Introduction to the central field of literary studies at the interface of theory and practice.

Processes of disseminating literature refer to activities of professional readers, i.e. people who deal professionally with literature, either as authors, reviewers, publishers, booksellers, librarians, teachers, archivists or literary agents. Professional readers aim to convey the result of their reading to a smaller or larger public, e.g. through a face-to-face communication in a bookstore or a headline in a review of the Frankfurt Book Fair. The course provides a theoretical outline and an overview of the practical activities of professional readers.
