'''New online access to "Varieties of English" and "The Atlas of North American English""'''

You can now access the online version to "Varieties of English", which covers varieties of English spoken all over the world. This works the same way as the "Atlas of North American English" (actually, since it is the same publisher, the format is identical, making it much easier to use)

Varieties of English website:
http://rzblx10.uni-regensburg.de/dbinfo/detail.php?bib_id=ubol&colors=&ocolors=&lett=f&titel_id=7174

You just type in your new library username and password (the one that has four letters and four numbers).

The great thing is that you can even use this databank at home (ah, the glories of cyberspace!) You will need earphones to hear the audio samples. The websites allow you to listen to reading passages as well as free passages from English accents all over the world (VAE) as well as from different parts of North America (ANAE).

Here is the link to the Atlas of North American English:

http://www.atlas.mouton-content.com.p-serv2.bis.uni-oldenburg.de/

'''This is the British Library's Sounds Familiar website, which shows the different dialects found in the UK today'''

''' "Do You Speak American" website'''

This is the website that accompanies the DVD and book "Do You Speak American?", both of which are available in the university library. http://www.pbs.org/speak/seatosea/americanvarieties/

Among other fascinating spots on this website is the following map, which you can click on to listen to radio stations from all over the US. http://www.pbs.org/speak/seatosea/americanvarieties/radio/#

I would encourage to just look around on the site; there is a plethora of audio and visual material here which will help you in your study of American dialects.

'''America's Regional Accents, Holding Fast'''

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=6883700

'''Dictionary of American Regional English'''

This is the website of the Dictionary of American Regional English. It includes dialect maps, but also audio files of samples of speech from speakers of many different American dialects.

This seminar is part of the Basismodul ang070 and focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering ten parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. Ed. Sukanta Chaudhuri. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: Bloomsbury, 2017.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Time Machine: An Invention''. Ed. Stephen Arata. New York, NY: Norton, 2008.

Course work: You will be asked to write three ungraded exercise assignments (max. 3 pages) and produce a Research Paper Outline 'Plus' (RPOplus), consisting of a research paper outline and a problem-oriented sample analysis (6 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively. For the RPOplus you will need to find your own topic to work on, 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) and write up a formal and genre-specific analysis of a passage that fits in with the research question and thesis statement put forward in your RPO.

This seminar is part of the Basismodul ang070 and focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering ten parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. Ed. Sukanta Chaudhuri. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: Bloomsbury, 2017.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Time Machine: An Invention''. Ed. Stephen Arata. New York, NY: Norton, 2008.

Course work: You will be asked to write three ungraded exercise assignments (max. 3 pages) and produce a Research Paper Outline 'Plus' (RPOplus), consisting of a research paper outline and a problem-oriented sample analysis (6 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively. For the RPOplus you will need to find your own topic to work on, 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) and write up a formal and genre-specific analysis of a passage that fits in with the research question and thesis statement put forward in your RPO.

This seminar is part of the Basismodul ang070 and focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering ten parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. Ed. Sukanta Chaudhuri. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: Bloomsbury, 2017.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Time Machine: An Invention''. Ed. Stephen Arata. New York, NY: Norton, 2008.

Course work: You will be asked to write three ungraded exercise assignments (max. 3 pages) and produce a Research Paper Outline 'Plus' (RPOplus), consisting of a research paper outline and a problem-oriented sample analysis (6 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively. For the RPOplus you will need to find your own topic to work on, 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) and write up a formal and genre-specific analysis of a passage that fits in with the research question and thesis statement put forward in your RPO.

This seminar is part of the Basismodul ang070 and focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering ten parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. Ed. Sukanta Chaudhuri. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: Bloomsbury, 2017.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Time Machine: An Invention''. Ed. Stephen Arata. New York, NY: Norton, 2008.

Course work: You will be asked to write three ungraded exercise assignments (max. 3 pages) and produce a Research Paper Outline 'Plus' (RPOplus), consisting of a research paper outline and a problem-oriented sample analysis (6 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively. For the RPOplus you will need to find your own topic to work on, 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) and write up a formal and genre-specific analysis of a passage that fits in with the research question and thesis statement put forward in your RPO.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

[http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/ang070_Curriculum.pdf Course Work]: You will be asked to complete a Written Test (Date: Saturday, July 08, 2017, TBA, A14 Hörsaal 1 und 2), and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on Aug 15). 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).

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering nine parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Island of Doctor Moreau''. Ed. Mason Harris. Peterborough, Ontario: Broadview, 2009.

Course work: You will be asked to write three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering eight parallel courses. 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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Shelley, Mary. ''Frankenstein''. Ed. Paul Hunter. New York and London: Norton, 2012.

Course work: You will be asked to hand in three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages, due on November 20/21, December 11/12 and January 22/23 respectively), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

[http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/ang070_Curriculum.pdf Course Work]: You will be asked to complete a Written Test (Date: Saturday, July 08, 2017, TBA, A14 Hörsaal 1 und 2), and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on Aug 15). 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).
The RPO is to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet].

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

|}

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

[http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/ang070_Curriculum.pdf Course Work]: You will be asked to complete a Written Test (Date: Saturday, July 08, 2017, TBA, A14 Hörsaal 1 und 2), and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on Aug 15). 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).
The RPO is to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet].

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

[http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/ang070_Curriculum.pdf Course Work]: You will be asked to complete a Written Test (Date: Saturday, July 08, 2017, TBA, A14 Hörsaal 1 und 2), and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on Aug 15). 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).
The RPO is to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet].

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

[http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/ang070_Curriculum.pdf Course Work]: You will be asked to complete a Written Test (Date: Saturday, July 08, 2017, TBA, A14 Hörsaal 1 und 2), and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on Aug 15). 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).
The RPO is to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet].

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Jacobs, Harriet. ''Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl''. Eds. Nellie Y. McKay and Frances Smith Foster. New York and London: Norton, 2001. Print.

Moore, Alan and David Lloyd. ''V for Vendetta.'' New York: Vertigo, 2008. Print.

''Calamity Jane''. Dir. David Butler. Perf. Doris Day and Howard Keel. 1953. Warner Home Video, 2003. DVD.

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering nine parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Island of Doctor Moreau''. Ed. Mason Harris. Peterborough, Ontario: Broadview, 2009.

Course work: You will be asked to write three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering nine parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Island of Doctor Moreau''. Ed. Mason Harris. Peterborough, Ontario: Broadview, 2009.

Course work: You will be asked to write three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering nine parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Island of Doctor Moreau''. Ed. Mason Harris. Peterborough, Ontario: Broadview, 2009.

Course work: You will be asked to write three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering nine parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Island of Doctor Moreau''. Ed. Mason Harris. Peterborough, Ontario: Broadview, 2009.

Course work: You will be asked to write three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering nine parallel courses. Please make sure that you are registered under ONE of these in Stud.IP.

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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Wells, H.G. ''The Island of Doctor Moreau''. Ed. Mason Harris. Peterborough, Ontario: Broadview, 2009.

Course work: You will be asked to write three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Douglass, Frederick. ''Narrative of the Life of Frederic Douglass, an American Slave, Written By Himself''. 1845. Eds. William L. Andrews and William S. McFeely. New York: Norton, 1997. Print.

|}

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Douglass, Frederick. ''Narrative of the Life of Frederic Douglass, an American Slave, Written By Himself''. 1845. Eds. William L. Andrews and William S. McFeely. New York: Norton, 1997. Print.

Moore, Alan and Dave Gibbons. ''Watchmen''. Burbank, CA: DC Comics, 2014. Print.

''Breakfast on Pluto''. Dir. Neil Jordan. Perf. Cillian Murphy, Ruth Negga, Liam Neeson, Stephen Rea, and Brendan Gleeson. 2005. Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, 2006. DVD.

[http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/ang070_Curriculum.pdf Course Work]: You will be asked to complete a Written Test (Date: Saturday, July 09, 2016, 10:00-12:00, A14 Hörsaal 1 und 2), and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on Aug 15). 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).
The RPO is to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet].

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:

The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering eight parallel courses. 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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Shelley, Mary. ''Frankenstein''. Ed. Paul Hunter. New York and London: Norton, 2012.

Course work: You will be asked to hand in three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages, due on November 20/21, December 11/12 and January 22/23 respectively), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering eight parallel courses. 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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Shelley, Mary. ''Frankenstein''. Ed. Paul Hunter. New York and London: Norton, 2012.

Course work: You will be asked to hand in three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages, due on November 20/21, December 11/12 and January 22/23 respectively), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering eight parallel courses. 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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Shelley, Mary. ''Frankenstein''. Ed. Paul Hunter. New York and London: Norton, 2012.

Course work: You will be asked to hand in three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages, due on November 20/21, December 11/12 and January 22/23 respectively), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

This seminar part of the Basismodul ang070 focuses on techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing literature. We are offering eight parallel courses. 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.

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:

* Shakespeare, William. ''The Tempest''. Eds. Virginia Mason Vaughan and Alden T. Vaughan. The Arden Shakespeare, third series. London: A&C Black, 2011.
* Shelley, Mary. ''Frankenstein''. Ed. Paul Hunter. New York and London: Norton, 2012.

Course work: You will be asked to hand in three optional exercise assignments (max. 3 pages, due on November 20/21, December 11/12 and January 22/23 respectively), complete a Written Test, and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on February 28). The assignments are to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet], and will require you to analyse poetry, drama and fiction respectively, one of which will be tested at the end of the term (Written Test). 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).

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Douglass, Frederick. ''Narrative of the Life of Frederic Douglass, an American Slave, Written By Himself''. 1845. Eds. William L. Andrews and William S. McFeely. New York: Norton, 1997. Print.

Moore, Alan and Dave Gibbons. ''Watchmen''. Burbank, CA: DC Comics, 2014. Print.

''Breakfast on Pluto''. Dir. Neil Jordan. Perf. Cillian Murphy, Ruth Negga, Liam Neeson, Stephen Rea, and Brendan Gleeson. 2005. Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, 2006. DVD.

[http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/ang070_Curriculum.pdf Course Work]: You will be asked to complete a Written Test (Date: Saturday, July 09, 2016, 10:00-12:00, A14 Hörsaal 1 und 2), and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on Aug 15). 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).
The RPO is to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet].

|}

Both the lecture and the courses are part of the Basismodul ang070 and focus on key concepts in cultural studies and techniques of textual analysis in the context of discussing culture. The ''VL/Ü Key Concepts of Cultural Studies'' consists of 6 lectures on "Historical Backgrounds and Critical Concepts" and 13 courses/Übungen on "Key Concepts of Cultural Studies".

The Übung analyzes material and is relying on concepts and approaches complemented by the lectures. The analysis of the material from a cultural studies perspective is based on three guiding questions:
*1. What are the specific and medial characteristics of the Material? (See Handouts: Conceptual Tools)
*2. How is the material situated and what institutions are responsible for its existence and discussion?
*3. What function and effect for identity formation can the material have?

Please make sure that you are registered for the lecture and ONE of the courses in Stud.IP and open a [[Help:Account|wiki account]] which will enable you to participate in online discussions.

The texts for our courses will come from a common pool, though each course may have a different choice.

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. Mandatory texts and other materials will be made accessible to you electronically (cf. the links below). In addition you will need to purchase the following works:

Douglass, Frederick. ''Narrative of the Life of Frederic Douglass, an American Slave, Written By Himself''. 1845. Eds. William L. Andrews and William S. McFeely. New York: Norton, 1997. Print.

Moore, Alan and Dave Gibbons. ''Watchmen''. Burbank, CA: DC Comics, 2014. Print.

''Breakfast on Pluto''. Dir. Neil Jordan. Perf. Cillian Murphy, Ruth Negga, Liam Neeson, Stephen Rea, and Brendan Gleeson. 2005. Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, 2006. DVD.

[http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/ang070_Curriculum.pdf Course Work]: You will be asked to complete a Written Test (Date: Saturday, July 09, 2016, 10:00-12:00, A14 Hörsaal 1 und 2), and produce a Research Paper Outline (2 pages, due on Aug 15). 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).
The RPO is to be formatted according to the [http://www.anglistik.uni-oldenburg.de/download/BM7/leitfaden_lit-cult_2012.pdf style sheet].
