Term 2022:
American literature in the face of "experience" Our seminar discussions will focus on the concept of "experience" and the representation of "experience" in American literature. In particular, I would like to narrow the reflection on this very broad concept to the experience of the city (here the literature of New York will be an example) and the so-called "border experience" (here the literature on genocide will be an example). In addition, seminar participants will deepen their knowledge of literary theory and various ways of analyzing literary texts (e.g. feminism, psychoanalysis, intertextuality, urban studies, trauma studies, etc.). Topics that do not fall within the above subject fields are acceptable, provided that the seminar participant submits a detailed thesis project and bibliography for the promoter's approval. |
