Special focus will be put on the meaning of the texts in the historical, cultural and social contexts of the respective literary period. This analysis will be embedded in a discussion of related stylistic devices and narrative strategies such as: dramatic monologue, metaficiton, intertextuality, rewriting, deconstruction. Literature will be read in context of responding to changing historical, social and cultural conditions wherein literary devices become discursive tools for critical comment and reflection.
Secondary & partly primary texts will be provided on MOODLE.
There will be Topic-Sheets for oral-presentation & weekly mails with info on reading-assignments and class-organization- Lecturer partly provides background info PPTs with accompanying AUDIO-lectures.
- topic-sheets for orientation on moodle- Oral presentations: PPT as usual with audio-commenting
will be provided on moodle & discussed in plenum-discussions (detailed info in the first session!)
A detailed info-file on this concept will be available on Moodle.
