| Course Description (principal topics
covered): |
| This is a survey course of
German literature from the beginnings of German literature until
the present. For the most part, we will be using a workbook on
German literature, which will help us get some insight into the
development of German literature. We will read short texts and
excerpts typical of their time or a particular author in order to
deduce the major characteristics of different literary epochs from
them. The literary epochs will also be discussed in relation to
other artistic achievements and the historical context. Multi-media
presentations will help us get a feeling for the particular time
periods. |
