2009 BM1 Introduction to the Critical and Scholarly Discussion of Literature, Part 1

2009-04-06T11:20:18Z

Julia Meier:

:*Hannah Treffert: Di 8 - 10, A04 4-411 (starts Oct 28)

The first part of the Basismodul focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering five parallel courses (supported by tutorials). Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|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) and as a master copy at Wersig. In addition you will need to purchase two books.

*William Shakespeare. ''Antony and Cleopatra'' [1607]. Ed. E.A.J. Honigmann. London: Arden (3rd Series), 1996.
::*[[William Shakespeare, Antony and Cleopatra (1607)]]
*Herman Melville. ''Bartleby, the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street'' [1853].

[[2007-08 BM1 Introduction to the Critical and Scholarly Discussion of Literature:Curriculum|Course work]]: You will be asked to hand in three assignments (in session 6, 10 and 13 respectively) and produce a Research Paper Outline (due 02.03.09). The assignments are limited to a max. of 2-3 pages of text, formatted according to the [[Literary Studies:Style sheet|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 that describes your problem and your goal, and presenting a tentative table of contents as well as a short bibliography).

Tutorials will help you to practise your analysis skills and support you in doing your assignments and Research Paper Outline.

2009 BM1 Introduction to the Critical and Scholarly Discussion of Literature, Part 1

2009-04-06T11:11:56Z

Julia Meier: New page: :*Hannah Treffert: Di 8 - 10, A04 4-411 (starts Oct 28) :*Soeren Koopmann: Do 8 - 10, A01 0-004 (starts Oct 30) :*Sarina Lal: Fr 10 - 12, A13 0-027 (starts Oct 31) The first part of the B...

:*Hannah Treffert: Di 8 - 10, A04 4-411 (starts Oct 28)
:*Soeren Koopmann: Do 8 - 10, A01 0-004 (starts Oct 30)
:*Sarina Lal: Fr 10 - 12, A13 0-027 (starts Oct 31)

The first part of the Basismodul focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering five parallel courses (supported by tutorials). Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|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) and as a master copy at Wersig. In addition you will need to purchase two books.

'''Courses A-E''':
*William Shakespeare. ''The Tempest'' [1611]. Ed. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. London: Arden (3rd Series), 2000.
*Joseph Conrad. ''Heart of Darkness'' [1899]. Eds. Owen Knowles, Robert Hampson, and J.H. Stape. London: Penguin Classics, 2007.

'''Course F''':
*William Shakespeare. ''Othello'' [1603]. Ed. E.A.J. Honigmann. London: Arden (3rd Series), 1996.
*Joseph Conrad. ''Heart of Darkness'' [1899]. Eds. Owen Knowles, Robert Hampson, and J.H. Stape. London: Penguin Classics, 2007.

[[2007-08 BM1 Introduction to the Critical and Scholarly Discussion of Literature:Curriculum|Course work]]: You will be asked to hand in three assignments (in session 6, 10 and 13 respectively) and produce a Research Paper Outline (due 02.03.09). The assignments are limited to a max. of 2-3 pages of text, formatted according to the [[Literary Studies:Style sheet|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 that describes your problem and your goal, and presenting a tentative table of contents as well as a short bibliography).

Tutorials will help you to practise your analysis skills and support you in doing your assignments and Research Paper Outline.
