230290 Analyzing and Interpreting Literary Representations of War (S) (WiSe 2024/2025)

Contents, comment

This class is both an element in the FsB 2017, BM2 (2.3: Genres, Authors, Periods) as well as an element in the FsB 2022, Basis2 (2.3 Analyzing and Interpreting).

In this seminar, we are going to explore some of the central, canonical texts in British literature to practice the nuts and bolts of literary analysis and interpretation. You will engage in close reading and practice the usage of literary terminology, methodology and theory by analyzing and interpreting different literary text types (predominantly poetry and drama).

Requirements for participation, required level

I recommend that you attend Basis 2.1 "Introduction to Literary Analysis and Interpretation" first before attending this class.

Bibliography

If not indicated otherwise, primary and secondary texts will be made available in the seminar's Lernraum/Moodle.
