Students have a wide-ranging knowledge of literary history. They are able to formulate different approaches to interpretation, to assess literary texts in a differentiated and analytically founded way, not only with regards to developments in literary history with the example of authors and works, but also in relation to developments in contemporary literary life. 

Selected texts of the reading list (Modern German Literature) are embedded in the contexts and developments of literary history, cultural history and society; reflection on the importance of these texts in relation to current literary developments; improvement of analytical interpretation skills with different methodological approaches. Preparation for the oral exams, where students have to present their own methodological approaches in regard to the contents of the class and will be examined about their knowledge of all (!) texts of the reading list.

Introductory presentations, readings, teamwork, discussions

Course with immanent examination character; the assessment is based on regular written and/or oral contributions of the participants.
