Liebe Studierende,

in diesem Moodle-Kursraum finden Sie Video-Vorlesungen und Vorlesungsunterlagen zum Selbststudium, die alle klausurrelevant sind. Die neugeschaffene Lernplattform und die zur Verfügung gestellten weiterführenden Informationen sollen Sie beim Selbststudium unterstützen und Ihnen Einblicke in die Arbeit der Internen Revision gewähren.

Bei Fragen wenden Sie sich bitte an den verantwortlichen Mitarbeiter Martin Wagener (martin.wagener@uni-due.de).

In diesem Moodle-Kurs können unter anderem offene Fragen diskutiert werden, die aufgrund der hohen Teilnehmerzahl in der Vorlesung möglicherweise nicht angemessen geklärt werden konnten.

Welcome to our Moodle course for Introduction to British Culture. On this site, you can find resources to help you understand the topics in each session and prepare for the Studienleistung. We will cover a range of topics including British history, politics, music etc., and also try to understand Brexit and what it means for all of us going forward.

This Moodle is for participants of the Introduction to Linguistics I, Grundkurs Group 2. We will use it as a virtual classroom for synchronous and asynchronous exchange: to meet up, work on the worksheets, and generally discuss any questions and ideas that might come up.

For materials from the Introduction to Linguistics I lecture, please visit the lecture Moodle: https://moodle.uni-due.de/course/view.php?id=13920, pw 'Introduction'.

I always appreciate constructive feedback. Feel free to send me a message here or via e-mail.

Talk soon!

This Moodle is for participants of the Introduction to Linguistics I tutorial running this summer term 2024. It will stay open until the end of term.

We will use Moodle as an additional space to accompany our classroom meetings, for which you need to come prepared:

Our course is based on talking to each other and learning together. Before you join a meeting, revise the Intro I lecture materials, check the coursebook chapters mentioned in the lecture, do the worksheet and quizzes. Ideally, note down any questions you have and bring them to class, too.

For materials from the Intro I lecture, go to the lecture Moodle: https://moodle.uni-due.de/course/view.php?id=13920.

You can track your own activity in this Moodle. Tasks are marked as completed either automatically or manually by the participants.

 Feedback is greatly appreciated!

Lecture:

Introduction to Literary Studies

(Im zweiwöchigen Rhythmus, beginnt in der ersten Vorlesungswoche)

Lit1

A reader will be made available to you for free via Moodle. You will need to read and prepare material in the reader for each session.

You will also need to buy and read two books. You will need them from the first week of the semester, so buy them now:

• Michael Meyer, English and American Literatures. 4. Auflage. UTB Basics. ISBN-13: 978-3825-235505.
• Christoph Heyl, Kleine Englische Literaturgeschichte. J.B. Metzler. ISBN-13: 978-3476045096.

It is absolutely necessary to buy the two books and to download the reader. It is also absolutely necessary to attend both the lecture course (Vorlesung) and one of the Grundkurse.

As all other obligatory introductions in the field of Anglophone Studies, the Introduction to Literary Studies is of elementary importance to all new students. It will be your first and crucial step towards becoming an expert reader of literature written in English. The more you know, the more you see; the more you see, the more you can try to understand, which makes the whole process of reading even more exciting and rewarding. This course will therefore help you to see more and to get to grips with all sorts of texts by covering topics such as:

-       What is literature? Why study literature?

-       The major genres of literature (poetry, drama, narrative fiction).

-       Some key developments in the history of these genres in English literature and their cultural contexts.

-       Literary theory and critical approaches, i.e. how to do things with texts in more than one way.

-       How to use essential digital resources.

-       How to write a seminar paper.

-       What to do when you get stuck and you absolutely don’t know what to do … and much more besides.

Yes, this is a Pflichtveranstaltung, but it is also very much about enjoying literature.

The Introduction to Literary Studies will be extremely useful for all further courses in literary as well as cultural studies you will take while at university. It will be your first step towards enjoying literature even more than you do already, and also towards writing successful seminar papers, BA and MA theses.

The Introduction to Literary Studies consists of two elements: A lecture course (Vorlesung) and seminar-type courses (Grundkurse). The lecture and the Grundkurs format alternate on a weekly basis throughout the semester. They belong together, it is essential to attend both. The lecture is taught by Prof. Heyl, the Grundkurse by members of the Introduction team.

You must sign up for one of the Grundkurse on LSF and join the Moodle course for the lecture (the Moodle course is called Vorlesung Introduction to Literary Studies). The Moodle course is called Vorlesung Introduction to Literary Studies WS 23-24. The Moodle password is IntroLiteraryStudiesWS24.

You may receive further information via e-mail. Please make sure to use and check your official university e-mail addresses at all times. This is absolutely essential. Do not use any other addresses for university business.

Bemerkung:

Die Einführungsveranstaltung in die Literaturwissenschaft besteht aus der Vorlesung “Introduction to Literary Studies” und einem sie ergänzenden Seminar („Grundkurs“), in dem das in der Vorlesung behandelte Fachwissen an exemplarischen Beispielen veranschaulicht und vertieft wird. Vorlesung und Seminar wechseln das gesamte Semester hindurch wochenweise ab (in einer Woche gehen Sie also in die Vorlesung, in der nächsten ins Seminar, in der nächsten wieder in die Vorlesung usw.). Das Seminar ist der ergänzende Pflicht-Grundkurs zur Vorlesung „Introduction to Literary Studies“, Vorlesung und Seminar bilden also eine Einheit.

Besonderer Hinweis:

Eine Anmeldung zur Vorlesung im LSF ist nicht nötig, hier reicht die Anmeldung in dem Moodle-Kurs zur Vorlesung; für die Grundkurse ist eine Anmeldung aber verpflichtend!
