Please note: The BM1 (literature) and BM2 (culture) modules consists of a seminar and a tutorial. All students beginning in the winter term 2009/10 need to enroll for one of the tutorials called "Reasearch Methods". Additionally, you will choose between a seminar under BM 1 (literature) or BM 2 (culture) for the winter term and then study the other one in the summer term.

  • 3.02.016 Research Methods - N.N.
  • 3.02.017 Research Methods - N.N.
  • 3.02.018 Research Methods - N.N.
  • 3.02.019 Research Methods - N.N.
  • 3.02.026 Research Methods - N.N.
  • 3.02.027 Research Methods - N.N.
  • 3.02.028 Research Methods - N.N.

The seminar part of the Basismodul 1 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering five parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP and open a wiki account which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

All parallel courses have a common structure. The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice. You will find information relating to your course under the individual course number and lecturer.

The "analytical tools" will be presented by the lecturers (on a handout) in each meeting. The additional reading from which these 'tools' are taken is not obligatory, and it can be done either before or after each session.

Both the texts and the other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase two books.

Courses A-E:

  • William Shakespeare. Hamlet [1603]. Eds. Neil Taylor and Ann Thompson. London: Arden (3rd Series), 2000.
  • James, Henry. Turn of the Screw [1898].

Course work: You will be asked to hand in three assignments (in session 5, 8 and 13 respectively) and produce a Research Paper Outline (Due: 12.03.2010). The assignments are limited to a max. of 2-3 pages of text, formatted according to the style sheet, and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively. For the Research Paper Outline you will need to find your own topic to work on and document the preliminary work (this includes finding an appropriate title, writing a paragraph on the state of the art of your problem and one that describes your problem and your goal, and presenting a tentative table of contents as well as a short bibliography).
