Inhalt:
The Master-Course is designed to provide a very det
ailed examination,
contextualization and discussion of
either a group of literary texts – such as a genre, historical period, or oeuvre – and the contexts, concepts and methods needed for their analysis,
or a theoretical concept, approach, or critical theory – and its (historically specific) application.
At this stage of their degree programme, students will be expected to
conduct substantial amounts of work in the seminar independently. They
will also be trained in presenting and defending the findings of their research.
In the second course, a seminar, students will read
and discuss current scholarship conducted in the field. This course also offers additional language skills such as conversation and presentation skills that especially address the needs of MA-students. The seminar includes a presentation of an academic paper in the context of a student conference or workshop, with discussion.
Lernziele und Kompetenzen:
