- Beschreibung:
- This seminar attempts to follow in the footsteps of luminaries such as J.R.R. Tolkien, Marc Okrand, or David Joshua Peterson. They all went from studying (living) languages to using this very knowledge to create artificial languages for the most different of peoples and cultural backgrounds. In this course, we shall shed some light on their methods and, finally, the participants will be asked to become linguistically creative to develop their own (rudimentary) artificial language.The course will consist of theoretical as well as practical phases. In the first, the structure of languages will be analysed on all levels, starting with phonemes up to syntax, language typology, and etymologies. This will be the foundation on which we will look into some selected artificial languages and their grammars.In the practical part of the seminar, the participants will then be asked to form groups and use the gained theoretical knowledge actively in creating their own language. Due to the structure of the seminar, participants are expected to work actively and independently.

- Beschreibung:
- A story can be no greater than its creator, but together they forge new ground, becoming far more than either alone – Even long before people started writing their stories down, old tales had been invented, narrated, and re-narrated making fantasy as old as human culture. Originally, these fantastic narratives have never been a mere children's diversion but they offered morals, values and much more. Today, however, an unfortunate multitude of people look down upon or even doubt fantasy as a form of meaningful art.This seminar will offer a linguistic introduction into the vast field of fantasy. We willinvestigate the serious linguistic aspects related to selected works of fantasy, from oldfairy-tales up to more recent bestsellers such as Tolkien's works or Game of Thrones. We will also devote some time to the study of selected invented languages as well ascorresponding writing systems. Thus, this seminar will grant us a linguistic access to atopic that is usually reserved for Literary Studies and, therefore, forge interdisciplinarylinks.Participants are expected to be prepared and work actively.

- The class is part of the linguistics module for all first year students (as an alternative to "Introduction to Synchronic Linguistics").You will be given an overview of historical developments of the English language. Wewill cover the fields of phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics from the point of view of their systematic historical developments that have led to Present Day English. Simultaneously you will be introduced to the basic tools of linguistic analysis and description that are valid both for the synchronic and the diachronic approach.By the end of the class you will have acquired the linguistic tools to analyse speechphenomena at a basic level. Moreover, you will have become familiar with the majordevelopments in the history of English. You are thus provided with the competence to apply basic analytic procedures to historical as well as modern texts and to attend further classes in historical linguistics and/or medieval studies.The introductory course is accompanied by a tutorial (1 h per week).

- Beschreibung:
- There are nearly 400 million native speakers of English worldwide and many who speak it as a second or foreign language, making it one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. Despite speaking the same language, some English speakers may struggle to understand each other and so it might happen that, for instance, a speaker from Los Angeles can hardly follow a speaker from Glasgow in a conversation. Each variety of English has a distinctive sound that distinguishes it from others. This class will delve into the sound – or rather the sounds – of selected varieties of the English language, as well as explore their historical background.

- Beschreibung:
- Since the post-World-War-Two-era, American writers with African American, Native American, Asian American, Latino American, and, in more recent time, also Arab American cultural histories have increasingly inspired the traditions of American short story writing. Although presenting an enormous stylistic and thematic variety, their narratives share some basic characteristics, among others a memory of oppression and public "invisibility" as the "Other" and a strong oral tradition of storytelling that fuses their rich imaginative powers, their mythic traditions and magical symbolisms. Reading selected short stories written against the background of highly diverse ethnic cultural contexts and discussing them in interaction with basic discourses of postcolonial theory, students are expected to experience the great variety of literary voices and the multiplicity of themes explored in late 20th century US-American short fiction.

- Beschreibung:
- From foreboding cliffs, lonely lighthouses, to choppy seas, the coasts of the British Isles have always stoked the imaginations of writers, lending not only literary significance to these spaces between land and sea but sparking a wealth of tales about inexplicable events, adventures and encounters with the unknown on what seems to be familiar shores. In this seminar we will explore the literary and cultural significance of these archetypical liminal landscapes, that is the coast line(s) and the sea(s) surrounding the British Isles. We will take a look at the social, cultural and political functions of these spaces and will examine ways in which 'uncanny' or 'weird' stories by authors such as Bram Stoker, Algernon Blackwood or Elenor Smith, negotiate issues such as liminality, nationality, gender, age, ethnicity and sexuality.

- Beschreibung:
- Bonnie Tyler needs a hero; the British Empire needs several – at least according to Alan Moore, one of the most renowned comic book authors of our time. This seminar provides students with an introduction to sequential art, and specifically examines Moore’s reinvention of superhero fiction via a close reading of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. We will discuss how different forms of otherness and marginality are introduced to the normative hero trope through unconventional ‘heroes’ who blur the lines between good and evil, hero and villain, monster and (hu)man. Besides investigating how Moore puts well-established binaries to the test, we will consider the graphic novel in regard to its intertextual potential, drawing on some of the most iconic examples of 19th-century fantastic literature, such as Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, and the scientific romances of H.G. Wells.

- This course will be an exercise in doing research for, conceptualizing, and presenting a research project on Americans abroad. In case studies, you will investigate well-known Americans who have spent decisive moments in their lives in different places abroad, with a focus on (but not limited to) Europe. The task will be to identify texts (their own or other peoples’; fact-based of fictional; plurimedial) and take these as meaning-making anchor points to explore what drove Americans abroad in what historical period, how these persons shaped the places they went and how these places shaped them. You will also identify and explore themes and concepts that are relevant to a particular case, among them voluntary mobility, involuntary migration, expatriation, displacement, home, diaspora, belonging, individual agency, social networks and activism, and Americanization. The seminar begins in the first week of the semester.

- Beschreibung:
- This class provides a comprehensive overview of key events and cultural concepts which have been central to how Americans understand themselves and the United States as a nation. Following a historical trajectory from narratives of ‘discovery’ to more recent developments, we will address questions of belonging and accessibility: Who, at what time, was in the position to lay claim to an ‘American identity,’ and what ostensible values did this affiliation entail? Whose voices are we most familiar with, and whose may contrast with ingrained canonical narratives? How, for instance, did John Winthrop’s City on a Hill appear to women accused of aiding the Devil in its onslaught? Students will learn to critically explore these issues in relation to (ongoing) reverberations in American culture through various analytical lenses, examining the workings of pivotal conceptions such as race, class, or gender throughout the centuries. The introductory course will be accompanied by a tutorial for which available time slots will be announced in the first session.

- Beschreibung:
- Reality TV has fundamentally altered the landscape of programming schedules, introduced satellite and digital channels under specific brandings, generated an autonomous celebrity sector, and transformed viewers into discerning interpreters, and potentially active contributors, to the intricacies of television production (Kavka 2). Thus, it has hybridised the fictional and the factual while blurring the boundaries of public and private space. The lives of “ordinary people” (Barron 4) have leaked into the living rooms and have been consumed by many viewers. However, the alleged ‘reality’ of the ordinary people “becomes an opportunity for people to observe others [that are] not like themselves, which often leads to reinforcement of stereotypes” (Ward 4). In this seminar, we will problematise the aspect of ‘reality’ and unravel how reality TV contributes to the construction of everyday reality, often reinforcing cultural ideologies. In doing so, we will analyse the role of ordinary celebrities in blurring the boundaries of the public and the private, delving into spatial theories (i.e, Goffman’s dramaturgical perspective). We will also engage in cultural theories pertaining to discipline and surveillance, drawing extensively upon Michel Foucault’s works to conceptualise reality TV as a disciplinary apparatus. Therefore, participants are expected to watch the primary sources critically in light of the theoretical approaches we will discuss together. The ‘Prüfungsleistung’ and the required reading will be announced in the first session.

- “[T]here is very little to say about writing short stories unless you are a professional explainer. If you can do it, you don’t have to explain it. If you can not do it, no explanation will ever help”Ernest HemingwayThe epigraph—originally written in 1959 and thought as a preface to Hemingway’s short story collections for classroom use—never made it to publication as the idea of the book was dropped. However, this quote from one of the most acclaimed and also controversial figures in American literature shows that being a great author of short stories does not necessarily equate to having an encompassing understanding of the form. The literary prosaic form distinguishes itself through its length from another more ‘respected’ writing endeavor, the novel. Short stories may seem self- explanatory but among other short forms, they are much more complex than it may seem. Whether it is short stories, short films, music videos, performance art, or poetry, short works of art come in various shapes and sizes in the US and they have a tremendous impact in US culture. In this Übung/Proseminar, we will delve into diverse material, which includes Hemingway’s short stories where what has been said is much less than what has not been said, as the ‘famous’ iceberg theory goes. We will look into suburban middle-class America with Raymond Carver. We will also check out one of Indigenous author Lousie Erdrich’s (Turtle Mountain Band Chippewa) trickster characters. Moreover, we will be watching short films (film-noir, horror), performance art from Indigenous artists, and contemporary queer poetry by acclaimed poet Ocean Vuong. The purpose of this class is to familiarize ourselves with short forms from different times and different voices in American society. We will try to answer questions such as: How does the form affect the content? What are the ways that limited space and time ‘force’ the artists to be more creative/impactful?

- Manifestos perform interventions, they are public declarations that aim and claim to mark a difference between a given status quo and a desired outcome. As instruments of sociopolitical and cultural-critical critique, manifestos can be political as well as cultural; they span a wide range of discourses and practices. The seminar will explore the explosive power of manifestos, their historical occurrences, medial manifestations, logical mechanisms, and potential effects. We will examine various literary, artistic, and sociopolitical manifestos to develop a sense of the manifesto as a form and interrogate their respective strategies, historical frameworks, and the fields in which they intervene. We will meet on a weekly basis half way through the semester. The seminar will resume during a two-day workshop at the end of the summer term (11–12 July) when more groups will present work. All groups will be formed and topics chosen in the first weeks of the semester. Beware: you will also write your own manifesto!

Studying these texts will allow us to cover salient themes and various divergent objects of study, diverse theoretical approaches and methodological implications, as well as established and emerging areas of research. Throughout the summer term, we will trace two strands that have emerged with respect to the term “queer”: its reference to identifications and subjectivities not encompassed by heteronormative embodiments and trajectories (LGBTQIA+) as well as its reference to a critique of normative categorization more generally. The seminar begins in the first week of the semester.

- An ever-growing inequality between the economic classes, between the Global North and the Global South, a continued oppression of women and queer people, systemic racism, and climate injustice - our present times are complex, uncertain, and full of overwhelming challenges. In a deeply divided society, communication across ideological differences – even arriving at a consensus of our shared reality – becomes ever more difficult. The notion of a single, objective ‘Truth’ that exists outside of culture, outside of language, of course, cannot hold up. But how then do we relate to ‘reality’? And how do we communicate it to each other? In this course, we will try to understand how what we recognize as truthcomes about, what complexities this entails, and what power structures are at the core of this process. For this, we will look at a selection of some key theoretical paradigms in contemporary humanities scholarship, focusing on perspectives from postcolonialism, Black feminism, critical posthumanism and gender and queer studies. In our discussions, will take an intersectional approach and engage with these concepts through examples from North American contemporary cultural production. DISCLAIMER: Please be aware that this course will deal with racism, (hetero-)sexism, and systemic violence, and therefore might prove to be challenging. The reading load, both in terms of primary and secondary material, will be intense and will challenge students to familiarize themselves with a variety of complex critical theoretical concepts and frameworks that they will then be expected to apply to the primary texts.Course Requirements:•attendance and active participation •in-depth knowledge of the reading material •written reader responses engaging with the material as preparation for our sessions •final term paper Blockseminar:9.4. 6.DS (16:40-18:10); 27.5. 4.DS–6.DS (13:00-18:10); 28.5. 3.DS-5.DS (11:10-16:20); 25.6. 3.DS-6.DS (11:10-18:10); 2.7. 4.+6.DS (13:00-14:30 + 16:40-18:10)

- Beschreibung:
- Having its origins in European Enlightenment and Romanticism, the Gothic has played centrally in the formation of an American national literary tradition. As an unstable mode of expression, it is marked by generic hybridity that opens up spaces in which the basic premises of rationality are challenged by a playful interference of the imaginary, thus exemplifying what Freud saw as manifestations of “the uncanny,” the reappearance of the deeply familiar in seemingly unfamiliar – and therefore threatening – forms.In this course, we will first provide a theoretical platform for our critical discussions of selected 19th and 20th century fictions, ranging from texts written by Charles Brockden Brown and Edgar Allen Poe, over Henry James and Truman Capote to Tennessee Williams and Sylvia Plath. Performing inclusive analytical readings, we want to discuss the gothic mode as a possibility for the writers to engage in narrative experimentation, thus fostering aesthetic innovations that anticipate some of the devices of 20th and 21st century (post-)modern writing which will be part of a second course on Gothic traditions in winter semester 2024/25.Ü/

- Beschreibung:
- The proposed block seminar navigates the multifaceted landscape of perceptions surrounding homosexuality in the country. Delving into contrasting views that oscillate between deeming homosexuality a Western import and celebrating a purported glorious past, the seminar aims to strike a delicate balance. It begins by problematizing the terminology of Queer, favoring terms like 'same-sex love/desire' over identity-based labels, and explores how Queer Activism in India drew from mythology and history in the face of a prevalent homophobic discourse. The impact of British colonialism, especially through Section 377, is scrutinized, challenging notions of homosexuality as a foreign influence. Subsequent sessions journey through the Mughal period's literary and cultural practices, critically examining influences of Christian/Victorian morals on indigenous sexuality. The seminar then traverses literary and cinematic realms, analyzing works like "Lihaaf" and contributions by contemporary writers, while investigating the role of Indian cinema in shaping perceptions of homosexuality. It also sheds light on the significant influence of the Indian diaspora on contemporary queer culture, followed by discussions on the intersection of HIV-AIDS, Section 377, and media discourse in Post-Independence India. Finally, the seminar concludes with an exploration of the 'Out in Public' phase, focusing on the visibility and audibility of the Queer movement through queer film festivals and Pride Marches, notably the Kashish Mumbai International Queer Film Festival and Queer Azadi Mumbai Pride March. This comprehensive journey aims to provide participants with a nuanced understanding of the complexities surrounding Queer Culture in India.

- The topic of this seminar will be the forms, functions and politics of English as the world’s most important language, for better or worse. We will first look at recent changes in both American and British English and consider the evidence for American influence on British English – or is it the other way round? We will then tackle English as a link language in international contexts, such as Euro-English and English as a lingua franca (ELF). English as a contact language has also given rise to hybrid and grassroots Englishes which are spoken by more and more people around the globe and also feature on the internet. Finally, we will assess the impact of the spread of English from the perspective of language policies and linguistic human rights.

- Beschreibung:
- English is unusual among the European vernaculars in having developed a standard twice in its history: Old English already possessed a West Saxon standard, which was however cut short by the Norman Conquest in 1066. For centuries, the main languages of written record were Latin and French rather than English. When English re-emerged as a written language in the 14th and 15th century, the process of standardization was about to start afresh.This course will be devoted to tracing the origins, forms and functions of Standard English. We will consider the putative origins of the standard in the late medieval Chancery English and will then focus on the relevant developments in the Early Modern English period, the age of prescriptivism, elaboration and codification of the English language. Another important issue concerns the ideology of the standard: we will probe into the rise and the consequences of the standard ideology in present-day English.

- Beschreibung:
- If we agree that William Labov is the founding father of Sociolinguistics, then New York City is its cradle: the study of how specific linguistic features acquire social meaning and then come to be used to mark prestige within an urban speech community was pioneered in New York, but has been replicated and refined in many other contexts. Today, the communicative space in large cities is increasingly marked by multilingualism as a consequence of different aspects of globalization, giving rise to concerns beyond the original sociolinguistic focus – for example language(s) and identity, language policy and planning, sociolinguistics of globalization, or superdiversity, to name but a few. We will first (re-)acquaint ourselves with basic sociolinguistic notions by studying Labov’s original work in New York City. We will then move on to urban communicative spaces that have been in the linguistic limelight (but some more so than others) such as London, Singapore, and Dublin, but also to Berlin and others.

- Beschreibung:
- This survey lecture course provides an overview of US cultural history from the early European colonization of North America to recent moments in a transnationally situated United States. It heightens an understanding of the dynamics of American cultural history by way of focusing on key texts that have contributed to shaping an understanding of it. The lecture takes canonical and uncanonized texts as points of departure for an engagement with crucial periods, sites, people, and issues of American cultural history, highlighting how they generate knowledge about cultural differences and social inequalities, among other things, and how they shape various American counter/publics before and during the process of nation building. It also reflects on the medial and discursive forces that constitute these crucial American texts and shape their effects on their times and beyond.

- Beschreibung:
- The lecture “Gender and Diversity in (British) Cultural Studies” traces the mutual impact between (British) Cultural Studies and, for instance, queer theory, gender studies, critical race studies, ageing studies, and disability studies. It applies these theoretical frameworks to cultural practices, representations and the power structures they are embedded in, thus illustrating the complex and dynamic nature of gender and diversity in British culture. We will critically evaluate how normativities regarding gender and diversity are perpetuated and challenged. In doing so, we will, for instance, consider the influences of colonialism, postcolonialism and globalization on gender and diversity in Britain; we will examine interrelations between social categories and cultural production, representation and consumption, paying particular attention to the experiences of marginalised groups and their representation in and contributions to British (not least of all popular) cultural production.

- Beschreibung:
- There are many enduring myths about language(s) and language use in the popular imagination, for example:• Women talk more than men,• Speakers of a dialect are dumber than speakers of the standard language,• Our language is continually deteriorating, and this is mainly due to anglicisms/the youth/the internet,• A multilingual nation will always have language conflicts,• Some languages are better (more beautiful, more expressive, simpler, older, …) than others.This lecture is dedicated to looking behind such myths. We will discuss how language myths arise, how they are perpetuated, which interests they serve, and how we can come to more realistic ideas about language and language use.

- Dystopian fiction has frequently served as an early warning of the potential or even likely consequences of the collective trajectory on which a society has embarked. This seminar explores dystopian visions of totalitarianism in British literature, film, and television from Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World” (1932) and Katherine Burdekin’s “Swastika Night” (1937) to the television series “Black Mirror” (2011-present) and “Years and Years” (2019). We will begin with an introduction of theoretical frameworks for the analysis of fictional representations of the dynamics of power, control, and resistance within totalitarian systems and the impact of totalitarian regimes on individuals and society. Particular emphasis will be placed on the role of affect in rendering and keeping individuals complicit with totalitarian structures.

- Beschreibung:
- Processes of urbanisation have often been characterised by the consolidation of patriarchal heteronormative white Western middle-class relations of power. However, urban spaces have also posed challenges to and enabled reconfigurations of this order. Dominant, normative and complicit discourses of urban masculinities clash and interact with non-normative, marginalised, or resistant discourses of masculinity. This seminar brings together critical studies of masculinities on the one hand and urban space on the other hand and explores representations of masculinities and urban space, particularly their complex interrelations, in British film and television. The course aims to shed light on (re)negotiations of different hegemonic and non-hegemonic discourses of urban masculinities. In particular, we are going to explore masculinities and urban spaces as they intersect with sexuality, race, class, ability, age, nationality and similar identity categories.

- Beschreibung:
- David Lodge’s "Nice Work" has repeatedly been hailed as one of the funniest campus novelsever, exposing the working (or not) of universities and their professors, assistant teachersand students. However, the novel also explains major literary theoretical concepts to thereader: so why not refresh your knowledge of literary and cultural studies with the help ofan intelligent and hilarious novel? Hotly debated theoretical concepts such asdeconstructive feminism, realism, the 19th century industrial novel, stereotyping but alsonarrative techniques and their impact on the meaning of a novel are cleverly presentedand entertainingly put into practice by Lodge.Julian Barnes’ bestseller "England, England" operates in a similar way, confronting us with asatire on English- and Britishness which also discusses cultural and media studies. What,for example, are the main characteristics of Englishness, and how can we sell it to theworld? What is the difference between an original and a copy; or between everyday andvirtual reality? And what is the difference between a nation and an enterprise – if there isone at all? This seminar centres on how the comic aspects of "Nice Work" and "England,England" are linked with the more serious theoretical concepts from literary, cultural andmedia studies mentioned above.

- Beschreibung:
- For most of history the virtues women ought to follow centred around silence, obedience and chastity, meaning that women who wrote and published demonstrated by implication, as Anna Beer argues, unprecedented levels of disobedience and unchastity (2024: 72). Hence, it comes as no surprise that women who write have not only been labelled mad, undisciplined and dangerous but have also been nearly absent from the literary history of Britain. While this seminar will not offer a comprehensive history of British female authors, it will provide a closer look at female contemporaries of Chaucer, Shakespeare and Milton and trace the challenges women faced in writing and publishing their work from the fourteenth century onwards. Delving into the lives and works of five writers – Margery Kempe, Aemilia Lanyer, Anne Bradstreet, Aphra Behn, and Jane Austen – and through a close-reading of selected texts, we will trace in how far (or if at all) their works challenge gendered beliefs which have underpinned social institutions. We will also explore the construction of female authors throughout literary history, from their demonization to the continuous questioning of their mental state, and how 'writing back' has sought to deconstruct these notions (and has simultaneously helped to uphold them).

- “And gladly wold he lerne [...]”, one of the famous quotes from Geoffrey Chaucer’sCanterbury Tales, which is probably the most famous piece of literature from the period of Middle English, will serve us as a guiding principle to delve into the respective period of the development of the English language, a period of profound changes and great diversity on all linguistic levels. We will link our survey of linguistic features to extra-linguistic matters, such as historical events and cultural phenomena. We will work with excerpts from literature to encounter different genres and use them as sources for linguistic analyses. Eventually, the course is supposed to enable the participants to gain access to any Middle English text by using reference materials.By the end of the class participants will have gained an overview of the main issues ofMiddle English studies.Participants of this seminar must have passed the Introduction to Linguistics (either synchronic or diachronic).

- Beschreibung:
- What is discourse? While in everyday language it is mostly considered a synonym for dialogue, the linguistic approach towards the term is more varied and complex. In this course, we will try to define this extremely broad concept and use it by applying discourse linguistic models in order to show and understand the relation between language, knowledge, and social structures. By doing so we will go beyond analysing mere words, sentences or even single texts for none of these exist in isolation but within a semantic sphere that is characterised by intertextual links as well as agents that take part in establishing social discourses. Still, not only do the participants influence and shape the many discourses of our daily lives, but the agents themselves are defined and determined by these verbal as well as non-verbal structures.We will, using models, theory and concrete examples, try to unravel this multi-directional and multi-modal web of social interaction to find the answer to the initially posed question of what discourse is.

- In this seminar, we will focus on the wide range of languages and varieties of English in North America. North America is a continent of linguistic diversity, even if English often is the first language that might come to mind. It is precisely this linguistic diversity that we will examine in detail in this seminar: Spread over various dates, we will look at which languages came to North America and when, how/if they may have had and still have an influence on the English language. And which languages are actually still spoken in North America today? The English language itself in North America will not be neglected either, as its variation will also be a central topic of this seminar.

- Beschreibung:
- Since the post-World-War-Two-era, American writers with African American, Native American, Asian American, Latino American, and, in more recent time, also Arab American cultural histories have increasingly inspired the traditions of American short story writing. Although presenting an enormous stylistic and thematic variety, their narratives share some basic characteristics, among others a memory of oppression and public "invisibility" as the "Other" and a strong oral tradition of storytelling that fuses their rich imaginative powers, their mythic traditions and magical symbolisms. Reading selected short stories written against the background of highly diverse ethnic cultural contexts and discussing them in interaction with basic discourses of postcolonial theory, students are expected to experience the great variety of literary voices and the multiplicity of themes explored in late 20th century US-American short fiction.

- Beschreibung:
- From foreboding cliffs, lonely lighthouses, to choppy seas, the coasts of the British Isles have always stoked the imaginations of writers, lending not only literary significance to these spaces between land and sea but sparking a wealth of tales about inexplicable events, adventures and encounters with the unknown on what seems to be familiar shores. In this seminar we will explore the literary and cultural significance of these archetypical liminal landscapes, that is the coast line(s) and the sea(s) surrounding the British Isles. We will take a look at the social, cultural and political functions of these spaces and will examine ways in which 'uncanny' or 'weird' stories by authors such as Bram Stoker, Algernon Blackwood or Elenor Smith, negotiate issues such as liminality, nationality, gender, age, ethnicity and sexuality.

- This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the differences and similarities between modernism and postmodernism. It explores historical, political, cultural and social issues in the following novels (and their adaptations): James Joyce’s "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" (1916), Virginia Woolf’s "To the Lighthouse" (1927) and Jean Rhys’s "Wide Sargasso Sea" (1966). These authors are among the most acclaimed authors of the 20th century and remain popular among readers, critics, and adaptors alike. We are going to analyze these three key novels of the twentieth century while considering the context in which they have been written. Along with the context, the modernist and postmodernist features will be explored.

- Bonnie Tyler needs a hero; the British Empire needs several – at least according to Alan Moore, one of the most renowned comic book authors of our time. This seminar provides students with an introduction to sequential art, and specifically examines Moore’s reinvention of superhero fiction via a close reading of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. We will discuss how different forms of otherness and marginality are introduced to the normative hero trope through unconventional ‘heroes’ who blur the lines between good and evil, hero and villain, monster and (hu)man. Besides investigating how Moore puts well-established binaries to the test, we will consider the graphic novel in regard to its intertextual potential, drawing on some of the most iconic examples of 19th-century fantastic literature, such as Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, and the scientific romances of H.G. Wells.

- “[T]here is very little to say about writing short stories unless you are a professional explainer. If you can do it, you don’t have to explain it. If you can not do it, no explanation will ever help”Ernest HemingwayThe epigraph—originally written in 1959 and thought as a preface to Hemingway’s short story collections for classroom use—never made it to publication as the idea of the book was dropped. However, this quote from one of the most acclaimed and also controversial figures in American literature shows that being a great author of short stories does not necessarily equate to having an encompassing understanding of the form. The literary prosaic form distinguishes itself through its length from another more ‘respected’ writing endeavor, the novel. Short stories may seem self- explanatory but among other short forms, they are much more complex than it may seem. Whether it is short stories, short films, music videos, performance art, or poetry, short works of art come in various shapes and sizes in the US and they have a tremendous impact in US culture. In this Übung/Proseminar, we will delve into diverse material, which includes Hemingway’s short stories where what has been said is much less than what has not been said, as the ‘famous’ iceberg theory goes. We will look into suburban middle-class America with Raymond Carver. We will also check out one of Indigenous author Lousie Erdrich’s (Turtle Mountain Band Chippewa) trickster characters. Moreover, we will be watching short films (film-noir, horror), performance art from Indigenous artists, and contemporary queer poetry by acclaimed poet Ocean Vuong. The purpose of this class is to familiarize ourselves with short forms from different times and different voices in American society. We will try to answer questions such as: How does the form affect the content? What are the ways that limited space and time ‘force’ the artists to be more creative/impactful?

- This course will be an exercise in doing research for, conceptualizing, and presenting a research project on Americans abroad. In case studies, you will investigate well-known Americans who have spent decisive moments in their lives in different places abroad, with a focus on (but not limited to) Europe. The task will be to identify texts (their own or other peoples’; fact-based of fictional; plurimedial) and take these as meaning-making anchor points to explore what drove Americans abroad in what historical period, how these persons shaped the places they went and how these places shaped them. You will also identify and explore themes and concepts that are relevant to a particular case, among them voluntary mobility, involuntary migration, expatriation, displacement, home, diaspora, belonging, individual agency, social networks and activism, and Americanization. The seminar begins in the first week of the semester.

- Beschreibung:
- Reality TV has fundamentally altered the landscape of programming schedules, introduced satellite and digital channels under specific brandings, generated an autonomous celebrity sector, and transformed viewers into discerning interpreters, and potentially active contributors, to the intricacies of television production (Kavka 2). Thus, it has hybridised the fictional and the factual while blurring the boundaries of public and private space. The lives of “ordinary people” (Barron 4) have leaked into the living rooms and have been consumed by many viewers. However, the alleged ‘reality’ of the ordinary people “becomes an opportunity for people to observe others [that are] not like themselves, which often leads to reinforcement of stereotypes” (Ward 4). In this seminar, we will problematise the aspect of ‘reality’ and unravel how reality TV contributes to the construction of everyday reality, often reinforcing cultural ideologies. In doing so, we will analyse the role of ordinary celebrities in blurring the boundaries of the public and the private, delving into spatial theories (i.e, Goffman’s dramaturgical perspective). We will also engage in cultural theories pertaining to discipline and surveillance, drawing extensively upon Michel Foucault’s works to conceptualise reality TV as a disciplinary apparatus. Therefore, participants are expected to watch the primary sources critically in light of the theoretical approaches we will discuss together. The ‘Prüfungsleistung’ and the required reading will be announced in the first session.

- Beschreibung:
- In 2013, Susan Bordo published a controversial monograph entitled “The Creation of Anne Boleyn”, in which she, for instance, criticises Booker Prize Winner Hilary Mantel for recycling “old stereotypes” in her depiction of Anne Boleyn, or accuses historian David Starkey of sexism. Bordo, more generally, contests the widespread representation of Anne Boleyn as a “scheming seductress” or “ruthless predator”. Taking our cue from Bordo, in this seminar, we will critically examine representations of Anne Boleyn across time, ranging from William Shakespeare’s collaborative history play “Henry VIII” to contemporary film and television, such as the Showtime historical fiction television series “The Tudors.” Employing comparative analysis, we will explore how Anne Boleyn’s image has transformed over time, reflecting shifting cultural anxieties, political agendas, and interpretive frameworks.

- Beschreibung:
- We recommend that students take this Listening and Speaking course before their period of residence in an English-speaking country. This course aims firstly to familiarise students with naturally spoken English and a variety of accents, thereby improving listening comprehension skills; secondly we aim to improve students' own general speaking skills by encouraging students to adopt aspects of what they hear from the listening exercises into their own speaking. Spoken language will be analysed in detail, especially those aspects which hinder comprehension e.g. contractions, linking, etc. The skills and knowledge practised and gained in Year 1 Pronunciation and Intonation will be further developed and refined. Students will also practise the rhetorical skills necessary in giving presentations and short talks. This part of the course should help students give better papers in other seminars. We shall also deal with grammatical problems as they occur. There will be two main tests: (1) a test in listening skills in the form of a written exam, and (2) a speaking test at the end of the semester. Materials: Materials should be purchased at EMF Bürotechnik, Zellescher Weg 21, 01217 Dresden. Please bring these materials to the first meeting Prerequisites: 1: the Entry Test must have been passed. 2: the Pronunciation and Intonation course must already have been completed.

In the course, students work on common problematic lexical areas, extract vocabulary (words, word groups) from texts, establish personal vocabulary lists, practise using dictionaries and thesauri, work out word fields, identify and use word formation processes, practise variations in range and variety of written and oral expression, and experiment with different learning techniques. Materials: The materials should be purchased at EMF Bürotechnik, Zellescher Weg 21, 01217 Dresden.

- SLK-SEGY-ENG-SP1 [Language Competences – Pronunciation/Intonation/Grammar]
- Beschreibung:
- This course deals with basic and advanced grammar concepts and targets the particular problems foreigners in general and Germans in particular commonly have with English grammar. This course builds on the knowledge of grammar gained at school, but whereas “Abitur” classes often concentrate on communicative skills, this university course will focus on accuracy and knowledge of grammatical structures. Although students have encountered and practised most aspects of English grammar at school, many do not control them well. Using a contrastive approach, this class will address the English verb system, the peculiarities of nouns and their determiners, part-of-speech analysis, parsing, gerunds vs. infinitives, collocations, phrasal verbs, types of subordinate clauses, modal verbs, word order (inversion etc), and adjective vs. adverb problems. Exercises will include: gap-filling, transformations, error correction, translation and sentence analysis. Since the philosophy of the class is partly based on a contrastive approach, translation from German into English will also play a role. Reference books will be recommended in class. Materials: The materials should be purchased at EMF Bürotechnik, Zellescher Weg 21, 01217 Dresden. Please bring these materials to the first meeting Prerequisites: the Entry Test must have been passed.

- Beschreibung:
- This ‘kombinierte Sprachprüfung’ concentrates on pronunciation and intonation skills but also involves competence in grammar. There are two exam sections, an oral exam, which tests spoken language skills, and a written exam, which tests: (1) phonetic transcription (2) the usage of verbs and tenses, as well the explanation of rules using grammatical terminology Students have to choose between British and American English but the course content is very similar. Regarding pronunciation and intonation, we aim to identify the students’ problem areas, tune in students’ ears to pronunciation style and speech rhythm (stress patterns, weak forms, linking), provide practical information on articulatory phonetics and (some) phonology of English, practise interpreting and writing passages in phonetic script, identify characteristic segmental and suprasegmental features in given (oral and/or written) passages, establish islands of perfection (speaking complex passages in near-perfect form) as stepping-stones to progress and improvement. The skills and knowledge gained here will be developed in the year two Listening and Speaking course. Parts of the seminars will be dedicated to practising and describing grammatical phenomena concerning verbs and tenses. Materials: 1) “The England Pronunciation Course” book and 2 CDs (€18) used in British English classes Book (and CDs) will be sold in class - please bring €18 to the first meeting 2) Other course materials: American English: Materials should be purchased at EMF Bürotechnik, Zellescher Weg 21, 01217 Dresden.

- Beschreibung:
- The proposed block seminar navigates the multifaceted landscape of perceptions surrounding homosexuality in the country. Delving into contrasting views that oscillate between deeming homosexuality a Western import and celebrating a purported glorious past, the seminar aims to strike a delicate balance. It begins by problematizing the terminology of Queer, favoring terms like 'same-sex love/desire' over identity-based labels, and explores how Queer Activism in India drew from mythology and history in the face of a prevalent homophobic discourse. The impact of British colonialism, especially through Section 377, is scrutinized, challenging notions of homosexuality as a foreign influence. Subsequent sessions journey through the Mughal period's literary and cultural practices, critically examining influences of Christian/Victorian morals on indigenous sexuality. The seminar then traverses literary and cinematic realms, analyzing works like "Lihaaf" and contributions by contemporary writers, while investigating the role of Indian cinema in shaping perceptions of homosexuality. It also sheds light on the significant influence of the Indian diaspora on contemporary queer culture, followed by discussions on the intersection of HIV-AIDS, Section 377, and media discourse in Post-Independence India. Finally, the seminar concludes with an exploration of the 'Out in Public' phase, focusing on the visibility and audibility of the Queer movement through queer film festivals and Pride Marches, notably the Kashish Mumbai International Queer Film Festival and Queer Azadi Mumbai Pride March. This comprehensive journey aims to provide participants with a nuanced understanding of the complexities surrounding Queer Culture in India.

- Beschreibung:
- The topic of this seminar will be the forms, functions and politics of English as the world’s most important language, for better or worse. We will first look at recent changes in both American and British English and consider the evidence for American influence on British English – or is it the other way round? We will then tackle English as a link language in international contexts, such as Euro-English and English as a lingua franca (ELF). English as a contact language has also given rise to hybrid and grassroots Englishes which are spoken by more and more people around the globe and also feature on the internet. Finally, we will assess the impact of the spread of English from the perspective of language policies and linguistic human rights.

- Beschreibung:
- English is unusual among the European vernaculars in having developed a standard twice in its history: Old English already possessed a West Saxon standard, which was however cut short by the Norman Conquest in 1066. For centuries, the main languages of written record were Latin and French rather than English. When English re-emerged as a written language in the 14th and 15th century, the process of standardization was about to start afresh.This course will be devoted to tracing the origins, forms and functions of Standard English. We will consider the putative origins of the standard in the late medieval Chancery English and will then focus on the relevant developments in the Early Modern English period, the age of prescriptivism, elaboration and codification of the English language. Another important issue concerns the ideology of the standard: we will probe into the rise and the consequences of the standard ideology in present-day English.

- Beschreibung:
- If we agree that William Labov is the founding father of Sociolinguistics, then New York City is its cradle: the study of how specific linguistic features acquire social meaning and then come to be used to mark prestige within an urban speech community was pioneered in New York, but has been replicated and refined in many other contexts. Today, the communicative space in large cities is increasingly marked by multilingualism as a consequence of different aspects of globalization, giving rise to concerns beyond the original sociolinguistic focus – for example language(s) and identity, language policy and planning, sociolinguistics of globalization, or superdiversity, to name but a few. We will first (re-)acquaint ourselves with basic sociolinguistic notions by studying Labov’s original work in New York City. We will then move on to urban communicative spaces that have been in the linguistic limelight (but some more so than others) such as London, Singapore, and Dublin, but also to Berlin and others.

- Beschreibung:
- Manifestos perform interventions, they are public declarations that aim and claim to mark a difference between a given status quo and a desired outcome. As instruments of sociopolitical and cultural-critical critique, manifestos can be political as well as cultural; they span a wide range of discourses and practices. The seminar will explore the explosive power of manifestos, their historical occurrences, medial manifestations, logical mechanisms, and potential effects. We will examine various literary, artistic, and sociopolitical manifestos to develop a sense of the manifesto as a form and interrogate their respective strategies, historical frameworks, and the fields in which they intervene. We will meet on a weekly basis half way through the semester. The seminar will resume during a two-day workshop at the end of the summer term (11–12 July) when more groups will present work. All groups will be formed and topics chosen in the first weeks of the semester. Beware: you will also write your own manifesto!

- Beschreibung:
- This seminar reviews the history of queer theory and its institutionalization. We will read central texts in queer theory to reconstruct a field that has become institutionalized as Queer Studies. Studying these texts will allow us to cover salient themes and various divergent objects of study, diverse theoretical approaches and methodological implications, as well as established and emerging areas of research. Throughout the summer term, we will trace two strands that have emerged with respect to the term “queer”: its reference to identifications and subjectivities not encompassed by heteronormative embodiments and trajectories (LGBTQIA+) as well as its reference to a critique of normative categorization more generally. The seminar begins in the first week of the semester.

- Beschreibung:
- An ever-growing inequality between the economic classes, between the Global North and the Global South, a continued oppression of women and queer people, systemic racism, and climate injustice - our present times are complex, uncertain, and full of overwhelming challenges. In a deeply divided society, communication across ideological differences – even arriving at a consensus of our shared reality – becomes ever more difficult. The notion of a single, objective ‘Truth’ that exists outside of culture, outside of language, of course, cannot hold up. But how then do we relate to ‘reality’? And how do we communicate it to each other? In this course, we will try to understand how what we recognize as truthcomes about, what complexities this entails, and what power structures are at the core of this process. For this, we will look at a selection of some key theoretical paradigms in contemporary humanities scholarship, focusing on perspectives from postcolonialism, Black feminism, critical posthumanism and gender and queer studies. In our discussions, will take an intersectional approach and engage with these concepts through examples from North American contemporary cultural production. DISCLAIMER: Please be aware that this course will deal with racism, (hetero-)sexism, and systemic violence, and therefore might prove to be challenging. The reading load, both in terms of primary and secondary material, will be intense and will challenge students to familiarize themselves with a variety of complex critical theoretical concepts and frameworks that they will then be expected to apply to the primary texts.Course Requirements:•attendance and active participation •in-depth knowledge of the reading material •written reader responses engaging with the material as preparation for our sessions •final term paper Blockseminar:9.4. 6.DS (16:40-18:10); 27.5. 4.DS–6.DS (13:00-18:10); 28.5. 3.DS-5.DS (11:10-16:20); 25.6. 3.DS-6.DS (11:10-18:10); 2.7. 4.+6.DS (13:00-14:30 + 16:40-18:10)

- Beschreibung:
- Having its origins in European Enlightenment and Romanticism, the Gothic has played centrally in the formation of an American national literary tradition. As an unstable mode of expression, it is marked by generic hybridity that opens up spaces in which the basic premises of rationality are challenged by a playful interference of the imaginary, thus exemplifying what Freud saw as manifestations of “the uncanny,” the reappearance of the deeply familiar in seemingly unfamiliar – and therefore threatening – forms.In this course, we will first provide a theoretical platform for our critical discussions of selected 19th and 20th century fictions, ranging from texts written by Charles Brockden Brown and Edgar Allen Poe, over Henry James and Truman Capote to Tennessee Williams and Sylvia Plath. Performing inclusive analytical readings, we want to discuss the gothic mode as a possibility for the writers to engage in narrative experimentation, thus fostering aesthetic innovations that anticipate some of the devices of 20th and 21st century (post-)modern writing which will be part of a second course on Gothic traditions in winter semester 2024/25.Ü/

- Beschreibung:
- Dystopian fiction has frequently served as an early warning of the potential or even likely consequences of the collective trajectory on which a society has embarked. This seminar explores dystopian visions of totalitarianism in British literature, film, and television from Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World” (1932) and Katherine Burdekin’s “Swastika Night” (1937) to the television series “Black Mirror” (2011-present) and “Years and Years” (2019). We will begin with an introduction of theoretical frameworks for the analysis of fictional representations of the dynamics of power, control, and resistance within totalitarian systems and the impact of totalitarian regimes on individuals and society. Particular emphasis will be placed on the role of affect in rendering and keeping individuals complicit with totalitarian structures.

- Beschreibung:
- Processes of urbanisation have often been characterised by the consolidation of patriarchal heteronormative white Western middle-class relations of power. However, urban spaces have also posed challenges to and enabled reconfigurations of this order. Dominant, normative and complicit discourses of urban masculinities clash and interact with non-normative, marginalised, or resistant discourses of masculinity. This seminar brings together critical studies of masculinities on the one hand and urban space on the other hand and explores representations of masculinities and urban space, particularly their complex interrelations, in British film and television. The course aims to shed light on (re)negotiations of different hegemonic and non-hegemonic discourses of urban masculinities. In particular, we are going to explore masculinities and urban spaces as they intersect with sexuality, race, class, ability, age, nationality and similar identity categories.

- Beschreibung:
- David Lodge’s "Nice Work" has repeatedly been hailed as one of the funniest campus novelsever, exposing the working (or not) of universities and their professors, assistant teachersand students. However, the novel also explains major literary theoretical concepts to thereader: so why not refresh your knowledge of literary and cultural studies with the help ofan intelligent and hilarious novel? Hotly debated theoretical concepts such asdeconstructive feminism, realism, the 19th century industrial novel, stereotyping but alsonarrative techniques and their impact on the meaning of a novel are cleverly presentedand entertainingly put into practice by Lodge.Julian Barnes’ bestseller "England, England" operates in a similar way, confronting us with asatire on English- and Britishness which also discusses cultural and media studies. What,for example, are the main characteristics of Englishness, and how can we sell it to theworld? What is the difference between an original and a copy; or between everyday andvirtual reality? And what is the difference between a nation and an enterprise – if there isone at all? This seminar centres on how the comic aspects of "Nice Work" and "England,England" are linked with the more serious theoretical concepts from literary, cultural andmedia studies mentioned above.

- Beschreibung:
- For most of history the virtues women ought to follow centred around silence, obedience and chastity, meaning that women who wrote and published demonstrated by implication, as Anna Beer argues, unprecedented levels of disobedience and unchastity (2024: 72). Hence, it comes as no surprise that women who write have not only been labelled mad, undisciplined and dangerous but have also been nearly absent from the literary history of Britain. While this seminar will not offer a comprehensive history of British female authors, it will provide a closer look at female contemporaries of Chaucer, Shakespeare and Milton and trace the challenges women faced in writing and publishing their work from the fourteenth century onwards. Delving into the lives and works of five writers – Margery Kempe, Aemilia Lanyer, Anne Bradstreet, Aphra Behn, and Jane Austen – and through a close-reading of selected texts, we will trace in how far (or if at all) their works challenge gendered beliefs which have underpinned social institutions. We will also explore the construction of female authors throughout literary history, from their demonization to the continuous questioning of their mental state, and how 'writing back' has sought to deconstruct these notions (and has simultaneously helped to uphold them).
