Vorlesung Introduction to Literary Studies

-       What is literature? Why study literature?

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

-       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 seminar 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.

Both the lecture and the Grundkurse will be conducted online and in real time throughout the semester. This will help to give your week a useful structure in times of Corona. 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, password: IntroLiteraryStudiesWS20-21).

You will receive further information via Moodle and e-mail. Please make sure to use and check your official university e-mail addresses at all times. Do not use any other addresses, and do not have e-mails sent to your university address forwarded to other addresses. Our experience in the last semester has shown that that using non-university addresses / forwarding mails will lead to our messages bouncing back in very many cases.

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

You will also need to buy:

Michael Meyer, English and American Literatures. 4. Auflage. UTB Basics. ISBN-13: 798-3825-235505.

Christoph Heyl, Kleine Englische Literaturgeschichte. J.B. Metzler. ISBN-13: 978-3476045096.

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. Eine Anmeldung zur Vorlesung per LSF ist nicht nötig, hier reicht die Anmeldung in dem Moodle-Kurs zur Vorlesung. Für die Grundkurse ist eine Anmeldung verpflichtend.

Vorlesung Introduction to Literary Studies, WS 23/24

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.

Vorlesung:

English Literature in the Eighteenth Century

The eighteenth century was a particularly interesting and exciting period in the history of English literature. This was when the modern world – i.e. our world – began to take shape. This was when many phenomena such as the journalism as we know it and the novel came into being and immediately found a mass readership. Due to special historical, cultural and social conditions, English literature could develop in ways that would have been unthinkable on the continent.

            This lecture course covers a wide range of texts and topics such as the rise of the novel (and its various shapes and forms: epistolary, erotic, experimental, Gothic etc.), other prose texts (travel literature, diaries and autobiographies such as Lady Mary Wortley Montagu’s description of her experiences in Turkey, James Boswell’s outrageously honest diaries and the autobiography of Olaudah Equiano, an ex-slave), poetry (for instance Alexander Pope’s elegant and polished pieces on topics such as stupid books by stupid people, an­d poems by female authors addressing the issue of gender roles and the position of women in society) and drama, including musical drama.

            English literature is more than Literature produced in England; this is why particular attention will be paid to important authors from Scotland and their texts – you will get acquainted with, for instance, Robert Fergusson and Robert Burns who both highlighted the Scottishness of their texts by using elements of Scots rather than standard English. We shall also consider connections between literature and the visual arts as well as literature and music. This means that there will also be lots to see and quite a bit to hear in this introduction to eighteenth-century English literature.

It would be a very good idea to buy: Christoph Heyl, Kleine Englische Literaturgeschichte. J.B. Metzler. ISBN-13: 978-3476045096. The section on the eighteenth century and Romanticism will give you a comprehensive overview. If you also read about what happened before and after the eighteenth century, you will gain a good grasp of long-term developments in the history of English literature.

All texts to be discussed in this lecture course are available in ECCO (Eighteenth-Century Collections Online). You should familiarize yourselves with this digital resource before the beginning of the semester.

Depending on the further development of the pandemic, this lecture course may or may not be taught face to face on campus. Our worst-case scenario is that we will have to continue in online mode. This is not ideal, but the last three semesters have shown that it is doable. In any case teaching will be in real time, so do not double-book this time slot. Please join out moodle

„Saber vender sus cosas“. Zum Verhältnis von Literatur und Ökonomie in der spanischen und hispanoamerikanischen Literatur von der Frühen Neuzeit bis zur Gegenwart

Vorlesung: Spanische Literaturwissenschaft

PD Dr. Agnieszka Komorowska

Do: 10.00 – 12.00 Uhr

Das Verhältnis von Literatur und Ökonomie rückt seit dem sog. New Economic Criticism (Woodmansee/Osteen 1999) in den Fokus der literatur- und medienwissenschaftlichen Forschung. Dabei werden Fragen nach der Bedeutung von Gabe und Tausch für die Semantik literarischer Texte ebenso verhandelt wie das Spannungsfeld zwischen symbolischem und ökonomischem Kapital innerhalb des literarischen Feldes (Pierre Bourdieu) oder Analogien zwischen Geld und Schrift. Die Vorlesung nähert sich diesen Themen aus einer historischen Perspektive und spannt einen Bogen vom pikaresken Roman der Frühen Neuzeit über das Theater des Siglo de Oro und der Aufklärung bis zur Darstellung der Wirtschaftskrisen des 21. Jahrhunderts in Literatur und Film.

Die Vorlesung findet als Präsenzveranstaltung statt (voraussichtlich). Weiterführende Literatur und Unterlagen werden den Studierenden per Moodle zur Verfügung gestellt.
