inside language itself, but also in the cultural circumstances in which languages are embedded.
Credits will be given for regular attendance, submitting a series of exercises, and the end-of-term written
test.

The label "Cognitive Linguistics" has been given to an approach to the study of language that began in the
1970s and has become increasingly productive since the 1980s. Most of the research has focused on
semantics, but morphology and syntax also figure significantly, plus other linguistic areas like language
acquisition, phonology, and historical linguistics.
There are three major hypotheses which guide the cognitive approach to language (Croft, Cruse 2004: 1):
Language is not an autonomous cognitive faculty, but depends on and is embedded in our
general cognitive faculties;
Grammar is conceptualization, i.e. linguistic structures are closely connected to our nonlinguistic concepts of the world; for instance, syntactic functions like subject and objects mirror
the participants in an event that we witness;
knowledge of language emerges from language use; in effect, this means that we are not
genetically equipped with an abstract and universal grammar which only needs input from the
language which we are exposed to as children, but that the language acquisition process is
closely connected to pairings of non-linguistic situations with linguistic expressions which we
encounter at an early age.

In this seminar, we will focus on different topics related to the domain of cognitive linguistics, such as the
study of metaphor and metonymy, “prototypical” meanings and their extensions, and the cognitive
approaches to grammar. On the basis of the theoretical framework, we will also look at the impact of cognitive
linguistics on EFL teaching.
Reading materials as well as requirements for credits will be announced in the first meeting. The seminar
will be supported by a Moodle-Workspace (http: //www.moodle.tu-dortmund.de) for which you should register
immediately once you get a place in this seminar.

Advertising, newspaper and magazine articles, radio and TV reporting, blogs – they inform, persuade and
coax. How these media are using language in order to not only inform, but also to influence us, and what
linguistic features are used, will be the interest of this seminar.
This course targets AS students in particular, but teacher training students are also welcome.
After working through concepts underlying language in the media, students will carry out their own research
on a topic related to the context of the seminar. The exact requirements for credits will be discussed in our
first session.

Is English as it is pronounced in the USA more “modern” than the English spoken in Great Britain? Does
Canadian English have an accent of its own? How do pronunciations differ between Liverpool and
Birmingham? And why? Which sound changes are currently in progress in London? Questions like these
will be discussed in this course. As a consequence of historical changes like settlement and colonization,
but also of dialect changes in general, English has developed quite a number of diverse accents. The course
will introduce you to some of these accents in detail. It will also introduce methods to describe and compare
these accents. To do this, the course will deal with practical matters, i.e. hands-on phonetic analysis, besides
theoretical issues. Prospective participants might want to freshen up their knowledge about phonetics and
phonology.
Reading materials as well as requirements for credits will be announced in the first meeting.

This text has been circulating on the internet for many years. At first sight, it seems plausible that letter
position in words is not important to the ability to read successfully. But is this really true? In this course we
will take a closer look at the cognitive processes that underlie reading. We will discuss experimental studies
that investigate the perception of individual words as well as whole sentences.

Like its lexical equivalents in several European languages, the term ‘translation’ denotes both the process
and the results. In this course, we will be chiefly concerned with the former without, however, ignoring the
latter. Translating has – since the Tower of Babel – been an indispensable form of human speech and
writing, and it is, therefore, not surprising that translation theory, or rather theories, have been around since
classical antiquity. Traditional translation theories were largely literature-oriented, and it was only in the 20th
century that the linguistic features of translation began to be examined. We will briefly look at traditional
translation theories before delving into modern approaches. Needless to say, the spin-off for various
linguistic disciplines and also – dare it be said – for language teaching will likewise be addressed.
Participants will be given background material to study and practical assignments to analyse not only source
language texts with regard to translation problems, but also various completed and published target
language translations.
Please note: This is not a translation course for Sprachpraxis!

The aim of this course is to create and carry out your own linguistic research project within a small group.
The course consists of two different parts. In the first five weeks we will meet in the classroom to introduce
- or revise - research approaches for linguistic projects, such as questionnaire compilation, interview
techniques or corpus tools. During this time you should form research groups and select topics which can
be related to past course work or can be completely new.
During your research time I will meet up with each group to discuss your progress. You will then present
your project work in the form of a research poster at the end of the semester.
This course is targeted towards BML students (module 12, Master) and LABG 2009 students (module 7,
Bachelor).

Advertising, newspaper and magazine articles, radio and TV reporting, blogs – they inform, persuade and
coax. How these media are using language in order to not only inform, but also to influence us, and what
linguistic features are used, will be the interest of this seminar.
This course targets AS students in particular, but teacher training students are also welcome.
After working through concepts underlying language in the media, students will carry out their own research
on a topic related to the context of the seminar. The exact requirements for credits will be discussed in our
first session.

Like its lexical equivalents in several European languages, the term ‘translation’ denotes both the process
and the results. In this course, we will be chiefly concerned with the former without, however, ignoring the
latter. Translating has – since the Tower of Babel – been an indispensable form of human speech and
writing, and it is, therefore, not surprising that translation theory, or rather theories, have been around since
classical antiquity. Traditional translation theories were largely literature-oriented, and it was only in the 20th
century that the linguistic features of translation began to be examined. We will briefly look at traditional
translation theories before delving into modern approaches. Needless to say, the spin-off for various
linguistic disciplines and also – dare it be said – for language teaching will likewise be addressed.
Participants will be given background material to study and practical assignments to analyse not only source
language texts with regard to translation problems, but also various completed and published target
language translations.
Please note: This is not a translation course for Sprachpraxis!

The aim of this course is to create and carry out your own linguistic research project within a small group.
The course consists of two different parts. In the first five weeks we will meet in the classroom to introduce or revise - research approaches for linguistic projects, such as questionnaire compilation, interview techniques
or corpus tools. During this time you should form research groups and select topics which can be related to
past course work or can be completely new.
During your research time I will meet up with each group to discuss your progress. You will then present your
project work in the form of a research poster at the end of the semester.
This course is targeted towards BML students (module 12, Master) and LABG 2009 students (module 7,
Bachelor).

Sprachpraxis
1. STUDIENPHASE
The programme of courses offered as part of the Sprachpraxis module consists of Integrated Foundation
Courses (IFCs), Written and Oral Communication Courses (WOCs), and Academic Writing Courses. You
should attend one of each type of course, starting with an IFC (2SWS) and a WOC (2SWS). You must
successfully complete the WOC in-class essay before you can take an Academic Writing Course. These
course types are described in greater detail below.
Integrated Foundation Courses (IFC)
The aim of these courses is to provide systematic and interconnected language training. Hence, all IFCs will
contain elements of grammar practice, mistakes recognition, and some discussions.

The seminar looks at how some films and other media texts present various types of conundrums which
challenge the viewer to make sense of the world she has been plunged into and which disrupt the usual
soothing, immersive experience provided by standard Hollywood fare. Some movies of this kind, such as
Christopher Nolan's Inception, feature several layers of realities; others, such as the Gondry/Kaufman The
16
Perfect Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, play games with time. The aim of the seminar is to provide new
awareness of the opportunities such hermetic texts offer for analysis and to extend our critical firepower by
unpicking some of the best writing on them. Other potential candidates for analysis would probably include
movies based on Philip K. Dick texts, some Hitchcock movies such as Psycho and Vertigo, Orson Welles's
Citizen Kane, and some noir films. Students can make suggestions. Work expected would include taking

In the Hollywood of the nineteen forties a group of film emerged characterized by a sense of fatalism,
labyrinthine cityscapes, and a black – and – white photography tinged with expressionism. This aesthetic,
christened “noir” by later critics, has turned out to be enduringly influential. The seminar looks at some of the
original noir movies, such as Wilder’s Double Indemnity (1944), Tourneur’s Out of the Past (1947), and
Welles’s Touch of Evil (1948) as well as a number of much more recent films influenced by the noir aesthetic.
This later group will include such films as Ridley’s Scott’s Alien (1979) and Blade Runner (1982), Nolan’s
Following (1998) and Memento (2000), Proyas’s Dark City (1998), Fincher’s Se7en (1995), and others. Our
website will contain extensive bibliographies. Students will be expected to give a presentation on their chosen
movie and to write a short paper of 2000 words.
Translation
This course covers several areas, e.g. vocabulary, semantics, collocations, grammar, (morphology and
syntax), contrastive linguistics and stylistics. In addition to the traditional four skills: reading, listening, speaking,
writing, translation constitutes a fifth skill which is not to be underestimated. This skill can only be acquired by
practising translation over a long period of time.
These classes will run parallel: it would not, therefore, be sensible to attend more than one. Students attending
any of these classes will be expected to prepare texts in advance of each session and to hand in work for
marking. Students are required to have four translation assignments accepted (with pass grades) in the course
of the semester to gain the credit points for this course.

”Would you love a monsterman? Could you understand, beauty of the beast?”
Are these just questions that Finnish monster rockers Lordi ask you to consider before tucking yourself into
bed at night? Or are they better considered as an introduction to a lesson on the use of auxiliary verbs?
This seminar will explore the reasons for using music with EFL learners, criteria for evaluating the usefulness
of a song and of music-related classroom activities. Music and activities appropriate to kindergarten, primary
school, and secondary school will be explored. Participants will be able to further develop activities suitable
to their own interests.
No specialized music knowledge is required. The class is open to anyone interested in music generally and
in developing the skills and knowledge to make their EFL classroom a more communicative, creative, and
engaging place.

“Content and Language Integrated Learning” or Bilingualer Sachfachunterricht is increasingly being offered
within the German school system to prepare students for the linguistic and cultural challenges of a globalized
world. The aim of this course is to familiarize future teachers with the basic principles of bilingual education as
applied to the primary as well as the secondary classroom. The course will provide insights into the origins of
bilingual education, theories of Second Language Acquisition, and methodological approaches for Content
and Language Integrated Learning. This class will also deal with how to plan lessons for specific subjects that
are taught bilingually. If you have questions about the course, please feel free to contact me via e-mail:

Storytelling is a common method of teaching English to young and beginning learners in the primary school
classroom. The aim of this course is to explore this method in depth in order to outline advantages of
storytelling, uncover opportunities for language learning, and connect storytelling to common theories of
language learning as well as other established methods of language instruction. Building upon this theoretical
foundation, ideas for classroom teaching as well as hands-on practice will be provided.
The structure of the course will be as follows: After exploring the theoretical background of storytelling,
including reasons for using stories in the primary English classroom, we will first distinguish between authentic
books and so-called readers. We will then take a look at criteria for “good” authentic books for an ‘EFL
classroom at primary school level and analyse a selection of books based on these criteria. After finding several
useful books, we will explore how to successfully use them in class and how storytelling actually works. We
will discuss the use of media to support storytelling, modifications to the text, techniques of storytelling, and
pupil participation, among other aspects. Then we will take a closer look at the three phases of storytelling and
fill those phases with practical examples. Throughout the course, participants will be asked to design and
prepare a storytelling lesson to be presented in class as well as possibly conducted in school.
A list of recommended readings as well as information about assessment will be given in the first session.

In this class we will discuss theories of Textdidaktik and Literaturdidaktik. To a certain extent, we will also
consider language competences and intercultural competences. Central elements of the course will be the
development of teaching objectives focused on literary and non-fictional texts and the exploration of
methodological options such as TBLT. In addition, the theoretical issues will be studied by analysing
videographed lessons. Further, we will apply and try out the theoretical tools in the context of teaching at
primary and secondary levels and vocational schools, provided there are students with this background.
We will start off with texts taken from textbooks for 4th, 5th, 8th, and 11th grades. Texts of fiction will be
included. Then an overview of the CLIL concept will be provided in order to point out the similarities and
differences between bilingual and regular classes. Moreover, we will examine the requirements at the end
of 4th grade and also Abitur level, based on the National Standards for Abitur and the curricula of NRW.
A reader will be available in Moodle.
Teaching texts to be dealt with:
Picture books
Textbook texts by Cornelsen, Klett, Diesterweg

are fundamental to Teaching English as a

Foreign Language. Literary texts are often used in the English language classroom to achieve this aim. Thus,
this course offers insights into the complex field of developing “Intercultural Communicative Competence” in
a classroom setting. First, we will discuss established models of I(C)C by Bennett, Byram, and Bredella.
Then we will take a closer look at different approaches for teaching literature, including narrative texts,
poems, and film. We will consider these approaches from the perspective of all school types and levels, from
the Primary to the Upper Secondary Classroom. Finally, we will deal with lesson planning and possible forms
of assessment. If you have questions about the course, please feel free to contact me via e-mail:

Teaching film is specified as an obligatory objective of TEFL in the current Kernlehrplan for Sekundarstufe
II (2013). The benefits of using film in the foreign language classroom are obvious: films bring voices,
characters, spoken/colloquial English, cultures, drama, conflict, comic relief and stimulating topics to the
classroom in a way that language learners tend to perceive as authentic and meaningful. This course will
provide you with a basic knowledge of how to work with films in class by covering the following topics: how
to guide learners in film analysis and interpretation; which methods to make use of in order to approach the
meaning of films or film scenes; and how to assess students' media literacy.
Course requirements will be announced in the first session.

In this seminar we will discuss how to teach teenage and young adult fiction to foreign language learners
without turning the process of literary analysis into a purely technical exercise. We will try to find ways of
studying literature in the classroom which are meaningful to young people, employing effective methods which
aim at a closer understanding of the texts and provide opportunities for the development of communicative
competences. A main element of this course will concern the development of teaching sequences and activities
in addition to tasks for written examinations and their respective specifications (Erwartungshorizont).

This course will explore the relationship between second language acquisition (SLA) and linguistic theory. We
will discuss some of the fundamental theoretical issues that inform current research in SLA from a variety of
linguistic perspectives. A special focus will be on the comparison of generative and cognitive models and on
the question of how convincingly each model can account for generally agreed-upon observations of second
language acquisition.
The requirements for credits will be announced in our first session. Reading materials will be made available
through the Moodle-Workspace for this course.

In this course we will look at how technologies can be used to augment ‘traditional’ language learning
activities both on- and offline, in the classroom as well as beyond the walls of the classroom in autonomous
study, in networked classes and in online intercultural exchanges. Supported by a selection of key readings
in the field, you will explore the potential of educational technology for language learning through guided
experiential tasks (for example in Moodle, wikis and blogs). You will also be creating instructional materials
appropriate for your own potential classroom scenarios.
Topics include
§ The role of educational technology in second language learning pedagogy
§ Working in different blended learning environments
§ Flipping the classroom
§ Supporting language learner autonomy with educational technology
§ Tools for vocabulary acquisition
§ Using educational technology to develop reading, writing and listening skills
§ www as an authentic materials resource for language learning
§ “Talking” via synchronous and asynchronous computer-mediated communication
§ Online intercultural exchange
Key learning aims
§ Facilitating an understanding of the role(s) of educational technology in the light of relevant research,
theory and issues of debate
§ Fostering a critical stance towards educational technology with regard to different contextual factors:
learner profiles, methodological traditions, cultural settings
§ Determining effective use of technology in relation to classroom modality (e.g. autonomous and
networked learning contexts)
§ Using technologies to develop appropriate language learning materials for the classroom

Analyzing and interpreting different kinds of media are essential activities in the EFL classroom at
Sekundarstufe II and mandatory requirements for classroom-based assessments and examinations.
Learners at this level are expected to be skilled in this particular area. At the same time, a considerable
number of teachers seem to struggle with the question of how these basic skills can be developed, and
depend on educational publishing companies to supply them with ready-made teaching materials. Relying
on this aid is becoming more and more problematic, as modern language teaching needs to flexibly respond
to the needs of the learners and the content- and outcome-based specifications in the curricula and central
exit exams, such as Zentralabitur. Accordingly, this class focuses on the analysis and interpretation of
different media (film, fictional and non-fictional texts, advertisements, etc.), and on the development,
administration and evaluation of various relevant assessment procedures.

Als fachdidaktische Veranstaltung gilt dieses Seminar nur für Masterstudierende, die ein Seminar für
Modul 1002 bzw. 1003 belegen müssen!
In 2016 – a year that marks the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death – the Bard's astounding
contemporaneity is tangible everywhere. Most theatres offer new stage versions of his plays, critical studies
on his life and works abound, 'serious' and popular artists alike engage with his legacy. Considering this
Renaissance writer's lasting popularity, it is no small wonder, therefore, that Shakespeare has also remained
an integral part of advanced secondary education.
This course is specifically designed as a 'Kulturdidaktik'-Seminar for LABG 2009 students (Modul 10, HRG
and GyGe/BK). After introductory sessions on the theoretical basics of Literaturdidaktik and Kulturdidaktik, we
will read selected plays and consider how Shakespeare can be taught at school.
The seminar will be complimented by an 8-day field trip to Stratford-upon-Avon, which will probably take
place from 4-11 March, 2017. In cooperation with the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, we will watch
performances by the Royal Shakespeare Company, attend seminars and workshops, and visit some of
Stratford's outstanding Shakespearean landmarks.
We'd like to adjust the reading matter for the seminar to the plays we'll see in Stratford. However, since the
2017 schedule of the Royal Shakespeare Company will only be available by the end of September, we are not
able to announce which plays will be read prior to the beginning of the winter term.
Important: The field trip to Stratford has to be paid by yourself. Fees for accommodation, performances,
seminars and additional visits will be around 650,00 euros, plus flight costs. (This is only an estimate, and
we are still in the application process for external funding; a definite price cannot be fixed before October.)
Since we'd like to give seminar participants the first chance to register for the field trip, please register with
Cyprian Piskurek ([email protected]) for both the seminar and the field trip by 31 August 2016. The
available places are limited to 25: first come, first serve!
Credits will be awarded on the basis of:
a) project work in connection with the field trip;
b) either an Unterrichtsskizze (HRG) or an academic term paper (GyGe/BK).
Information as to which texts you are supposed to purchase will be given in the first session.

The melodramatic genre and mode can be found in all media and in different kinds of texts. Why is
melodrama so popular? What are the functions of the melodramatic mode? What are its effects on readers?
What readings are encouraged? We will study the tradition of the melodramatic mode across time, starting
with political rhetoric of the late 18th as well as literary and dramatic texts of the 19th century and working
our way towards today's films and tv series.
This is a project seminar. Every student will analyze a text and contribute to an extensive group presentation.
You will design your own research project which will be introduced, discussed, and developed cooperatively,
with the whole seminar group.
There will be extra film viewing sessions on some Tuesdays starting at 4 p.m.

Volume XI of The Complete Works of Ralph Waldo Emerson collects a series of mostly political texts including contributions on slavery, Abraham Lincoln, and “Woman.” These largely unknown addresses and
lectures reveal a rather different, more explicitly political Emerson. The seminar is going to discuss these
texts as documents of an Ameriacn political culture which points forward into the 20th and 21st centuries.
We will use the reprint edition, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Miscellanies, in the Elibron Classics Series, Adamant
Media Co., 2006, for about 12 Euros.

“Content and Language Integrated Learning” or Bilingualer Sachfachunterricht is increasingly being offered
within the German school system to prepare students for the linguistic and cultural challenges of a globalized
world. The aim of this course is to familiarize future teachers with the basic principles of bilingual education
as applied to the primary as well as the secondary classroom. The course will provide insights into the origins
of bilingual education, theories of Second Language Acquisition, and methodological approaches for
27
Content and Language Integrated Learning. This class will also deal with how to plan lessons for specific
subjects that are taught bilingually. If you have questions about the course, please feel free to contact me

In this class we will discuss theories of Textdidaktik and Literaturdidaktik. To a certain extent, we will also
consider language competences and intercultural competences. Central elements of the course will be the
development of teaching objectives focused on literary and non-fictional texts and the exploration of
methodological options such as TBLT. In addition, the theoretical issues will be studied by analysing
videographed lessons. Further, we will apply and try out the theoretical tools in the context of teaching at
primary and secondary levels and vocational schools, provided there are students with this background.
We will start off with texts taken from textbooks for 4th, 5th, 8th, and 11th grades. Texts of fiction will be
included. Then an overview of the CLIL concept will be provided in order to point out the similarities and
differences between bilingual and regular classes. Moreover, we will examine the requirements at the end
of 4th grade and also Abitur level, based on the National Standards for Abitur and the curricula of NRW.
A reader will be available in Moodle.
Teaching texts to be dealt with:
Picture books
Textbook texts by Cornelsen, Klett, Diesterweg
Chapters from Context 21

of linguistic perspectives. A special focus will be on the comparison of generative and cognitive models and
on the question of how convincingly each model can account for generally agreed-upon observations of
second language acquisition.
The requirements for credits will be announced in our first session. Reading materials will be made available

The Victorian era is one of the most influential periods of English literature and has brought forth many a
canonical writer. This course will deal with the short fiction written by three of the household names of this
era, namely Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Charlotte Perkins Gilman and Charles Dickens.
The students will look at both the structure and the general characteristics of short stories and apply their
findings to the stories by Dickens, Gilman and Doyle. Furthermore, the historical and social background of
the three stories will be discussed. In order to do so, Harold Orel’s observations on the Victorian short story
(1986), but also Martin Hewitt’s essay collection on the Victorian World (2012) will be consulted. Naturally,
the three short stories in question will be studied thoroughly. Methods of analysis include close reading,
biographical as well as historical readings of the texts.
Required reading:
•
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, “A Scandal in Bohemia” (1891)
•
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, “The Yellow Wallpaper” (1892)
•
Charles Dickens, “The Trial for Murder” (1865)
Credit points will be assigned on the basis of:
“Aktive Teilnahme”: presentation and short paper (5-10 pages)
Term paper (15 pages)
“Unbenotete Teilleistung”: presentation (max. 20 minutes)

The Gothic Imagination continues to exercise a powerful influence over twenty-first century cultural life. After
all, vampires, monsters and doubles are still familiar inhabitants of our contemporary literary and cultural
landscapes. In this seminar we will read and analyse some of the most iconic texts of the nineteenth century
which either created or breathed fresh life into the genre's conventions, including: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and Oscar Wilde's The Picture
of Dorian Gray. We will explore various critical approaches, with a special emphasis on feminist and queer
theory. A good overall introduction is provided by Fred Botting's Gothic, 2013. Students are encouraged to
read the primary texts before the start of the seminar. Additional material and reading lists will be provided
on the Moodle intranet site. Credits can be earned by active participation, by written examinations, and by
papers of varying lengths.

Britain’s most important man is not the prime minister or his doctor. No, it is the man who is on her majesty’s
secret service: James Bond. Daniel Craig has recently stated that he is no longer willing to live and let die.
Thus, it appears it is time to take stock of the oeuvre so far and critically assess the spy who loves all women,
dry martinis and a view to kill.
We will apply many theories – such as psychoanalysis, gender, (post-)colonialism, cultural geography, and
many more – to find out whether Bond’s world is ‘not enough’. Yet, as he is not the only one with a licence to
kill we will also consider the competition.
Be aware that you have to watch many movies on your own! You are expected to hand in two essays about
two different texts during the semester.

“Keep back, lady, no one is going to catch me and make me a man.” (J.M. Barrie Peter and Wendy)
Refusing to grow up and face the facts is a trait common in many young men – why work when playing is so
much more fun? However, there is a time when one has to realise and admit that youth is not infinite, nor that
perpetual egocentrism is a good idea.
In this course, we will primarily discuss three novels with very different problems and crises: Identity,
masculinity, family, religion and/or sexuality. It appears that in recent years men have become miserable – but
who or what is to blame for that?
In order to pass this course you have to write a term paper. Please buy the novels (not as e-books!) and start
reading soon as not all are an easy read.

Novelist, playwright, journalist, film critic, intelligence agent, war correspondent: as manifold as the list of
Graham Greene’s professions is his literary output and his variety of topics and settings. Greene (1904-1991)
saw most of the 20th century and he saw most of the world, being especially fascinated by political hotspots
in Central America, Africa or Indochina. Therefore, despite his manifest Englishness, his settings range from
Mexico to Vietnam and from Vienna to Sierra Leone – something which is of special interest against the
background of the decline and end of the British Empire in the century he chronicled.
The range of recurrent themes in Greene’s works has often been subsumed as the ”human condition”. At the
heart of his conflicts – political, ideological, religious or personal – are questions of betrayal, faith, guilt and
identity. But Greene is not only one of the 20th century's most interesting novelists; he was also an important
film critic and theoretician, and there is hardly a writer whose works have been so frequently borrowed from
for film adaptations. The Third Man, for example, was voted 'best British film of the century' by the BFI in 1999.
In this seminar, we will try to explore the writer through four short novels and a number of films.
Required Reading:
Greene, Graham. 1938. Brighton Rock.
Greene, Graham. 1955. The Quiet American.
Greene, Graham. 1958. Our Man in Havana.
Greene, Graham. 1980. Doctor Fischer of Geneva or The Bomb Party.

The course investigates the life, the oeuvre and the reception of one of the greatest modernist writers
in Britain and world-wide: Virginia Woolf. We will explore various aspects of her work as writer and critic,
and, furthermore, try to gain a better understanding of her roles as woman and feminist. To do so, we
will study exemplary works of her longer and shorter fiction (novel and short story) as well as her
criticism (essays). In detail, we will investigate such important issues as her view of the role of art and
criticism, her vision of modern fiction, her concepts of truth and psychological reality, the nature of her
stream-of-consciousness technique, the question of écriture feminine as well as the characteristics of
Modernism in literature. These studies will be embedded in various socio-cultural contexts. A look at
Woolf’s letters and diaries will provide us with a more personal perspective on and access to her varied
activities. Film adaptations of some of her major novels will likewise be integrated into the course.
Selected primary literature (fiction (recommended for purchase):

The first actresses arrived on the English stage during the Restoration period. King Charles II decreed
that from 1660 on female parts in plays were to be acted by actresses. In the Elizabethan-Jacobean
age female parts of plays were still acted by men or boy actors. Yet Shakespeare did not regard the
female parts among the dramatis personae as less important than or even inferior to their male
counterparts. On the contrary, he created quite a number of fascinating dramatic heroines without
which his plays would never have been that gripping.
In the course participants are invited to study not only the effectiveness of these characters on the
stage and their important dramaturgical functions within various dramatic sub-genres, but also the
way in which Shakespeare engaged in the contemporary socio-cultural discourse about women and
norms of femininity. This relates to issues such as the relationship of the sexes, the social status of
women, the contemporary system of social norms and values or the tensions between social duty and
personal freedom in the Renaissance, a period of transition from the medieval period to early
modernity. The plays in fact demonstrate a broad variety of female role behaviour ranging from
conventional/traditional to unorthodox/emancipatory stances. Participants will study issues of identity
and gender and explore the interface of social reality, dramatic/artistic/theatrical conception, gender
and genre, dramatic representation and ideology.
The course offers a methodological cross-over between literary studies (analysis and interpretation
of dramas as printed texts) and theatre studies (the study of the performance and production of plays
in the theatre). This means that aspects of staging will play an important role. This will be achieved
through performance criticism (the ‘implied production’ already inherent within a dramatic text, the
production potential of drama, and the analysis of actual performances). In other words, the study of
the historical performance practice and of modern stage and film adaptations complements the picture
gained from literary studies. Video presentations will be integrated into the course.
Potential participants are asked to study the following texts prior to the course (recommended for
purchase):
As You Like It
Romeo and Juliet
The Taming of the Shrew
King Lear
Twelfth Night
The Merchant of Venice
Recommended editions for purchase:
•

Raymond Williams called the 1840s the "most fascinating" decade in British history. He has a point, because
this decade is so full of events, developments, debates and innovations which transformed the United Kingdom
that one does not know where to begin. This is the railway age with all its technological, economic and cultural
implications; this is the age of Chartism in which the social classes in Great Britain start to re-conceptualise
their position vis-à-vis each other; this is the decade in which the worst Irish potato famine begins, which affects
all parts of the kingdom; this decade sees the rise of the music hall, fierce debates over a 'national' style in
architecture, and it is a decade with an unprecedented output in literature: Dickens, the Brontë sisters,
Thackeray, Gaskell etc.
In this seminar, we will approach the 1840s by reading and discussing historical documents, novels, poems,
buildings, paintings, songs, in order to get a broad understanding for how this decade shaped the Victorian
Age.

The course investigates the life, the oeuvre and the reception of one of the greatest modernist writers
in Britain and world-wide: Virginia Woolf. We will explore various aspects of her work as writer and critic,
and, furthermore, try to gain a better understanding of her roles as woman and feminist. To do so, we
will study exemplary works of her longer and shorter fiction (novel and short story) as well as her
criticism (essays). In detail, we will investigate such important issues as her view of the role of art and
criticism, her vision of modern fiction, her concepts of truth and psychological reality, the nature of her
stream-of-consciousness technique, the question of écriture feminine as well as the characteristics of
Modernism in literature. These studies will be embedded in various socio-cultural contexts. A look at
Woolf’s letters and diaries will provide us with a more personal perspective on and access to her varied
activities. Film adaptations of some of her major novels will likewise be integrated into the course.

The first actresses arrived on the English stage during the Restoration. King Charles II decreed that
from 1660 on female parts in plays were to be acted by actresses. In the Elizabethan-Jacobean age
female parts of plays were still acted by men or boy actors. Yet Shakespeare did not regard the female
parts among the dramatis personae as less important than or even inferior to their male counterparts.
On the contrary, he created quite a number of fascinating dramatic heroines without which his plays
would never have been that gripping.
In the course participants are invited to study not only the effectiveness of these characters on the
stage and their important dramaturgical functions within various dramatic sub-genres, but also the
way in which Shakespeare engaged in the contemporary socio-cultural discourse about women and
norms of femininity. This relates to issues such as the relationship of the sexes, the social status of
women, the contemporary system of social norms and values or the tensions between social duty and
personal freedom in the Renaissance, a period of transition from the medieval period to early
modernity. The plays in fact demonstrate a broad variety of female role behaviour ranging from
conventional/traditional to unorthodox/emancipatory stances. Participants will study issues of identity
and gender and explore the interface of social reality, dramatic/artistic/theatrical conception, gender
and genre, dramatic representation and ideology.
The course offers a methodological cross-over between literary studies (analysis and interpretation
of dramas as printed texts) and theatre studies (the study of the performance and production of plays
in the theatre). This means that aspects of staging will play an important role. This will be achieved
through performance criticism (the ‘implied production’ already inherent within a dramatic text, the
production potential of drama, and the analysis of actual performances). In other words, the study of
the historical performance practice and of modern stage and film adaptations complements the picture
gained from literary studies. Video presentations will be integrated into the course.

This seminar will focus on William Blake, the Shelleys, and Wordsworth as political and cultural
revolutionaries of their period, emphasising the importance of the French Revolution for our authors and the
need to understand their philosophical and cultural background. As well as reading major poetry by our
featured authors, we will focus on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre as

investigations of the ethical and religious limits of rebellion. Students should read these two novels before
term starts.
Students will be able to write examinations and term papers as well as developing projects. Active
participation in the seminar will be required. Extensive reading lists and other help, including texts of the
poetry, will be available on the university’s website.

There is no study of culture(s) without some theories which describe, define, and debate how culture(s) should
be studied. Theory, however, should not be an end in itself; theories should help us explain the world and the
cultural contexts in which we live. This course is intended as an introduction to the study of culture(s), covering
such topics as identity and difference, representation, high versus popular culture, etc.

Britain’s most important man is not the prime minister or his doctor. No, it is the man who is on her majesty’s
secret service: James Bond. Daniel Craig has recently stated that he is no longer willing to live and let die.
Thus, it appears it is time to take stock of the oeuvre so far and critically assess the spy who loves all women,
dry martinis and a view to kill.
We will apply many theories – such as psychoanalysis, gender, (post-)colonialism, cultural geography, and
many more – to find out whether Bond’s world is ‘not enough’. Yet, as he is not the only one with a licence to
kill we will also consider the competition.
Be aware that you have to watch many movies on your own! You are expected to hand in two essays about
two different texts during the semester.

“Keep back, lady, no one is going to catch me and make me a man.” (J.M. Barrie Peter and Wendy)
Refusing to grow up and face the facts is a trait common in many young men – why work when playing is so
much more fun? However, there is a time when one has to realise and admit that youth is not infinite, nor that
perpetual egocentrism is a good idea.
In this course, we will primarily discuss three novels with very different problems and crises: Identity,
masculinity, family, religion and/or sexuality. It appears that in recent years men have become miserable – but
who or what is to blame for that?
In order to pass this course you have to write a term paper. Please buy the novels (not as e-books!) and start
reading soon as not all are an easy read.

Novelist, playwright, journalist, film critic, intelligence agent, war correspondent: as manifold as the list of
Graham Greene’s professions is his literary output and his variety of topics and settings. Greene (1904-1991)
saw most of the 20th century and he saw most of the world, being especially fascinated by political hotspots
in Central America, Africa or Indochina. Therefore, despite his manifest Englishness, his settings range from
Mexico to Vietnam and from Vienna to Sierra Leone – something which is of special interest against the
background of the decline and end of the British Empire in the century he chronicled.
The range of recurrent themes in Greene’s works has often been subsumed as the ”human condition”. At the
heart of his conflicts – political, ideological, religious or personal – are questions of betrayal, faith, guilt and
identity. But Greene is not only one of the 20th century's most interesting novelists; he was also an important
film critic and theoretician, and there is hardly a writer whose works have been so frequently borrowed from
for film adaptations. The Third Man, for example, was voted 'best British film of the century' by the BFI in 1999.
In this seminar, we will try to explore the writer through four short novels and a number of films.

"A 'world' can be as small as a storage closet and as large as an entire universe; indeed, some stories have
taken place on the underside of a leaf, within a single droplet of water." (Jeff Vandermeer)
Worlds are the settings of our lives, the novels, TV series or computer games we choose to immerse
ourselves into. But what are they made up of? How are they constructed? In this course we will disassemble
fictional worlds and take a closer look at their building parts. We will examine concepts like Mythopoeia or
Fantasy to explore storyworlds and realities in various media and gain insight into the workings of
worldbuilding. Be prepared to actively participate in discussions and aware that you might become a
worldbuilder as well.
First session: Bring your own world! Be ready to shortly present a world of your choice.

What has been labelled the refugee ‘crisis’ concerning the recent increase of immigration to Europe from
the Middle East and Africa is in fact anything but unprecedented in the modern history of human migration.
The 19th century, especially the second half, was marked by a massive exodus from Europe, and is therefore
considered the Age of Mass Migration. Ireland alone lost an overall 2.1 million of its population between
1845 and 1852, during the Great Famine and its immediate aftermath. Equal proportions apply to emigration
from Scotland and Wales, as well as certain parts of England.
Along with their material belongings, émigrés took with them notions of home, feelings of displacement and
exile, as well as their familiar cultural forms to their new continental, transatlantic or transpacific communities.
This class will focus on the cultural baggage of British and Irish emigrants of the 19th century by considering
perspectives of hybridity, diaspora, nostalgia, and reconceptualisations of history and nationalism, class,
gender and ethnicity in émigré literature and culture. A ‘reader’ will be made available on Moodle by the
beginning of the semester. Attendance of the first session is compulsory.

On 15 October 2016, the French historian of ideas Michel Foucault (1926-1984) would have celebrated his
90th birthday. In addition, 2016 also marks the 50th anniversary of his major work, The Order of Things (Les
Mots et les Choses). Nonetheless, Foucault's thinking is hardly out-dated. A wide variety of academic
disciplines, amongst them cultural studies, is still profoundly indebted to his insights and his unique way of
unearthing the historical formation of conceptions that shape our cultural self-understanding (madness,
sexuality etc.). Many theoretical terms central to the study of culture – discourse, power, biopolitics, heterotopia, épistème, governmentality, panopticism and many more – were redefined or coined by Foucault in
such a definitive way that it is hardly possible to underestimate his influence.
In the course of this seminar, we will read a representative selection of Foucault's wide-ranging writings in
order to make you familiar not only with Foucauldian thinking as such, but with the intricacies of cultural
theory in general.
Please note that this seminar is a very theory-heavy one. A keen interest in and willingness to read dense
theoretical texts is expected. This course is also particularly recommended for students of Angewandte Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaft.
A reader with the required texts will be available in the Copyshop.

Among the social sciences emerging around the late 19th and early 20th century, psychoanalysis can be
considered one of the most influential disciplines. Sigmund Freud’s and his successors’ theories did not only
43
provide innovative methods to assess human psychology, but have also shaped the way we think of
ourselves and others on an everyday basis. In fact, contemporary Western civilization is by now almost
unimaginable without the knowledge of key Freudian concepts such as the unconscious, the superego or
the id. As Stephen Frosh explains, “the psychological theories that take hold in a culture are not just
descriptions of what people are like; they also produce people in their own image” (2012: 5). In that sense,
the critical study of psychoanalytic theory does not only equip students with theoretical and methodological
tools to explain and understand individuals, cultures and societies – it also enables them to see how cultural
practices are often already shaped by and thus reflexive of psychoanalytic ideas.
Needless to say, psychoanalysis has also had a significant impact on the study of culture, from Freudian
interpretations of literary texts and psychoanalytic film theory to the study of cultural practices, and scholars
of Cultural Studies such as Stuart Hall, Paul Gilroy and Michael Rustin have employed psychoanalytic
theories. In this seminar, we will acquaint ourselves with some of the central ideas of psychoanalytic theorists
such as Sigmund Freud, Jacques Lacan, Julia Kristeva, Slavoj Žižek and others to see how these can be
used for the study of cultural phenomena from a psychoanalytic perspective. We will explore how
psychoanalysis can be used to study a range of phenomena of British culture and to explain aspects such
as politics, racism, class and gender. We will, however, also consider a more critical take on psychoanalysis
by studying texts by some of its most important critics such as Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari.
Please note that this seminar is a very theory-heavy one. A keen interest in and willingness to read dense
theoretical texts is expected. This course is also particularly recommended for students of

How many times have you checked your Facebook account today? Are you on snapchat? Have you swiped
right or left on Tinder last time? The answers to these questions are private – but have you checked the legal
guidelines, which state that?
You will be investigating the current state of society and how deeply we are steeped in technology in this
project seminar. Starting with theories on cyborgs and working our way through current ideas on the topic of
“technology”, you will critically examine various phenomena: social networks, dating apps and global consumption.
You have to compile an investigative diary that includes theory and data, which you will gather yourself. Please
be aware that you will have to work to fulfil the tasks – this course does not mean just going on Facebook and
posting funny hashtags! Anglistik/Amerikanistik students: You can take this course only if you have
successfully passed the module which includes the introduction to British literary and cultural studies!
This course is especially recommended for Angewandte Kulturwissenschaften!

The course investigates the life, the oeuvre and the reception of one of the greatest modernist writers in Britain
and world-wide: Virginia Woolf. We will explore various aspects of her work as writer and critic, and, furthermore, try to gain a better understanding of her roles as woman and feminist. To do so, we will study exemplary
works of her longer and shorter fiction (novel and short story) as well as her criticism (essays). In detail, we
will investigate such important issues as her view of the role of art and criticism, her vision of modern fiction,
her concepts of truth and psychological reality, the nature of her stream-of-consciousness technique, the
question of écriture feminine as well as the characteristics of Modernism in literature. These studies will be
embedded in various socio-cultural contexts. A look at Woolf’s letters and diaries will provide us with a more
personal perspective on and access to her varied activities. Film adaptations of some of her major novels will
likewise be integrated into the course.

The first actresses arrived on the English stage during the Restoration period. King Charles II decreed that
from 1660 on female parts in plays were to be acted by actresses. In the Elizabethan-Jacobean age female
parts of plays were still acted by men or boy actors. Yet Shakespeare did not regard the female parts among
the dramatis personae as less important than or even inferior to their male counterparts. On the contrary, he
created quite a number of fascinating dramatic heroines without which his plays would never have been that
gripping.
In the course participants are invited to study not only the effectiveness of these characters on the stage and
their important dramaturgical functions within various dramatic sub-genres, but also the way in which
Shakespeare engaged in the contemporary socio-cultural discourse about women and norms of femininity.
This relates to issues such as the relationship of the sexes, the social status of women, the contemporary
system of social norms and values or the tensions between social duty and personal freedom in the
Renaissance, a period of transition from the medieval period to early modernity. The plays in fact demonstrate a broad variety of female role behaviour ranging from conventional/traditional to unorthodox/emancipatory stances. Participants will study issues of identity and gender and explore the interface of social
reality, dramatic/artistic/theatrical conception, gender and genre, dramatic representation and ideology.
The course offers a methodological cross-over between literary studies (analysis and interpretation of
dramas as printed texts) and theatre studies (the study of the performance and production of plays in the
theatre). This means that aspects of staging will play an important role. This will be achieved through performance criticism (the ‘implied production’ already inherent within a dramatic text, the production potential
of drama, and the analysis of actual performances). In other words, the study of the historical performance
practice and of modern stage and film adaptations complements the picture gained from literary studies.
Video presentations will be integrated into the course.

This seminar will focus on William Blake, the Shelleys, and Wordsworth as political and cultural revolutionaries of their period, emphasising the importance of the French Revolution for our authors and the need
to understand their philosophical and cultural background. As well as reading major poetry by our featured
authors, we will focus on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre as investigations of
the ethical and religious limits of rebellion. Students should read these two novels before term starts.
Students will be able to write examinations and term papers as well as developing projects. Active participation in the seminar will be required. Extensive reading lists and other help, including texts of the poetry,
will be available on the university’s website.

In “Walt Whitman and the Arab World,” we will study the significance of Walt Whitman for Arabic literature.
After exploring Walt Whitman’s poetry, we will deal with the Mahjar School of Arab émigré writers in the
Americas. These writers are particularly important because they transferred Whitman’s free verse to Arabic
literature. The focus will be on Ameen Rihani, who is considered the “father” of the Arab American Literature,
and Gibran Khalil Gibran, the most celebrated Arab American writer and most familiar to American readers.
The main goal of this course is to explore Whitman’s role for Arabic poetry by introducing free verse and
other innovations to demonstrate the degree to which Whitman has actually become “domesticated” in Arab
poetry both aesthetically and thematically. No knowledge of the Arabic language is required.

This course will investigate varying literary representations of home and Heimat in contemporary American
and German literature. In an increasingly global community, many feel a stronger drive than ever to find
connection with home; however, this drive is often precipitated by the feeling that one has already lost
something of that same home/Heimat. Each of the five required texts approaches home/Heimat from a
different perspective and sub-group of American and German cultures. The mechanisms through which the
figures in each text develop and build a sense of home and identity will be of particular interest to this course.

the nation?” We will also use the insights drawn from our readings and discussions to investigate how our
definitions of nation and national literature are connected to the wider political debates raging in Germany

“America’s public enemy number one in the United States is drug abuse. In order to fight and defeat this
enemy, it is necessary to wage a new, all-out offensive.” This pronouncement by President Richard Nixon in
1971 ushered in a more aggressive, yet utterly misguided drug policy whose far-reaching implications have
wreaked havoc ever since. Domestically, narcotics-related charges have been used to disproportionately
imprison socially and economically disadvantaged Americans. In her book The New Jim Crow, Michelle
Alexander states that the mass incarceration of young African American men resulting from the war on drugs
functions as a “comprehensive and well-disguised system of racialized social control.” Globally, the U.S. has
financed futile, locally destructive efforts to curb drug trafficking and cartel activity particularly in its southern
neighbor, Mexico, and Colombia. The war on drugs has failed miserably.
Popular culture has been engaging with the complex socio-political dynamics of the war on drugs through a
variety of means, some of which we will explore in this class. By drawing on several contemporary examples,
we will analyze their depictions of the sprawling drug enterprise and its societal toll (or their lack thereof). We
will use the following texts, among others, and examine how they construct and comment on the individual,
social, political, and economic ramifications of the war on drugs: Steven Soderbergh’s Traffic, Denis
Villeneuve’s Sicario, Vince Gilligan’s Breaking Bad, David Simon’s The Wire, and works by crime author Don
Winslow. The audio-visual materials discussed in class will be made available in optional screenings following
the course’s regular time slot (i.e. Thursdays 16:00-17:30).
This course is particularly recommended for students of the Angewandte Studiengänge.

The project of this course will be to carefully read and annotate Henry David Thoreau's Walden as a class.
In doing so, we will explore its place in the cultural context of the American 1850s. How is Thoreau
responding to contemporary issues, including Transcendentalism, industrialization, and the slavery problem? How does he position himself in relation to other contemporary authors, including Emerson and
Melville? By pairing lose readings of Walden with critical pieces by Leo Marx, Thomas Augst,
F.O.Matthiessen and others, we will trace the allusions and references that abound in Thoreau's masterpiece
to see how it talks back to the dominant culture. Additional readings about annotation as a scholarly activity
will lead to short written assignments that will guide class discussion.

Literary translation is a form of creative writing. Retranslation is the renewed translation of a text, offering
another interpretation and appearing in a new context. A retranslation relates not only to the source text but to
the former translation(s) as well. We will explore (re)translations in theory and practice. Translation will be used
as a tool for analysis and literary criticism. This means that students will also translate literature themselves.
N.B.: Students need to be proficient in English and German.

rooted in British or US American culture. In the oncoming festal season we will take a look at texts that are of
central importance to this time of the year, such as Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol or Frank Capra's movie
It's a Wonderful Life, which left a considerable mark on later texts on Christmas. Students participating in this

bond of not having a place in society’s handbook, and not wanting one.”
The Beats, as in beaten down, beatific and beautiful, were a collective of writers, artists and thinkers that
congregated in 1950s San Francisco. They challenged the status quo and wrote honestly about their
experience with sex, Eastern philosophy and drugs. They pioneered the value of spontaneous creativity and
the belief that whatever was written in the moment contained truth, even if it didn’t fit the rules. Together they
created an alternative to their decade’s dominant culture of conformity and consumption. Today their work
continues to inspire curious minds to question, experiment and seek what is true over what is expected.”
In this seminar, we will read and discuss some of the most important literature from the Beat Generation.
Works will include, but not be limited to, Jack Kerouac’s On the Road and/or Big Sur, Allen Ginsberg’s Howl
and William S. Burroughs’ Naked Lunch. The seminar sessions will be accompanied by film screenings and
we will look at music and art of the era which undoubtedly was influenced by the Beats but also reciprocally
had its impact on them.
Individual or group presentations as well as short essays will contribute to Studienleistung (Aktive Teilnahme),
all other course requirements will be discussed in the first session.

The 19th century marks a time of rapid ideological and cultural change in the United States. American
Romanticism, in particular, emphasizes individuality and posits personal experience as the arbiter of increasingly subjective realities, which, in turn, necessitated the exploration of new narrative forms. Short stories
are one of the most important new arrivals on the American literary landscape and provided an essential
medium for creative output and outreach. Numerous literary magazines and other periodicals regularly
published shorter prose pieces and thereby gave authors access to a wide readership across the country.
These explicitly fictional texts allowed the skilled storyteller to explore the human condition extensively and
affect readers on a cognitive and an emotional level.
In this class, we will take a brief look at the rise of the American short story and then focus upon those stories
that explore the darker aspects of human existence. Authors like Herman Melville, Nathaniel Hawthorne,
and, most prominently, Edgar Allan Poe, created a wide array of characters who betray their loved ones,
murder their alleged friends, bury relatives alive, are haunted by the sins of their past, enter deals with the
devil, and cross any number of lines in the pursuit of their deepest and darkest desires. Their actions
frequently challenge the very notion of human beings as fundamentally good. We will look at how this shifting
understanding of humanity affects individual identities, social relations, and the creation of personal
narratives, and what makes these morbid tales of individual suffering and moral transgressions so
fascinating to readers then and now.

“We will build a wall!” Exclusionary immigration politics such as Trump’s - in the most fantastical as well as
more moderate formulations - have a long tradition in the American imaginative. Often this exclusionary
vision is based on the belief that one has to ‘patrol’ the American border and by implication American identity.
Border Studies responds to this discourse and the realities of the border, borderlands and immigration
politics and their representations.
This course explores the construction of the US-Mexico Border, its literatures and narratives and the
communities, peoples, and identities that have developed on both sides of the dividing line as well as in the
“contact-zones.” Topics will include metaphors of division and liminality, hierarchically structured migration,
conceptualizations of the nation as a closed entity or “imagined community,” identity politics in “contact
zones,” stories about transgressing the border and other divisive lines, and hybridization in the borderlands.
A principal objective here is to interrogate the standard imaginative and ideology of “the border” and explore
new and alternative conceptualizations in its American/-Mexican specificities and to question the general
implications and consequences of division at (national) borders.
Readings are likely to include: Gloria Anzaldua’s Borderlands / La Frontera: the New Mestiza (1987), T.C
Boyles’ The Tortilla Curtain (1995), Karen Tei Yamashita’s The Tropic of Orange (1997), contemporary short
stories, poetry by Rodney Gomez and Joseph Delgado, and some recent works in Border Studies.

In this course, we will read and discuss theories of comedy and identity. In his book Representation, the
cultural studies scholar Stuart Hall insists on the interdependency of identity and othering, us and them,
inclusion and exclusion. He writes about categories of identity such as gender, race, class, sexual
preference, and age. ‘Passing’ is the performative effort by which people try to be accepted as part of a
group which they used to be excluded from – as part of a different gender, race, or class.
We will think about specific examples of American comedies that make identity, othering, and passing their
topic.
Requirements: The theory will be made use of in a project. Every student will analyze a sitcom and contribute
to an extensive group presentation. You will design your own research project which will be introduced,
discussed, and developed cooperatively, with the whole seminar.
In addition, there will be compulsory film screening sessions on some Tuesdays starting at 4 p.m.

This seminar investigates the significance of the bible for American culture. The bible is a central text in the
development of the American colonies and the U.S. for both dominant and the marginal cultures. The
seminar investigates the various cultural uses of the bible from the Puritan beginnings to the “televangelists”
of our days. Using a web-based text of the bible, students will investigate biblical references in the texts
studied, contextualize them and investigate their cultural effectiveness. Texts will be provided at the
beginning of the semester. A very basic knowledge of the bible is helpful, though not required. A good
preparation for the class would include the first two books, Genesis and Exodus, ideally in the King James
version although a German version will also do. Please note that this is not a seminar in theology but in
American cultural history. However, students of religion are most welcome.

In spite of many book-length Whitman editions in German, the first edition of Walt Whitman’s Leaves of
Grass published in 1855, considered by many the most important version, has never been translated into
German. In this seminar participants will continue – and complete – the task of creating the pioneering
translation of the first edition of Leaves. The work on the translation will be paralleled by a discussion of
interpretative questions leading to a deepened understanding of this seminar work. Ultimately, participating
students will be co-authors of the published translation.

“More than a century after his death, American poets still talk about, talk to and back to Walt Whitman. So
palpable is Whitman’s presence that it is difficult for an American poet to define himself or herself without
direct reference to him,” writes Ed Folsom in the Introduction to the volume The Measure of His Song, a
collection of global voices responding to Whitman.
Taking a “Passage to more than India,” we will start with a careful reading and analysis of some of Whitman’s
poetry and an overview of his reception in the U.S. and beyond. In the second part, this class engages with
one contemporary poet, novelist and essayist continuing Whitman’s long-term legacy, the Indian American
writer Meena Alexander. Meena Alexander is a truly “global” poet: born in India, having grown up there and
in the Sudan, having studied in England and now living and writing in the U.S. Her poetry, written at a time
of global conflict, picks up many topics and voices that resonate well with Whitman – but she also addresses
him directly in her writing, claming that “[she] could not have come to the United States without Whitman”
(The Poetics of Dislocation). What, then, does it mean to respond to Whitman, to reason with him, and to
write to and about him in the 20th/21st century?
A reader will be made available at the beginning of the semester.

In this seminar we will investigate the work of the novelist, playwright, journalist and essayist Pearl Cleage.
Growing up in a politically conscious and active family that celebrated Black Pride early on and coming of
age in the 1960’s influenced Cleage’s writing and political activism. As a resident of Southwest Atlanta she
is exploring aspects of contemporary African-American urban life in many of her novels. Cleage is known for
addressing uncomfortable truths and dedicating her work to the often unhonored and difficult experiences of
Black women.
Given Cleage’s background and her work, the course offers rich opportunities to gain deeper insights into
various aspects of American culture such as racism and sexism, the Black Arts Movement, Black Feminism,
or the significance of Atlanta in the reverse migration of Black people to the South.
The reading list for this course includes among others the novel What Looks Like Crazy on an Ordinary Day,
excerpts from her autobiographical text Things I Should Have Told My Daughter, some of her plays such as
Flyin’ West and shorter non-fiction pieces of writing such as “Mad at Miles”.
Please purchase the novel What Looks Like Crazy on an Ordinary Day and start reading.

American author Kurt Vonnegut once voiced his concern concerning censorship by stating: “I hate it that
Americans are taught to fear some books and some ideas as though they were diseases.” This quote already
summarizes some of the main topics related to the act of reading, questions of power distributions, and the
terminology used in the discourse on censorship. In the past, book bans were a serious issue in the United
States and until the mid-20th century, publishing and selling forbidden books was legally prosecuted. Today,
books are still banned or “challenged” as libraries continue to remove supposedly outrageous titles from their
shelves – often in response to a complaint filed by citizens and certain titles are taken from school curricula.
Yet, what does it mean to ban or challenge a book? What does the practice of censorship reveal about the
power of the written word? Who bans books and why? Given the possibility to obtain books via the internet
– even if your public library or bookstore does not offer the title – is there still the need to discuss the fact
that books are still being banned?
This course will investigate these questions as well as closely analyze and discuss novels that have been
banned or challenged in the United States. Students will be encouraged to critically engage with primary
sources that were once considered “problematic” or “outrageous” to understand the political, social, and
cultural circumstances that led to the fact that these titles were considered off-limits. Furthermore, we will
discuss the rhetoric use by those who ask(ed) to ban books and those who fight for “the freedom to read.”
Last but not least, as many censorship cases in the U.S. are initiated by parents asking that a certain book
is removed from the school curricula, the issue of censorship in schools will be discussed as well.
Books to be purchased and read:
Helen Hunt Jackson. Ramona. (1884)
Henry Miller. The Tropic of Cancer. (1934)
Tony Morrison. Beloved. (1987)
Alice Seabold. The Lovely Bones. (2002)

In this course, we will consider professional authorship as an intrinsically collaborative act. Between
manuscript and print, a range of interlocutors determine what linguistic and physical form a work of literature
will take: editors, literary executors, book designers, and others all have a hand in creating what is eventually
published. We will consider several of these literary “middle-men” by pairing canonical authors with
mediators who were in some way influential to how their work was produced, distributed, and perceived. By
examining these social relationships, we will also explore the cultural conditions under which authors worked
at various times in American history. Examples of these pairs include Edgar Allan Poe and Rufus Griswold,
Emily Dickinson and Thomas Wentworth Higginson, and Langston Hughes and Charlotte Mason. Readings
from these authors will be supplemented with critical work drawing from textual criticism, literary theory, and
social history.

The Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore are three Southeast Asian countries situated along the South
China Sea. They are politically united as member states of ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations)
and share populations comprising divergent ethnic groups. Historically they are linked by periods of colonial
rule. The Philippines, a former Spanish colony, was ceded to the United States in 1898 after the SpanishAmerican War. The present Malaysia and Singapore were colonized by Great Britain in the nineteenth
century and were often referred to as British Malaya.
What types of American texts (novels, poems, films, music, etc.) entered these former colonial entities? How
did the local receptions of them unfold in both colonial and postcolonial periods? How were the issues of
race, class, and gender implicated in the reception processes? Through the close textual analysis of a variety
56
of imported American as well as Filipino, Malaysian and Singaporean texts, this course aims to introduce
students to the functions of American literature and culture in Southeast Asia from the late nineteenth century
to the present.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s Evangeline (1847), Carlos Bulosan’s Chorus for America (1942) and Shirley
Geok-lin Lim’s Among the White Moon Faces (1996) are some of the texts to be assigned in class.

In this course, we will read and discuss theories of comedy and identity. In his book Representation, the cultural
studies scholar Stuart Hall insists on the interdependency of identity and othering, us and them, inclusion and
exclusion. He writes about categories of identity such as gender, race, class, sexual preference, and age.
‘Passing’ is the performative effort by which people try to be accepted as part of a group which they used to
be excluded from – as part of a different gender, race, or class.
We will think about specific examples of American comedies that make identity, othering, and passing their
topic.
Requirements: The theory will be made use of in a project. Every student will analyze a sitcom and contribute
to an extensive group presentation. You will design your own research project which will be introduced,
discussed, and developed cooperatively, with the whole seminar.
In addition, there will be compulsory film screening sessions on some Tuesdays starting at 4 p.m.

will be based on historically and medially specific constructions of soundscapes for example in literature and
on the theater stage and compare soundscapes in different media.
This is a project seminar. Groups will design their own project which will be introduced, discussed, and
developed cooperatively, with the whole seminar. Expect to read many theoretical texts.
There will be extra film screening sessions on some Tuesdays starting at 4:00 p.m. which are obligatory.

This seminar investigates the significance of the bible for American culture. The bible is a central text in the
development of the American colonies and the U.S. for both dominant and the marginal cultures. The
seminar investigates the various cultural uses of the bible from the Puritan beginnings to the “televangelists”
of our days. Using a web-based text of the bible, students will investigate biblical references in the texts
studied, contextualize them and investigate their cultural effectiveness. Texts will be provided at the
beginning of the semester. A very basic knowledge of the bible is helpful, though not required. A good
preparation for the class would include the first two books, Genesis and Exodus, ideally in the King James
version although a German version will also do. Please note that this is not a seminar in theology but in
American cultural history. However, students of religion are most welcome.

In spite of many book-length Whitman editions in German, the first edition of Walt Whitman’s Leaves of
Grass published in 1855, considered by many the most important version, has never been translated into
German. In this seminar participants will continue – and complete – the task of creating the pioneering
translation of the first edition of Leaves. The work on the translation will be paralleled by a discussion of
interpretative questions leading to a deepened understanding of this seminar work. Ultimately, participating
students will be co-authors of the published translation.

“More than a century after his death, American poets still talk about, talk to and back to Walt Whitman. So
palpable is Whitman’s presence that it is difficult for an American poet to define himself or herself without
direct reference to him,” writes Ed Folsom in the Introduction to the volume The Measure of His Song, a
collection of global voices responding to Whitman in one way or another.
Taking a “Passage to more than India,” we will start with a careful reading and analysis of some of Whitman’s
poetry and an overview of his reception in the U.S. and beyond. In the second part, this class engages with
one contemporary poet, novelist and essayist continuing Whitman’s long-term legacy, the Indian American
writer Meena Alexander. Meena Alexander is a truly “global” poet: born in India, having grown up there and
in the Sudan, having studied in England and now living and writing in the U.S. Her poetry, written at a time
of global conflict, picks up many topics and voices that resonate well with Whitman – but she also addresses
him directly in her writing, claming that “[she] could not have come to the United States without Whitman”
(The Poetics of Dislocation). What, then, does it mean to respond to Whitman, to reason with him, and to
write to and about him in the 20th/21st century?
A reader will be made available at the beginning of the semester.

The Mexican presence in the United States goes back to at least the end of the war between the U.S. and
Mexico in 1848, when the U.S.A. acquired from Mexico the territories that now constitute the Southwest of
the United States. Oral and written literary traditions by individuals of Mexican descent were generally
excluded from the canon of American literature for at least a century. Only with José Antonio Villarreal’s
Pocho (1959) and with the Chicano Movement that started in the late 1960s did Mexican American literature
gain wider recognition. It developed from a literature centered on oppression and resistance to an expression
of ethnic pride and, since the 1980s, into an exploration of diverse arenas from feminism to border
consciousness and from the situation of farmworkers to gang culture. Students are asked to purchase the
