Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

In this seminar, we will analyse well-known contemporary Australian novels, short stories, plays and an autobiography written by contemporary Australian writers. The course intends to give a broad introduction to the themes, techniques and styles employed by internationally renowned Australian authors. The texts selected will often, though by no means exclusively, focus on conflicts between the white settlers and the aboriginal inhabitants, but will also comprise formally interesting dramas and surreal short stories.
