- Inhalt
- This lecture provides an overview of US-American literary history from the 1870s until today, highlighting characteristic features of realism, naturalism, modernism, and post-modernism, as well as key trends in 21st-century literary production. For each of these periods, the thematic, formal, and stylistic elements of a wide range of novels, stories, poems, plays, and essays will be discussed in connection with broader cultural and political developments.
Several questions that revolve around the tensions between coherence and difference will guide our explorations. For one, we will investigate how from the end of the Civil War until today, various groups of American writers have engaged, and frequently exploded, the possibilities of specific literary genres to re-imagine the world. This also means that we will discuss the ways in which changing notions of gender, sexuality, race, class, religion, and region have intersected with the development of American literature as a pluriform, multi-voiced field of expression. Finally, we will interrogate the significance of core thematic and conceptual concerns that have been identified in American literature over the years, including processes of modernization and the ideal of democratization, a sense of national self in relation to other cultures, and the challenges of living with the natural environment without destroying it.
