Inhalt:

The module consists of a lecture and a seminar. Both courses are interconnected; they seek to provide a firm grounding in contemporary literary theory and methodology on the basis of a thorough understanding of the historical development of that theory.
The first course, a seminar, focuses more specifically on questions of current strands in, and the history of, literary theory. Students are tutored in the independent and confident application of theory to core topics of modern Literary Studies. In this course students are also required to give an oral presentation.
The second course, a lecture, complements the syllabus of the first course: it revises and develops methodological skills and it also provides relevant contextualization. Depending on the core topic, the course explores historical and cultural contexts or key academic debates. (übernommen aus dem Prüfungsordnungsmodul Introductory Module Literature)
