Departing from theories on urban space (Soja, De Certeau, Lenz) we will explore the city as a meeting ground for cosmopolitan identities and hybrid cultures as well as an intersection of multiple private and public spaces. We will pay close attention to literary and cinematographic ways of narrating city spaces by analyzing literary texts ( Paul Auster, John Rechy and others) and filmic representations of the city (Martin Scorcese, Woody Allen and others). Course requirements are regular class participation, class moderation, and a group project as part of the seminar’s participation in the international conference (IPF) on CitySpaces: Representing the City in Literature, Film and Media (June 25, D3-121 Universität Bielefeld, Organizors Raussert/ Gurr)
