This course looks at the different types of units making up a sentence and the relations holding between them. We will explore different levels and perspectives of syntactic analysis, starting from words as basic building blocks up to clause types and complex sentence structures. Through practical exercises you will develop the ability to analyze English sentence structure using basic syntactic concepts like phrase structure, syntactic functions (subject, object, etc.), or thematic roles (agent, patient, etc.), to identify and describe clause and sentence types (finite and non-finite clauses, main and subordinate clauses, etc.), and to critically reflect on questions of grammaticality and acceptability. The course requirements are regular and active participation plus a written end-of-term test. DIE ANMELDUNG ZU DEN PROSEMINAREN ERFOLGT ÜBER LISTEN, DIE AB MONTAG, 10.

This proseminar is designed to help you analyse English sentences and clauses, so that you will acquire some basic knowledge about the way English syntax is supposed to work – including attempts to explain syntactic structure. The emphasis lies on providing practical skills in describing syntactic structure. Topics we will be looking at include syntactic functions (subject, object, predicator, etc.), word classes and their behaviour in sentences, phrase structure (i.e. noun, verb, and adjective phrases), clause structure and clause types. The course requirements are regular and active participation plus a written end-of-term test. DIE ANMELDUNG ZU DEN PROSEMINAREN ERFOLGT ÜBER LISTEN, DIE AB MONTAG, 10.

Pragmatics is one of the relatively new disciplines in the science of language and as such it is still an enormously diverse area of research. Most pragmaticists would probably describe what they are doing as the study of language use or the study of speaker meaning as opposed to the study of sentence or word meaning. The main assumption here is that pure semantic theories of meaning cannot adequately describe, explain or even predict what speakers actually mean in a communicative situation. Consider the following two utterances: A: Nigel has fourteen children; B: I earn 900 Euros a month. Why do we understand speaker A as referring to an exact number (although if speaker A in fact had 16 children he still would have spoken the truth) and speaker B as referring to a rough approximation (because speaker B probably earns something like 897,34 Euros a month). Or consider B’s answer to A’s rhetorical question in the next example: A: I do think that Mrs. Jenkins is an old windbag, don’t you? B: Huh, lovely weather for March, isn’t it? What are the circumstances under which such an answer would be perfectly alright? These and other related questions will be the focus of this seminar. Successful participation in this seminar will include the presentation of a topic in class and a written test. In addition, students will be expected to fulfil regular reading assignments primarily from a reader that will be made available by the beginning of the semester.

Building on the phonetics and phonology section of the “Introduction to Linguistics” course, this class aims at a deeper understanding of English “sound production”. In the course of the semester, we will first take a closer look at some more aspects of phonetics and move on to a discussion of further aspects of phonology in theory and application. Of particular interest to us will be how we can use this knowledge to approach and understand different social, regional and geographical varieties of spoken English. Course requirements include the usual: regular and active participation, a presentation in class (or an equivalent assignment) and a written end-of-term test.

The earliest English texts date back to around 700 - and their language is extremely different from the English language as we know it. And even if we consider a text from the end of the 14th century, we will find it more recognizable, but still far from easily readable. Shakespeare's works seem to offer a safe footing - but why are the sisters in Macbeth weird, and why couldn't Shakespeare find correct rhymes, at least some of the time? Then again, Shakespeare's language is markedly different from 14th century English, and even more

so from the earliest texts. The explanation to all this lies in the fact that English is a language, and languages are forever subject to change, be it in pronunciation, vocabulary, or syntax. We will outline some of the major changes which have affected the English language over its long history, and which have contributed to its present shape. In the process, we will consider some basics about historical linguistics, i.e. the description and explanation of language change. This will involve the search for causes of linguistic change, which may be found inside language itself, but also in the cultural circumstances in which languages are embedded. Credits will be given for regular attendance, submitting a series of exercises, and the end-of-term written test. EINE ANMELDUNG IST NICHT ERFORDERLICH. Introductory reading: N.F. Blake. 1996.

Every student of language is familiar with terms like subject, predicator, object; active, passive; relative clause, adverbial clause, etc. These are established notions in descriptive syntax, and in many cases go back to Latin grammar. Since the 1950s, thought about grammar and syntax has been re-devised with the aim of developing a con- sistent theory which was meant to be able to describe and explain the data, i.e. the sentences and other con- structions found in a language, and also to mirror the mental structure of a speaker’s grammar: the “internal grammar”. This development is inseparably associated with the name of Noam Chomsky, who has been the spiritus rector during a sequence of revisions and re-formulations of Generative Grammar. A typical (and re- maining) assumption of this theoretical approach has been that human language is built up from a number of modules (phonology, syntax, semantics, and the lexicon) which possess their own internal structures and rules, and which are linked by other sets of rules. This, taken together, was seen as what “knowledge of a language” or of “grammar” meant: a speaker’s “competence”, while performance was regarded as secondary. Construction Grammar, on the other hand, claims to be usage-based. This model advocates the idea that syntactic structures (constructions) are linked with experiential structures; furthermore, the more frequent a construction, the better-known (entrenched) it will be. One starting point for construction grammar is found in idioms like pull a fast one, bring down the house, etc. These have traditionally been considered as excep- tional, and not within the scope of syntactic description. But they are definitely not outside grammar: he pulled a fast one, The band came on and brought the house down. Accordingly, construction grammar attempts to provide an integrated account of syntax and “knowledge”, which includes the function of syntactic construc- tions in discourse. In order to get the credits for this class, participants will have to attend regularly, give a presentation, and either sit a written end-of-term test or hand in a written paper until March 31. Students planning to take part in the seminar must register for an EWS site which will be available by the end of June, and confirm their attendance by sending me an e-mail ([email protected]) until September 30.

"Then you should say what you mean," the March Hare went on. "I do," Alice hastily replied, "at least – I mean what I say – that's the same thing, you know." "Not the same thing a bit!" said the Hatter. Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Who is right in this discussion? The problem which it raises is fundamental for the analysis and modelling of human communication. A simple account of communication would include the following stages: 1. We want to communicate something to somebody. 2. We have to produce an utterance which helps us communicate (exactly) what we wish to communicate. 3. The addressee has to understand our utterance, and recognise what we want to communicate. 4. The addressee has to perform certain types of "action" as a result of what we have communicated. That things are not all that simple is suggested by the sheer number and diversity of theories and models of communication that have been formulated since the early sixties: Speech Act Theory (Austin, Searle); Pragmatics, including the Co-operative Principle and a number of Maxims of Conversation (Grice); Relevance Theory (Sperber & Wilson), which claims to be superior to either of the two preceding models. (That the situation is more complex is also suggested by our own experience in trying to "get our meaning across".) In the seminar, we will discuss the central positions and explanatory devices of the models that were mentioned, and apply them to data. We will also come to realize that diversity in the choice of words (or longer expressions) is a factor in understanding – and misunderstanding. In order to get the credits for this class, participants will have to attend regularly, give a presentation, and either sit a written end-of-term test or hand in a written paper until March 31. Students planning to take part in the seminar must register for an EWS site which will be available by the end of June, and confirm their attendance by sending me an e-mail ([email protected]) until September 30. Die Veranstaltung wird als Blockseminar in der Woche vom 12. bis 16. Februar 2007 durchgeführt. Die genauen Zeiten und Räume werden noch bekanntgegeben.

5.10., 6.10., 12.10., 11.11. 09:00-16:00 Uhr This Hauptseminar offers an introduction to research in SLA (second language acquisition). We will examine the scope of SLA research and discuss what language teachers may gain from understanding research reports. The sessions will focus on research questions, methodology, quantitative and qualitative research paradigms, settings, instrumentation and research in the EFL-classroom. The ultimate goal of the seminar is to enable you to critically evaluate and review research reports in journals such as Applied Linguistics, Applied Psycholinguistics, IRAL (International Review of Applied Linguistics), Language Learning, Studies in Second Language Acquisition and Second Language Research. A quick scan of the chapters in “An Introduction to Second Language Acquisition Research” by Diane Larsen-Freeman and Michael H. Long (1991, New York, NY: Longman, UB: C 16639, BSP: SED 480/76) may help you decide whether or not the range of topics in this seminar are fascinating enough to spark your interest. Credit will be given on the basis of regular attendance, active participation in class and your written contributions to a portfolio of material on one area of second language research which is to be compiled by the end of the seminar (11 November) in cooperative groups.

This class addresses students who are preparing for a Staatsexamensprüfung either this autumn or next spring. Consultations will take place either individually or in groups working on the same or similar exam topics. Everyone who is interested ought to contact me via e-mail ([email protected]), stating his/her exam topic and exam slot (autumn or spring). This will allow me to make arrangements about dates. Sprachpraxis GRUNDSTUDIUM The programme of courses offered as part of the Sprachpraxis module consists of Integrated Foundation Courses (IFCs) and Written and Oral Communication Courses (WOCs). You should attend one of each type of course, starting with an IFC (4SWS) and subsequently moving on to a WOC (2SWS). These course types are described in greater detail below. Students in their first semester should enrol for an IFC; details of how to enrol will be given at the introductory session for new students on Wednesday, October 11th (2 p.m. in Hörsaal 1).

All other students should apply for Sprachpraxis courses online through the EWS site. For details of the procedure for applying for a place in a course, please see the notices on departmental noticeboards or visit the EWS website for Sprachpraxis. (www.ews.uni-dortmund.de/Spra) Integrated Foundation Courses (IFC) The aim of these courses is to provide systematic and interconnected language training. Hence, all IFCs will contain elements of pronunciation training, grammar practice, mistakes recognition, listening and reading comprehension, and some discussions. Please note that IFCs are 4-hour courses; groups will not be split and a maximum of 30 students will be able to attend each course. Once you join an IFC, you will be required to attend both parts regularly.

“Dig a bit in the history of this place. You'll find a, a steady stream of fairly odd occurrences. Now, I believe this whole area is a centre of mystical energy, that things gravitate towards it that, that, that you might not find elsewhere. Like zombies, werewolves, incubi, succubi, everything you've ever dreaded was under your bed, but told yourself couldn't be by the light of day. They're all real.” Join us as we examine all forms of the supernatural in film, tv and literature.

HAUPTSTUDIUM If you are studying under LPO 2003, it is vital that you check which courses you are required to take in the Hauptstudium. The requirements differ depending on which qualification you are working towards (e.g. GHR, BK, etc.). For information on this point, see the WHAT NOW? Sprachpraxis in the Hauptstudium notice. You must register in advance for Sprachpraxis courses in the Hauptstudium; to do so, visit the EWS webspace for Sprachpraxis and choose the course(s) you wish to take. The number of places in each course will be limited. Academic Writing These courses aim at developing the understanding and writing of academic English and will guide students through the processes of text analysis, evaluation, drafting and editing. Classroom work will focus on identifying features of language at different levels of textual design and will show how vocabulary and grammar relate to the rhetorical function and context of communication. Model essays and practice material will be available during the course of the seminar. Students will be expected to contribute work on a regular basis. Access to these classes will be regulated through the EWS intranet platform.

Translation For SEK I and SEK II students, this is advanced practice in translation into English with the demands of the final examination (alte Studienordnung) very much in mind. For students studying under the 2003 regulations, this course will provide practice in translation and give you the opportunity to gain the credit points for translation required in the respective HS module. These classes will run parallel: it would not, therefore, be sensible to attend more than one. Students attending any of these classes will be expected to prepare texts in advance of each session and to hand in work for marking. Students studying under the 2003 regulations are required to have two translation assignments accepted (i.e. with pass grades) in the course of the term to gain the credit points for this course.

By now we know ‘all’ about reading: Anglo-American reading research has proved it that children will only then become active, critical and live-long readers when they have experienced the pleasure of reading, of sharing meaning with others once in their own childhood – at school, in extra-curricular activities or at home. To make sense of words and pictures, to decode texts and images and relate them to each other, to construct meaning on various levels – all this is ‘reading’ in the sense of a cultural technique. Moreover, these faculties lay an important foundation for the development of the child’s personality. Therefore there’s no time to lose to initiate kids into that area of emotional and intellectual enrichment and psychological empowerment. Let’s make an early start! The course answers the long-felt need of more guidance of future teachers of English (Primarstufe; Schwerpunkt Grundschule) in making sensible choices of suitable texts. Furthermore, we will explore various ways of how to use them in the Primary English classroom. In doing so we will go beyond pure reading, i.e. include activities linked to the stories as well. The aim is to encourage children to read at all, to stimulate a positive future reading behaviour and to encourage them to keep on reading in the years to come. The course has a practical focus, but of course some essential theoretical presuppositions will have to be provided through dealing with issues such as reading research, the semiotics of the picture book, techniques of story-telling, the history and technology of book illustration and graphic design, the didactics of primary school teaching, pedagogical principles of the use of picture books in the Primary English Classroom, and approaches to multi- and interculturality. Knowledge and competencies in those areas will help you to make better choices, to judge competently and to use picture books with a sure eye for the quality of the picture-word-interaction and its possible effects on young learners of English.

14

The books chosen will cover a broad range of topics and subjects and involve a whole variety of illustrating styles. Most of them will be available in the Handapparat. It is desirable, however, that you also purchase some of them. The bibliography for the course is contained in the ‘Reader’. Try to bring it along to the very first session (available through the Internet and the Copyshop). During the course, various work forms will be tried out which will be explained at the beginning. The students’ major contributions will be done in the form of project work in teams to be presented during the seminar (and to be finalised in a written version). Please note that the number of participants will be limited to 30. Please enrol on a list on Tuesday, July 11, and Wednesday, July 12, 2006 at my personal notice board (room 3.210).

The seminar aims at providing resources and ideas for teaching literature and movies in the German school context. We will be looking at the theoretical background to reading and movie comprehension, but we will also be dealing with many specific examples of novels and movies which could be or are used in EFL teaching. The novels and/or movies we will be focusing on include: David Almond's Kit's Wildnerness, Gloria Miklowitz's War Between the Classes, Louis Sachar's Holes, C.S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Robert Westall's Gulf, Frances Hodgson Burnett's The Secret Garden, and Philip Pullman's The Golden Compass. To get maximum pleasure and benefit from this class, students should read widely and participate actively. The ews website for this seminar will be available at the end of term.

In this course we will explore theoretical concepts and practical ways of working along the lines of the task-based approach. Task-based language learning and teaching is an approach to the design of language courses in which the point of departure is not an ordered list of linguistic items, but a collection of topics and tasks. Tasks provide a meaningful purpose for the use and learning of a language. In this seminar we will scrutinize

• different concepts of task in applied linguistics; • practical approaches to task-based learning and teaching in regular EFL and bilingual classes; • different course books;

There will be a focus on developing appropriate tasks for various teaching scenarios in the regular EFL and the bilingual classroom. Requirements for a /Schein/ will be announced in the first session. A reader will be made available at the UniCenter CopyShop by the beginning of the semester.

We will examine the scope of SLA research and discuss what language teachers may gain from understanding research reports. The sessions will focus on research questions, methodology, quantitative and qualitative research paradigms, settings, instrumentation and research in the EFL-classroom. The ultimate goal of the seminar is to enable you to critically evaluate and review research reports in journals such as Applied Linguistics, Applied Psycholinguistics, IRAL (International Review of Applied Linguistics), Language Learning, Studies in Second Language Acquisition and Second Language Research. A quick scan of the chapters in “An Introduction to Second Language Acquisition Research” by Diane Larsen-Freeman and Michael H. Long (1991, New York, NY: Longman, UB: C 16639, BSP: SED 480/76) may help you decide whether or not the range of topics in this seminar are fascinating enough to spark your interest. Credit will be given on the basis of regular attendance, active participation in class and your written contributions to a portfolio of material on one area of second language research which is to be compiled by the end of the seminar (11 November) in cooperative groups.

The lecture offers a survey of important developments in the literary history of Great Britain in the seventeenth century. Historically it covers the time of the late Elizabethan / Jacobean age, the English Revolution, and the Restoration / the Augustan Age. The course relates to major and representative authors such as John Donne, Ben Jonson, Francis Bacon, John Milton, John Bunyan and John Dryden and their main works. It includes textual examples from poetry, fiction, prose, and drama. Special emphasis will be placed on significant developments in the Jacobean and the Restoration theatre. Early female achievements in the field are exemplified by the career and works of Aphra Behn. The course discusses influential literary movements and cultural-historical periods such as Metaphysical Poetry or Neo-Classicism. It deals with historical, aesthetic and theoretical issues significant for the literature of that time and today’s interpretations of them. A ‘Reader’ will be available through the internet and the ‘Copyshop’. It will be needed from the first session on and will be used in all the sessions.

The lecture introduces participants to major issues of literary criticism, literary history, genre poetics, and textual analysis. The exemplary texts of primary literature (poetry, fiction, drama) are chosen from different historical periods mainly of British literature. The focus of analysis and interpretation practised in the course is on the participants’ watching, documenting and critically assessing their own reading behaviour through studying the effects of narrative structures and strategies on themselves as readers. As a result, the competencies in selecting adequate critical approaches for analysis and interpretation are trained and improved. The sections on fiction and drama include video presentations. The ‘Reader’ for the course is available through the internet and the ‘Copyshop’ (ready in the last week prior to the start of the course). It will be needed from the first session on and will be used in all the sessions. Students are expected to study the material relating to the respective session prior to the weekly meetings. The question(s) for the response paper are contained in the ‘Reade’ as well, so students can work on this task from the very beginning of the course. The presuppositions for passing the course successfully are a regular and active participation.

The course introduces students to literary theory and criticism, genre poetics and textual analysis. The relevance of the various critical approaches will invariably be tested by means of their application to primary texts from various genres (poetry, fiction, and drama) and different historical epochs. We shall be reading exemplary texts by English and Irish authors, among them William Shakespeare, William Wordsworth, Jane Austen, Wilfred Owen, E.M. Forster, Virginia Woolf, David Herbert Lawrence, and James Joyce. The complexity of modern drama and theatre will be exemplified through a discussion of Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire (1947). Another reading will be Don’t Look Now (1970) by Daphne du Maurier. This will help us adopt a critical attitude towards literary criticism. Rumour has it that Mrs du Maurier belongs to the genre of “pulp fiction”. But some voices also hold that this short novel is a masterpiece of a modern gothic (or better: fantastic?) tale. This contrast will certainly encourage us to come up with our own ideas.

Team work activities are an integral part of the course because to share meaning and understanding with other participants deepens our reading process. If time permits, creative writing activities and likewise some acting in connection with selected primary texts will be included in order to increase the participants’ awareness of the creative character of interpretation itself. Last but not least students will learn how to write a scholarly and also elegant English essay. They will discover essential differences between German, British and American conventions of essay-writing. Some exercises for improving one’s idiomatic style will help to give the participants’ English a more “English” ring.

Referring to Ireland, the time between 1890 and 1920 has been given many names: 'Irish Revival', 'Irish Renaissance', 'Celtic Revival', to name but the most prominent. Although their names and connotations may differ, these movements were all formed during that particular era shortly before Irish independence from Britain when Irish identity, literature and culture were profoundly influenced by debates about Irish language and landscape, history and politics. In our seminar, we will shed some light on the complex British-Irish relationships, talk about historical backgrounds and prominent persons who shaped their times as well as about the Irish Literary and Dramatic Movements – and we will, of course, read poetry and plays (among others by Lady Gregory, W.B. Yeats and J.M. Synge). A Reader for this seminar will be available at the copy shop by the beginning of the semester.

By now we know ‘all’ about reading: Anglo-American reading research has proved it that children will only then become active, critical and live-long readers when they have experienced the pleasure of reading, of sharing meaning with others once in their own childhood – at school, in extra-curricular activities or at home. To make sense of words and pictures, to decode texts and images and relate them to each other, to construct meaning on various levels – all this is ‘reading’ in the sense of a cultural technique. Moreover, these faculties lay an important foundation for the development of the child’s personality. Therefore there’s no time to lose to initiate kids into that area of emotional and intellectual enrichment and psychological empowerment. Let’s make an early start! The course answers the long-felt need of more guidance of future teachers of English (Primarstufe; Schwerpunkt Grundschule) in making sensible choices of suitable texts. Furthermore, we will explore various ways of how to use them in the Primary English classroom. In doing so we will go beyond pure reading, i.e. include activities linked to the stories as well. The aim is to encourage children to read at all, to stimulate a positive future reading behaviour and to encourage them to keep on reading in the years to come. The course has a practical focus, but of course some essential theoretical presuppositions will have to be provided through dealing with issues such as reading research, the semiotics of the picture book, techniques of story-telling, the history and technology of book illustration and graphic design, the didactics of primary school teaching, pedagogical principles of the use of picture books in the Primary English Classroom, and approaches to multi- and interculturality. Knowledge and competencies in those areas will help you to make better choices, to judge competently and to use picture books with a sure eye for the quality of the picture-word-interaction and its possible effects on young learners of English. The books chosen will cover a broad range of topics and subjects and involve a whole variety of illustrating styles. Most of them will be available in the Handapparat. It is desirable, however, that you also purchase some of them. The bibliography for the course is contained in the ‘Reader’. Try to bring it along to the very first session (available through the Internet and the Copyshop). During the course, various work forms will be tried out which will be explained at the beginning. The students’ major contributions will be done in the form of project work in teams to be presented during the seminar (and to be finalised in a written version). Please note that the number of participants will be limited to 30. Please enrol on a list on Tuesday, July 11, and Wednesday, July 12, 2006 at my personal notice board (room 3.210). 154207 The Life and Works of Sir Winston Churchill (2 PS) Mo 16:15 – 17:45 R. 3.208 b Holst

Not only is Sir Winston Churchill (1874-1965) regarded as the greatest British leader of the 20th century but he also was a prolific writer throughout his life. During his lifetime as a soldier, author and politician he left the legacy of an impressive number of publications and as a wartime Prime Minister his radio speeches strengthened the nation’s determination to win the war. Churchill’s works include writings on family history such as the biographies of his father, autobiographical work about his experiences during Britain’s imperial wars in India and Africa and most importantly works of narrative history about the First and Second World War which earned him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1953. As well as his many political achievements it was his personality which made a lasting impression on people as his optimism was catching and his ability to inspire those he encountered was legendary. He also possessed great wit and

22

chuckling humour apparent in the following response he gave to Lady Astor who told him, "If you were my husband, I'd put poison in your tea." If I were your husband, I’d drink it!” Students in this seminar will strengthen their skills at analysing historical writing and oratory by using literary terminology and will also gain extensive knowledge about Churchill’s role as a political leader in an historical context. A written final exam will be administered at the end of the semester. The required reading for this seminar can be found in our departmental library in the “Semesterhandapparat” at the beginning of the semester. 154208 Shakespeare on Film (2 PS) Block 12.02.2007 –

This seminar will look at the way Shakespeare has been adapted for the screen, particularly by classic directors. In doing so, we will be learning about the limits and opportunities of this adaptation process and will hopefully arrive at a better understanding of the play under scrutiny and of the nature of film itself. The seminar will focus on Brook’s King Lear, Loncraine’s Richard III, and Welles’s Chimes at Midnight, but other plays will be on the agenda.. . Please note that this seminar will now take place as a Blockseminar between 12.02.2007-16.02.2007, R.3.208b.

Who is presented as an outsider in English Literature? Has he opted out or been rejected by society, how is he treated, how does he cope? The reasons why somebody is not accepted or even excluded have changed considerably through the centuries so that an outsider of the Elizabethan age might be perfectly integrated today. In some cases there is an obvious genetic, social, moral, or cultural explanation of his isolation, but there may also be more subtle or complex causes. We shall study representative examples from 1592 to the present time and relate them to their cultural and literary context. Incidentally we shall consider the question why the author has selected this particular example and what is his attitude to the protagonist. Has he written a social study or a cautionary tale with a cathartic aim? What is the reader's response? This will allow us to understand more about the correlations between the individual and society, and between literature and society. Changes in literary technique also reflect these relations and their evolution. While we are analysing specific examples, we will relate them to the cultural context of their time and to the general development of the theme in the history of literature.

The course serves the diverse functions of preparation for the different phases and requirements of Staatsexamen (for students of Lehramt according to the old regulations). The focus is on the reading lists, “Arbeit unter Aufsicht” (Klausur), and the oral examination. Above all the course offers assistance in expanding and intensifying the candidates’ literary knowledge and skills in the fields of literary history, theory, criticism, genre poetics, and textual analysis. Furthermore, it guides the participants in finalising their reading lists and gives advice on matters of organisation as well as on important psychological aspects of the different examination parts. Work in the course is organised in the form of plenary meetings of all candidates, small group meetings on special subjects as well as individual consultations. The course comprises information units, preparatory work by the candidates, and discussions of written and oral examination strategies. Besides, candidates have ample opportunity to establish contacts with other participants and arrange for extra-curricular work in individual teams. For those who are advanced enough in their preparation by the end of the course a voluntary mock exam is offered.

Potential participants are asked to enrol by

Wednesday, July 12, 2006

at the latest. To do so, please see me during one of my office hours and hand in a list with your name and the chosen ‘Teilgebiete’ and ‘Schwerpunkte’. Get a copy of my ‘Guidelines for Reading Lists’ from the personal notice-board next to my room and start work on your reading lists in time. The ‘Reader’ “Introduction to British Literary Studies” is meant to assist you in your course work. It is available through the internet and the ‘Copyshop’. Additionally, there are special scripts on B2, B3, and B5 on the homepage of the institute (‘fächerübergreifende Materialien’).

(This seminar is an additional offer in the field of British literature. It being a Hauptseminar, the usual conditions for membership apply.) The topic was chosen for various reasons. This year is the centenary of Beckett's, the nobel prize-winner's, birth. Students of English should be familiar with the work and life of this great writer. Beckett was Irish and the background of his early years plays an enormous role in many of his works, but, writing in at least two languages, his international and universal outlook proved to be more important than his nationality. In spite of

24

his deceptively clear style the majority of his works are difficult and can even be offputting. This will make the task of the seminar a true challenge. We shall, together, bite our teeth into the chosen texts. We shall deal only cursorily with his novels ("Murphy", "Molloy", "Malone Dies", "The Unnamable", "Watt") and concentrate on the best known plays ("Waiting for Godot", "Krapp's Last Tape", "Happy Days". "Endgame"). Our method will be primarily a close reading of the text and a pooling of insights. Hopefully we shall also have a chance to watch, on DVD, performances of the plays mentioned and a number of shorter pieces. The basis for our dealing with Beckett's texts will be the English versions, no matter in which language he wrote them originally. (Knowledge of French, though, will prove to be advantageous, of course). I have my own difficulties with Beckett, the increasing reduction of his esthetics and his world view, but I look forward to discussing this important writer with the members of the seminar.

Referring to Ireland, the time between 1890 and 1920 has been given many names: 'Irish Revival', 'Irish Renaissance', 'Celtic Revival', to name but the most prominent. Although their names and connotations may differ, these movements were all formed during that particular era shortly before Irish independence from Britain when Irish identity, literature and culture were profoundly influenced by debates about Irish language and landscape, history and politics. In our seminar, we will shed some light on the complex British-Irish relationships, talk about historical backgrounds and prominent persons who shaped their times as well as about the Irish Literary and Dramatic Movements – and we will, of course, read poetry and plays (among others by Lady Gregory, W.B. Yeats and J.M. Synge). A Reader for this seminar will be available at the copy shop by the beginning of the semester.

Diversity has been a growing issue for disciplines working the fields of culture and nature for decades. The notion that homogeneity of systems is a myth more often than not emerged even before the advent of postmodernism and its claim that culture becomes ever more fragmented. But also biology and other natural sciences have been confronted with the facts of diversity of species, organisms, elements, etc. At first sight, it seems as if diversity was only a term shared coincidentally by so many scholars from divergent fields. But there is more behind the common usage of this term than merely its easy adoption for phenomena of divergence, or differentiation. Students and scholars have adopted diversity as a term to identify and qualify their subject matter; they have adopted a new perspective on their field. In the 20th century, structuralist theory suggested that difference is set at the root of meaning, however sign systems of all sorts were still perceived as evincing strong structural integrity. The shock of postmodernism rests in the realization of a set of crises, one of which emerged from the naïve perspective on systemic integrity. With the rise of the notions of hybridity and divergence, a new research paradigm has been in the making which now gains more and more ground in the humanities and the sciences. From diverse ecospheres to fuzzy logic, the multiple shades and facets of divergent elements within systems and their influence as part of biospheres and semiospheres has been moved to the centre of investigation. The enhanced awareness about diversity also results in a newly developed and adopted set of research methods that gain interdisciplinary importance. The value of in-field empirical research has gained new significance, such as ethnographic methodology in culture-related research projects, or journalism. Some examples for this common research paradigm in different disciplines are mirrored in the themes and topics of discussion of this seminar:

• Majority and minority issues in modern societies; minorities, otherness, and periphery • Migration and the background of hybrid cultures • Biological diversity bound to the life cycles of beings, species, and the individual Umwelt of the

organism • Life, as a difference that makes a difference • From the interpersonal to the interspecific. Identity and diversity across individuals, groups,

communities, cultures and species • Diversity in main trends and sub-currents of the arts and literature • Diversity in discourse and speech communities • Diversity in a world of globalization • Diversity as a fundamental systemic characteristic • Challenges in semiotic research: can semioticians produce theoretical tools to properly deal with

these issues? This lecture program is combined with the international congress “Diversity” (www.diversity.uni-dortmund.de), which will be held in Dortmund from 24.-26.11.2006. Organisation Die Veranstaltung findet in englischer Sprache statt. Es wird jeweils zunächst wird eine Einführung in ein Thema als Vorlesung gegeben, danach findet ein praxisorientiertes Proseminar statt. Eine Lektüreliste und ein Reader werden zur Verfügung gestellt. Zur Anmeldung müssen interessierte Studierende sich auf der Internetseite www.semiotik.fb15.uni-dortmund.de anmelden.

Lately, film noir has become one of the most discussed genres in American film studies. Some critics even call it a movement, pointing to the fact that it "emerged from a period of political instability: 1941-58, the time of the Second World War and the Cold War." (S. Hayward, Cinema Studies: The Key Concepts, 128). The seminar will start with the hard-boiled tradition in detective fiction. We will also watch popular gangster movies in the noir tradition and read the central theories about film noir. Last but not least we will deal with recent examples of so-called post-noir films from the 1990s. The attendance of late Tuesday evening film sessions is required. 154608 Religious Culture in the United States (2 PS)

This course, carrying the subtitle of “Religion and Transnational America, from the 17th Century up to the Present,” offers an interdisciplinary study of American history and culture through the lens of religion. The course is divided into four units: (1) Historical Background of American Religious Culture, (2) Religion and Literature, (3) Religion and the Arts, and (4) Religion and Politics. Students will be invited to study these topics through a variety of sources such as novels, poems, paintings, music, political documents and scholarly essays. This course explores American religious history and culture in a transnational context. It involves an examination of American nation-building within the framework of the interaction between Christianity and the European Enlightenment, an emphasis on America’s multi-ethnic population, and comparison of religious tolerance in the United States and in other countries. The requirements for the course include writing three short analytical papers, regular class participation, and, where applicable, a final in-class exam. These assignments will allow students to practice close-reading and synthesizing of the texts. A reader will be made available at the beginning of the class.

In this seminar we will explore a highly promising, new American narrative voice, Myla Golderg. Her critically acclaimed novel The Spelling Bee (2000), has recently been screened in U.S. movie theatres, staring, amongst others, Richard Gere. Whereas film adaptations of novels are no novelty, Myla Goldberg has tapped into a larger realm of a remediation of her writings. In addition to her audio work as a musician, her most recent book Wickett’s Remedy (2005) also exists as an audio book. We will talk about the media change in US publishing and listen to and discuss parts of the nine audio CDs Wickett’s Remedy. This book deals with history’s most lethal influenza virus, which we will compare to excerpts of John Barry’s book The Great Influence as well as to current texts about the Avian Flue, such as The Bird Flue.Preparedness Planner. The main purpose of this seminar will be to critically investigate Myla Goldberg’s thematically diverse work and to contextualize her within contemporary U.S. writing. The seminar format will be largely based on group discussions, group projects and written reviews. Readings (please order these books as soon as possible): The Spelling Bee (2000), Time's Magpie. A Walk in Prague (2004), Wickett's Remedy (2005). Audio material and an additional reader covering all other texts will be available at the beginning of the semester. 154610 From Birth of a Nation to Fahrenheit 9/11: Approaches to America Through Film (2 PS) Di 14:15 – 15:45

This seminar will explore continuities and discontinuities in the constructions of America in film. During the semester, we will examine three overlapping areas: 1. cinematic approaches to the history of America, 2. the representation of American myths such as the American dream, the South, and the frontier, 3. American identities (with a special focus on race, ethnicity, and gender). The films to be analyzed range from classics like David Griffith’s Birth of a Nation (1915), David O. Selznick’s epic Gone with the Wind (1939) and John Ford’s Western The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962) to well-

30

known films by Michael Moore and Woody Allen, to less popular but culturally significant movies, for example the New Black Cinema of the 1980s and 1990s. Requirements for this class are regular course attendance, reading all assigned materials, handing in written assignments on time, and active participation including the viewing of all films and keeping a running journal in which you take notes on each of the films we watch. This journal has to be handed several times. All the films selected will be shown in extra sessions (Monday, 16:00-18:00). A reader with additional material on these films and their cultural context as well as introductory texts on cinematic devices (from David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson, Film Art) will be available at the Copyshop at the beginning of the semester.

In this course we will focus on the idea of the human and its relationship to technology. Using both primarily American and German texts and films, this intercultural course hopes to challenge specific ontological foundations of the human. With the help of our authors, we will investigate the nature of creativity, media, music, dreams, gender, love, and violence as well as other themes. We will ask how our works reflect these themes through technology and machines to raise questions about our own humanity. Some of the authors and theorists we will want to read are Büchner, Goethe, Kittler, Wittgenstein, Wolf, Dick, McLuhan, Vonnegut, and Wiener. Possible films are Metropolis, Blade Runner, and Ghost in the Shell.

The concept of family is central to all animated movies of the Disney company. But is this idea of family the only reason why Disney is so successful? Today, Disney is not only one of the global leading entertainment companies, but has as well become a trade mark and social concept of its own. What stands behind the cultural phenomena Disney and what makes it so appealing to people all over the world from its very beginnings until today? After getting an overview of the Disney company, its structure and history, the course will analyze Disney movies from different decades and discuss aspects of race and gender in the historical context of the movies as well as political and historical references which might not always be clear. The course will as well have a closer look at the theme parks in USA, Europe and Asia and discuss if they differ and what cultural aspects

31

may be the reason for existing differences. Does Disney work as an American cultural product only or is it becoming more and more a global project? To pass this class regular attendance, thorough preparation, and active participation are expected. Students have to hand in a reading journal regularly, present some of their research to the class and, where applicable, write a paper at the end of the semester. A reader will be made available in the first session. Iris Aya-Lämmerhirt is working towards her doctorate in American Studies at Universität Bochum.

This course offers an introduction to the use of cinema and film studies as a tool to look at culture. Both Germany and the U.S. have made major contributions to cinema, in ways both different and related, and over the semester we will examine films where Germany and the U.S. in some way meet or overlap. This dual-nation approach will allow for comparison between the films we watch, and the countries and people who produced them. Themes in this course may include: classics of German and American cinema; German-speaking directors working in Hollywood; portrayals of Americans in German film and Germans in American film; adaptation (fiction to film); (film) history; and genre (noir). Students do not need to have prior experience in film studies to take this course; rather, as a class we will examine the issues each film raises. The films we will view and discuss include: A Foreign Affaire (d. Billy Wilder, 1948); Der amerikanische Freund (r. Wim Wenders, 1977); M (r. Fritz Lang, 1931); M (d. Joseph Losey, 1951); The Trial (d. Orson Wells, 1962); Der Prinz und der Bettelknabe (r. Alexander Korda [Sandor Kellner] 1920); Letter from an Unknown Woman (d. Max Ophüls, 1948); TBA (selected by students). Eugene Sampson is an exchange Lektor from University of Iowa.

Cities are often described as places in which different cultures – manifested, for instance, in food, music, languages, habits, religions – come together. Sometimes these cultures mingle, sometimes they remain more or less separate. By some people this abundance is considered a wealth, others feel lost in an incomprehensible multitude. We will look at the ways in which people are influenced by their urban surroundings, and in which those surroundings are influenced by its inhabitants. This is a project seminar in which participants have to create two major texts. The first one deals with a specific urban place and can be fictional or non-fictional – your creativity sets the limits. The second, rather scientific text is a reflection on your first work. In the first part of this block seminar we will read texts and

From plows to cutting-edge computers, technology has always had a significant function in American culture. Technological innovations of individuals such as Thomas A. Edison, Henry Ford or Bill Gates, but also the achievements of people like Charles A. Lindbergh or the crew of Apollo 11, have been considered milestones of technological excellence. However, these individual events need to be analyzed from a much broader perspective, which includes, for instance, the development towards these events and what followed afterwards. Furthermore this raises the question of whether the masters of technology have entered a stage in which they themselves are mastered by technology. Is it possible that a culture with cutting-edge technology turns out to be unable to act and think without the help of precisely these technological innovations? To analyze the development of technology and its impact on everyday life we will look at a wide range of texts, such as fictional and non-fictional literature, movies, TV shows, music etc. A reader will be made available at the beginning of the semester.

The question of how to read texts from the past today without imposing categories alien to the text’s own historical context is one that is of central relevance to the study of any culture. And the distance to this “past” can range from thousands of years to just a few. In the final analysis, we are already removed from the day that has just passed by an unbridgeable gulf of difference; the act of reading always urges to stretch across this gulf. In this class, we will explore the question of cultural difference and race as we can read it through this distance and to make the texts present to us now. We will read texts that span time distances either because they speak to the present moment in a new way, such as Herman Melville’s “Benito Cereno” (1855) and Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952), or because they reach back into the past to give it new meaning as cultural memory, such as Charles Johnson’s Middle Passage (1990) and Philip Roth’s alternate history The Plot Against America (2004). Before the semester, please buy the three novels and read at least two of them. A reading packet with additional material will be available by the beginning of the semester. Please note that the seminar begins with an introductory session on Nov. 24 (12:15- 13:30) and will meet in double sessions (12:15- 15:45) after that.

This seminar deals with the origins and current state of the art of new journalism. Starting with texts (mostly for magazines) in the 1960s by Gay Talese, Tom Wolfe, Hunter S. Thompson and others, we will distill what is distinctive about them and why they caused such enthusiasm and caustic criticism alike. We will follow how writers and text forms developed into a school, into books - both fiction and non-fiction - and into a cult. The genre seems to have disappeared, but more likely it was just transformed by a subsequent generation of writers and may even reappear - there is justified talk of a new new journalism. Bonus track: Parallel to the subjective school of new journalism, the Great American Novel has been in the making for more than thirty years – it's also non-fiction, it also takes great liberties, and it's not a book! Welcome to Doonesbury. Exact information on readings will be made available to registered participants.

The Reconstruction Era has been called the epoch that most Americans want to forget. Yet historical novels keep coming back to those turbulent years after the Civil War, telling passionate stories of freedom and failure, reconciliation and revenge. These novels, many of them national bestsellers, suggest that this was a period that Americans can not quite forget, to the contrary. Albion W. Tourgée’s reformist tale A Fool’s Errand (1879), Thomas Dixon’s racist diatribe The Clansman (1905), Margaret Walker’s neo-slave narrative Jubilee (1966), and Alice Randall recent parody The Wind Done Gone (2001) recast the Reconstruction as a key reference point that continues to matter whenever Americans face new challenges in the ongoing negotiations of race, class, gender, and regional differences. In this course, we will read some of the most prominent Reconstruction novels and explore how they reinterpret the past, how their versions of history challenge America’s officially sanctioned cultural memory, and what their stories, for all their striking ideological differences, have in common. As texts that address issues of racial equality, education, class solidarity, women’s economic independence, and terrorism squarely in the framework of American culture in crisis, these novels also invite us to discuss the defining power of American utopias – utopias whose complexity and ambivalence surface with particular clarity during moments of major historical upheaval. Required texts: The novels by Tourgée, Dixon, and Walker will be available in the copyshop in mid-July, Randall’s novel can be ordered at your local bookstore for about 10.50 €. During the semester, we will also watch the film versions of Margaret Mitchell’s Gone With the Wind (1936; 1939) and Howard Fast’s Freedom Road (1944; 1979). 154619 The World´s Eye: Ralph Waldo Emerson (2 HS) Do 12:00 – 13:30 Hauert 12a Grünzweig

The “Ethnic detective” is a term coined by Paderborn Amerikanist Peter Freese. Based on his account of the multicultural crime story, we will discuss several U.S. “ethnic” crime novels and then compare them to a prominent German/European representative – namely the novels of Veit Heinichen, a German-born writer living in Trieste. The object of this comparative seminar will be, among other tasks, to investigate the contributions of this genre to an understanding of the contemporary multethnic societies. Students wanting to prepare the course may start doing so by reading the first three Commissario Laurenti novels by Veit Heinichen, Gib jedem seinen eigenen Tod (2001), Die Toten vom Karst (2002) and Der Tod wirft lange Schatten (2005). They make for great vacation reading. More information also at http://www.veit-heinichen.de/index.html.

Around 1900 notions of American masculinities changed considerably, and literature, film, and the arts contributed to the new discourses about men. In this course, we will analyze realist, naturalist, and early modernist texts which present white, black, and immigrant masculinities in crisis. We will explore what kind of masculinities (and, correspondingly, what kind of femininities) literary and visual texts demonized, celebrated, and constructed. We will read about and watch men in doubt, monstrous men, bold boys, and idealized workmen, effeminate as well as hard male bodies. In addition to the fictional texts, students will be required to read men's studies and queer studies texts (Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, Judith Halberstam, R. W. Connell).

Literary texts by African American authors reach audiences of all ages and ethnicities as they tackle the most diverse genres, styles and subject matter. The critic Madhu Dubey stresses that “because of the history of slavery, African Americans have long occupied a peculiar position, at once inside and outside the discourses and formations of modernity, and have therefore been uniquely predisposed to reflect critically on the grand narratives of the modern West.” The seminar will have a look at the way African American authors approach and possibly change popular genres of today. We will discuss science fiction and detective novels, the gay novel, and examples of the ethnic bildungsroman as well as the travel narrative by both men and women writers.

Daniel Aaron, a pioneer of American Studies, has said that Upton Sinclair was sui generis—a creative writer who turned his great talent toward political activism for much of his career, then recovered his original literary aims late in his life with a series of laudable historical novels. Anthony Arthur’s new biography, Radical Innocent: Upton Sinclair, will be issued in June, 2006, Random House, and early reviews have praised it as “a well-researched, balanced and fascinating portrait” (Publisher’s Weekly) and “an immensely readable biography” (Kirkus). The course sets forth the primary reasons for Sinclair’s influence during the first half of the twentieth century, drawing from his own biography and especially from Sinclair’s key texts. It is divided into four parts, each consisting of four 90-minute sessions except for the first, which will be three sessions. The main topics will be “Art or Propaganda” (centering on The Jungle, 1906), “Journalism and the Public Welfare” (main text The Brass Check, 1920); “Literature and Social Justice” (Mammonart, 1925; and Money Writes!, 1927); “Truth and Fiction in the Historical Novel” (The Return of Lanny Budd, 1953). Anthony Arthur’s book will be required reading. Professor Anthony Arthur will be visitor to Dortmund on a Fulbright Senior Specialist grant. A former professor of American literature at California State University, Northridge, he resides in Los Angeles. Seminar meetings will be: Thu., 2 Nov., 18-19:30; Fri. 3, 10, 17 Nov. 16-19; Mon. 6, 13, 20, 27 Nov. 18-21.
