230311 Ludonarratology (S) (WiSe 2023/2024)

Contents, comment

In this class, we will investigate developments in the field of ludonarratology, the study of how games tell stories. We will read seminal publications in this field and will investigate new developments in game studies. A game studies workshop is planned for later in the semester in which students will get the opportunity to test out their theoretical knowledge in a more hands-on approach.

Requirements for participation, required level

Experience with narratology and gaming is welcome but not a mandatory prerequisite for this class. Non-gamers are just as welcome as experienced gamers. A solid understanding of literary studies is required, however.
