- Inhalt:
- In this seminar we will study trends and schools in literary theory since the 1950s.
We may discuss key texts by thinkers identified with formalism and structuralism, deconstruction and poststructuralism, gender studies and queer theory, psychoanalytical criticism, (Neo)Marxism and Cultural Materialism, New Historicism, postcolonial criticism and reader-response theory.
Depending on the participants personal interests, we may also consider more recent approaches like ecocriticism and possible-worlds theory or less "canonized" theories (e.g. systems theory).
The course is intended to assist students in both finding own approaches towards primary texts and in identifying mind-sets and methods applied in the secondary sources they read in their other seminars: "What theory demonstrates [...] is that there is no position free of theory, not even the one called common sense" (V. B. Leitch).

- Voraussetzungen / Organisatorisches:
- This course is an extracurricular course and does not offer any ECTS credits.
Anybody interested in reading and discussing Shakespeare is very welcome, regardless of their course of studies.
You need not register for this course, just come along in the first session and bring a copy of the plays.
- Inhalt:
- William Shakespeare's works are well know, or should be well known, to all students of English literature. However, when reading Shakespeare some people struggle to fully appreciate his language or his brilliantly designed characters.
This course aims at all of those students who would like to enjoy Shakespeare's works together with other students. Thus, we will not only read two pieces by Shakespeare, one comedy and one tragedy, we will also provide a platform for discussion or even stage a few scenes to further our understanding of what is going on.
If you want to join us, you need not have any previous knowledge, only bring a copy of the play and comfortable shoes.
- Empfohlene Literatur:
- William Shakespeare. Richard III.
William Shakespeare. Two Gentlemen of Verona.
