5 GR239 History of German Literature and Culture I Components: Family Fiction 60% H. Heine and Germany (optional) 40% R. Walser - An Introduction (optional) 40% Family Fiction (2 hrs. per week) Lecturer: Tina Pusse Course description: The struggles and the dynamics that take place in families have always been a major topic of literary exploration. Although it is not inevitable that at the end of a drama an entire family lays slaughtered on the stage, like in Hamlet, families, at least in literature, are seen as social units where conflicts, sometimes devastating, arise. Very often family conflicts reflect general problems related to gender issues and to concepts of masculinity and femininity. The course will analyse family conflicts in their historical contexts in novellas and short stories from Romanticism to contemporary German literature. Method of assessment: 20% attendance with active participation including a short presentation, 80% take home essay (the essay assignment will be broken down into four steps, each of them will build 20% of your essay grade). Core texts: Franz Kafka: Die Verwandlung. Stuttgart: Reclam 2006 (ISBN: ); Ludwig Tieck: Der blonde Eckbert. Der Runenberg. Stuttgart: Reclam 2006 (ISBN: ); E.T.A. Hoffmann: Der Sandmann. Stuttgart: Reclam (ISBN ): Elfriede Jelinek: Die Klavierspielerin (Excerpt will be provided). Heinrich Heine and Germany (1hr. per week) Lecturer: Michael Shields Course description: In 1843 Heine travelled to Germany from Paris, where he had spent over ten years as a political refugee and met Karl Marx and other progressive thinkers. His travel poem Deutschland. Ein Wintermärchen (first published in 1844 and banned in Prussia the same year) is a satirical description of the impressions of such a journey, and contains hilarious descriptions of the contrast between the revolutionary poet and the conservative figures he meets. The course will focus on this canonical poem and the literary, political and cultural influences that helped shape its representation of Germany. 5
6 Teaching and learning methods: Starting with a close reading of the text, students will be introduced to different ways of approaching it and will develop techniques for understanding and analyzing it, comparing interpretations and translations and branching out to consider related texts where relevant. We will approach it as a spoken and written work and discuss how best to use the wide range of interpretative tools available in the library and online. Methods of assessment and evaluation: Written exam (50%), take-home essay (50%). Core texts: Heinrich Heine, Deutschland. Ein Wintermärchen. Edited by Bellmann, Werner (Reclam) ISBN: Robert Walser - An introduction (1 hr. per week) Lecturer: Dagmar Drabent Course description: Robert Walser is one of the most important Swiss writers of the 20 th Century. His literary reputation is endorsed by renowned writers and theorists alike. He is most famous for his unique short prose form and idiosyncratic style. A characteristic of Walser s texts is a playful serenity behind which hide existential questions. The course will introduce students to his writing by analysing and interpreting some of his short prose pieces and other samples of his writing. Thereby students will gain a deeper understanding of modernist literature but also insights into Swiss culture. Methods of assessment: Written exam 80%, continuous assessment 20% Core texts: Die Handschuhe; Der Nobelpreis; short prose from Fritz Kochers Aufsätze (Der Schulaufsatz) and from other works; all texts will be provided as handouts. 6
