Kolloqium:
The Extra Slot
(Im
zweiwöchigen Rhythmus, beginnt in der zweiten Vorlesungswoche)
(Offenes
Oberseminar ohne Credit Points und Modulzuordnung.)
The Extra Slot provides an
informal and friendly space for discussing texts and images (and occasionally
also music) as well as questions and issues you find particularly interesting /
fascinating / baffling. It is also a forum for discussing projects – yours as
well as mine (ranging from seminar papers to BA/MA theses, to job and scholarship
applications and all sorts of writing projects, etc.). We hope to do one more
little trips, maybe to see an exhibition, watch a play or attend other events
associated with British literature and culture in and around Essen. This
informal colloquium is for all those whose interests, enthusiasms and ambitions
go beyond what they are told they have to do. There will be no credit points –
however, there probably will be nibbles. This is the only one of my courses
where no preparation is required.
There will be a Moodle
room. You will receive the Moodle password and other essential information via
e-mail.
The Extra Slot is primarily
aimed at students who have taken (or who are taking) one or several of my
seminars/lectures. However, it is very much an open forum. Newcomers are most
welcome. If you would like to join the Extra Slot, please send an e-mail to
chandni.rampersad@uni-due.de who will put you on our mailing list.
