- Inhalt
- According to the most recent UNHCR report, more than 84 million forcibly displaced people are currently in the world. Given the most recent refugee crisis, it is more important to listen to and understand what obstacles refugees face: from leaving home to arriving in a new place to finding/creating a new home, and all the hostility they face in their pursuit of safety and refuge. Their journey to protection and safety is far from over. Therefore, refugee voices and narratives are vital to understanding the plight of refugees.
In this course, we will be reading a selective of refugee narratives (poems, short stories, and novels) and watching a selection of documentaries on refugees. This class will introduce theoretical texts on the documentary form for the documentary part. We will discuss the documentary’s discursive relation to “truth” and its various methods of “realism”. In the narrative part, we will discuss the refugee narrative as a genre and how the refugees’ plight is represented in the selected poems, short stories, and novels.
