"Making the Beast with two Backs": Race, Gender, and Sexuality in Renaissance Literature [AE_HSRenLit] -
- Dozent/in:
- Marcus Hartner
- Angaben:
- Hauptseminar, 2 SWS, für FAU Scientia Gaststudierende zugelassen
- Termine:
- Mi, 10:15 - 11:45, A 401
- Inhalt:
- Cultural constructions of the notions of 'race', 'gender', and 'sexuality' are subject to historical change. By turning to the early modern period this class engages with an important and formative phase in the long and complex history of those concepts. Over the course of the summer term, we will study a broad selection of literary and theoretical texts in order to investigate the formation and intersection of notions of race, gender, and sexuality in English Renaissance literature and culture with a particular focus on early modern drama and historical contexts of intercultural contact. The reading for this class includes inter alia William Shakespeare's plays The Merchant of Venice and Othello, John Fletcher's The Island Princess and John Massinger's The Renegado.
- Empfohlene Literatur:
- Please acquire copies of William Shakespeare's Othello and The Merchant of Venice (Arden Edition or New Cambridge Edition) and begin to read those plays during the term break. All other texts will be made available on StudOn.

"Tears, Idle Tears": Sadness and Loss in 19th-Century British Culture [AE_HSSadLoss] -
- Dozent/in:
- Christian Krug
- Angaben:
- Hauptseminar, 2 SWS
- Termine:
- Do, 14:15 - 15:45, C 601
- Voraussetzungen / Organisatorisches:
- Das Haupteminar gehört zu folgenden Modulen:
BA English and American Studies: Hauptmodul A (301) Literature/Culture (Zulassungsvoraussetzung: Zwischenmodul II) - HA

MA Literaturstudien - intermedial und interkulturell (Anglistik als Kernfach): Modul 9 Aufbaumodul
Scheinerwerb: Referat + Hausarbeit
- Inhalt:
- “Tears, idle, tears, I know not what they mean, / Tears from the depth of some divine despair / Rise in the heart, and gather to the eyes”, Tennyson wrote in his pseudo-mediaeval long poem The Princess in 1847. Sentimentality, Carolyn Burdett has argued, defines Victorian culture and tone as much as the mills of the industrial north, the poverty of city slums, or the extension of the franchise. This seminar looks at representations of sadness and suffering, loss and nostalgia in British literature and culture of the 19th century, and the cultural and ideological work that they do. In addition to poetry such as Tennyson’s, we will look at Victorian melodrama, genre paintings, and social problem novels of the 1830s and ’40s – specifically those of Charles Dickens (famously celebrated – or denigrated – by Trollope as “Mr Popular Sentiment” in 1855).

PS/MS Melodrama: Stage and Screen [AE_MSMelodrama] -
- Dozent/in:
- Christian Krug
- Angaben:
- PS (MS, PO 2020), 2 SWS
- Termine:
- Do, 18:00 - 19:30, C 301
- Inhalt:
- Melodrama has had many lives. As a theatrical genre, it dominated the popular European stages in the 19th century. In film, it surfaced as historical costume drama in the UK in the 1940s (“Gainsborough melodramas”) and in Douglas Sirk’s domestic Hollywood melodramas of the 1950s, but it also inflected British Social Problem and New-Wave films and hardboiled-detective fictions. Melodrama may have owed much of its success to the fact that it continues to question and transcend traditional generic categories. As a modality, it traverses genres and media and works at sensitive cultural and aesthetic boundaries (Gledhill). As a mode of expression, both artistic and political, it is a crucial feature of modernity. This seminar will look at the various incarnations of melodrama in the 19th and 20th century, with a focus on plays and films.
