Inhalt:

Both courses are interconnected; they seek to provide a firm grounding in contemporary literary theory and methodology on the basis of a thorough understanding of the historical development of that theory. The first course, a seminar, focuses more specifically on questions of current strands in, and the history of, literary theory. Students are tutored in the independent and confident application of theory to core topics of modern Literary Studies. In this course students are also required to give an oral presentation. The second course, a lecture, complements the syllabus of the first course: it revises and develops methodological skills and it also provides relevant contextualization. Depending on the core topic, the course explores historical and cultural contexts or key academic debates.

Lernziele und Kompetenzen:

On the basis of the knowledge and the skills imparted in the BA degree programme, the main aim of the module is to enhance students’ skills in key areas of modern Literary Studies in order to prepare them for the independent research they will carry out on their own at Stages II-IV. The module is also designed to help students in the following areas: • Knowledge and Understanding: It allows students to revise and expand knowledge about the theories, the critical approaches and the methodology of Literary Studies. • Intellectual and Transferable Skills: The module consolidates intellectual skills already acquired on a BA level. It enables students to independently examine complex topics and further develops the ability
