- Inhalt:
- A wave of feminist sentiment is mounting among the Muslim women who are seeking to reclaim Islam and the Quran for themselves. Islamic feminism demands equal rights for Muslim women in social, economic and political spheres both in the Islamic and non-Islamic worlds. Islamic feminist writers emphasize on religious spirituality and gender equality based on the Islamic religious scripts: the Quran and Hadith. They have taken up the task of reinventing feminism from Islamic perspective and are trying to emphasize on the mutual interest of narrowing the distance between Islam and Western feminism.
There is a misconception among many Muslim women that they must choose between being religious as well as submissive to men and being rebellious distancing themselves from their religion. Islamic feminist writers are firstly challenging this misconception and advocating that a Muslim woman can be religious and at the same time can enjoy equal rights as men in both Islamic and non-Islamic societies. Secondly, they are confronting the stereotypes of Muslim women especially in non-Islamic cultures where the Muslim women are often seen as the oppressed who must be liberated from their cultural and religious subjugation.
Leila Aboulela in her books shows a realistic picture of the lives of Muslim women and establishes the evidence of why Muslim women choose Islam over Western freedom. Aboulela speaks for all the Muslim women, openly stating that her religious identity surpasses her national and geographic loyalties with her religion offering more stability than any other affiliation. In The Translator and Bird Summons she places Islamic faith at the center of her narration emphasizing the nonpolitical aspects of the religion. Her characters are not submissive and oppressed but rather confident and in control of their lives.
In this course we will critically analyze The Translator and Bird Summons and discuss how Islamic feminism is contributing to change the stereotypes of Muslim women.

We will discuss general formal aspects and content related criteria of an academic paper, such as possible topics, structure, suitable theoretical approaches.

Finally, we will discuss the different types of source material that are suitable for the list of references of your paper. Students have the chance to present a provisional outline in a closed discussion forum, where they will receive feedback from fellow students and the instructor.
This course is also addressed at students in the Vertiefungsmodul who are preparing or working at a BA-thesis in American Literature or Culture. Therefore, this course provides the guidance sessions for the BA thesis (Betreuungsübung) for students in the BA programs who write their thesis in literary or cultural studies.

BA-candidates will present parts of their final paper, offering it for discussion and feedback. If you are planning to attend this class, make sure that the instructor will also be your thesis advisor.

- Inhalt:
- The American West has always been associated with endless possibilities to start a new life with promise, hope and wealth. As part of the Western myth, California is often depicted as an exotic tropical paradise, the Garden of Eden or the end point of Manifest Destiny, in short, as the epitome of the American Dream. Numerous people have answered the call of the Golden State to build a better life in the West. Many of them dream of becoming movie stars, singers or high-tech entrepreneurs.
This seminar sets out to explain the California myth from its origin until today. We are going to analyze a variety of novels, poems, movies and songs as well as important biographies and historical events.

- Inhalt:
- While American Cultural Studies has always paid tribute to the importance of religion in the US, the question of religion has often been a blind spot in British Cultural Studies. In recent years, however, the discipline has increasingly acknowledged that religion has been a central part of people’s identities in England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. This lecture provides a survey of the major tendencies and events of the religious history of Britain from the Early Modern Period to the present. Rather than dwelling on Biblical and theological issues, the lecture will show the relevance of important disputes for the formation of allegiances, solidarity and hostility.
