Für weitere Informationen zum Kommentar, zur Literatur und zum Leistungsnachweis klicken Sie bitte oben auf den Link"Kommentar".This is the second part of a two-course module which lays the groundwork for all further coursework in linguistics. In thissecond part of the module, participants will learn about aspects of syntax, i.e. how phrases, clauses, and sentences areformed, and how to apply these to new examples and, ideally, analyze examples of actual language use themselves by -excerpting the relevant knowledge from course-specific slidecasts and additional literature on the basis of guiding questions,- testing their understanding by applying their newly acquired knowledge to exercise questions, - clarifying questions inclass, and - completing assignments, which also include an application task, for each subtopic in order to later be able touse these skills in the advanced linguistics courses in their BA and MA studies. Notice: For the teacher training BA program(Studienordnung WS 13/14) and the new BA program (Studienordnung WS 15/16), this course together with Introductionto Synchronic Linguistics, Part I forms the Basic Module in Linguistics (BM-Lin). The module ends with a final written examof 180 minutes comprising the contents of Parts I and II. For students of all other study programs, this course will be thesecond part of the Grundmodul Linguistik (GLin). Students in these study programs will have to write a final written exam of90 minutes each at the end of Part I, Part II, and Part III. You may attend this course in parallel with part I. Please note theamount of work you will have to do for both these courses, though.

Note: For groups 1 and 3, the class will be blended, i.e. students will study both online and in class.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The course presents an introduction to the history of the English language and following the progression of the languagefrom Germanic to Old, Middle and Modern English, it aims at imparting a better understanding of questions such as: Whatare the linguistic roots of English? Why are there similarities and differences between German and English? How did thepronunciation and the sound system change from Old to Modern English? Why has English lost most of its inflections? Howwas the English vocabulary expanded during its history? Why do we have different varieties of English today? You will learnabout those language changes that shaped up Present Day English and contributed to a number of its curiosities such as thesystem of tenses or the discrepancy between spelling and pronunciation - one of the major difficulties for ESL students.

In the historical course of its linguistic expansion, the English language has been taken to the most remote areas of the world,yielding a multitude of countries where English is spoken as a native or second language nowadays. However, being spokenin different places and by different groups of people, English has undergone a considerable global variation (e.g., in terms ofphonology, lexical choice, and morphosyntax) and, thus, has developed into different 'World Englishes.'

This seminar will focus in particular on smaller, lesser-known varieties of English. After a theoretical introduction to relevantbasic concepts and issues in dialectology and sociolinguistics, students will comparatively examine—and present in class atthe end of the semester—both the current sociolinguistic situation as well as peculiar linguistic features of a variety of theirchoice.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The seminar will examine the phonological, morphological, syntactic and lexical-semantic features of Early Modern English,i.e. of the language and its development between 1500 and 1750. This is the time when for instance Shakespeare or Miltonwrote their works. This is also the time when an English standard developed and when the Renaissance had an importantimpact on the development of the English vocabulary. Based on the reading and analysis of Early Modern English texts, theseminar will not only focus on the enrichment and change of the vocabulary, but also examine important sound changes inthat period (last but not least the famous Tudor Vowel Shift) and discuss morphological and syntactic peculiarities (such asLucilla hir company, etc.) and finally investigate the development of varieties of English.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course considers Irish English, also known as Hiberno-English. English was first introduced to Ireland in the twelfthcentury and then again in the seventeenth century, making Irish English the oldest form of colonial English. Irish, the languageof Ireland since earliest times, was replaced by English as the language of the majority in the nineteenth century. Thecharacteristic Irish accents and lexis reflect earlier English as well as the influence of Irish. This course will describe thecurrent linguistic situation in Ireland, in particular recent developments. It will also consider the historical development of IrishEnglish and the influences in its development, in particular those of Irish. We will also look at the decline of Irish, the languageof the majority population at the start of the nineteenth century but now confined more or less to pockets along the westernseaboard. It is recommended that students taking this course have already attended the two-semester introductory modulesIntroduction to Synchronic Linguistics and the lecture series Introduction to the History of English.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading. How do speakers express meanings through language? To study the meaning of words, sentences and utterances,this course will be devoted to two major topics: 1) Semantics as the study of the relationship between language units and theirmeaning and 2) Pragmatics as the study of actual language use in interaction (Cummins & Griffiths, 2016). Building on thediscussion of lexical semantics as introduced in Introduction to Synchronic Linguistics Part I, we will revisit sense relations andlook at different parts of speech and their meanings in English. The second part of the course will introduce pragmatic theories(e.g. Gricean maxims, Relevance Theory, Speech Act Theory) and examine how speakers use and hearers understandutterances in context. Prerequisites: Successful completion of the Grund-/Basismodul, depending on your study program

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Morphology, in linguistics, is the study of the internal construction of words and the processes behind the formation of newwords. Speakers of a language know a lot about the internal structure of words (e.g., fly-ing, be-en) as well as regular waysof forming new words from existing ones (e.g., to answer – an answer starlet, or breakout star). This course is designedto improve your understanding of the structure of English words and the grammatical and lexical properties of the Englishlanguage. Seminar topics will include important theoretical issues in linguistic morphology such as the difference betweeninflexion and derivation, the notion of productivity, various types of word-formation processes, such as compounding,affixation, zero-derivation, backformation, clipping, blending, and acronyms, the relationship between word-formation andborrowing, both in a synchronic and diachronic perspective. Morphological analysis will be practised using English material.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course deals with those areas of linguistics concerned with the sounds of speech, namely, phonetics and phonology,and examines these topics, covered in the introductory seminar Introduction to Synchronic Linguistics, in greater detail.Transcription of British and American English will be practised with the aim of (i) familiarizing students with transcription usingthe IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) system and (ii) improving the ability to distinguish and describe phonetic information.In addition, non-standard varieties of English as well as examples from other languages will be used throughout the course.Under phonology we will discuss the function of sounds within the linguistic system. The most important and influentialmethods and theories of description will be reviewed. The phonological system of English will be considered and compared tothose of other languages and students will be presented with phonological data for analysis and evaluation.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course serves as an introduction to the linguistic description and analysis of language on the level of discourse. Whilebuilding on the knowledge acquired in the introductory module, we will move beyond the analysis of single, isolated and de-contextualised sentences. We will investigate how participants use language as a resource for communicating and interactingwith each other, for structuring and unifying discourse and for displaying social identity, beliefs and opinions. Furthermore,we will discuss the role of context and co-text for (fully) understanding any (written) text or (spoken) piece of discourse. Toachieve the learning outcome, students will be provided with, and expected to prepare, a selection of weekly readings as wellas worksheets. In the sessions, we will discuss central concepts from the material, but our focus will be on applying the theory.Regular hands-on analyses of genuine (written and spoken) English data will serve as preparation for the assessment.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course is intended as an introduction to detective fiction, one of the most recent and most popular sub-genres ofliterature. Students will read detective fiction alongside literary criticism, and there will also be examples of filmic adaptationsthat underline how the tropes and characters of detective fiction have disseminated into the landscape of popular culture. Theseminar will chart the inception of the genre in the nineteenth century through a reading of seminal texts by Edgar Allan Poeand Arthur Conan Doyle. It will then consider how detective fiction flourished in its so-called “Golden Age” of the 1920s and30s in Britain, made evident in the works of Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers. By looking at novels by Dashiell Hammett,Raymond Chandler, and Rudolph Fisher we will also discuss a specific American variant, the “hard-boiled” detective tradition.Because we will analyze a wide array of short stories and novels, as well as literary criticism, it should be noted that this is areading-intensive class with a very high workload.

This tendency reflects and reifies the history of colonialism which haseither underappreciated or exploited cultural artifacts from the former colonies. This seminar will discuss how the digitaltransformation raises postcolonial questions and will inquire whether the tools and methods of the digital humanities canindeed further the project of decolonization. We will explore postcolonial interventions of digital literature as well as reflectionsof the digital in contemporary postcolonial writing, born-digital artistic work as well as digital scholarship.

Kommentar

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.In this class we will explore the genre of autobiographic writing in the United States and its particular relation to identityformation – both individually and nationally. Life writing and its critique underwent significant changes during the 20th and21st century. From a marginal genre and a largely neglected field of research the autobiography evolved into the epitomeof contemporary “western” culture. We will trace this development focusing on the changing understanding of individualityand personhood that it represents. Most importantly we will focus on the uses of this autobiographic genre and its claims topersonhood in relation to marginalized groups in their struggle for recognition. Today, the rigid categories of the genre havebeen dissolved as it includes autobiographies, biographies, diaries, testimonies, and basically all forms of self narration andrepresentation. In this class we will therefore read traditional autobiographies as well as texts more broadly summarized as lifewriting.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The turn of the century saw the emergence of the spy novel as a new literary genre that has since developed into a lastingpart of British popular culture. Early works like Rudyard Kipling´s Kim (1901), Erskine Childers´ The Riddle of the Sands(1903) or Joseph Conrad´s The Secret Agent (1907) are now considered classic examples of early British espionage fiction.Not only written for the purpose of entertainment, these bestsellers are also testimonies of a turbulent era of change andchallenge, in which not only British national security and imperial rule but also social hierarchies and traditional gender rolesseemed in peril. The seminar will examine how the authors addressed common issues and fears that prevailed in Britainduring the Edwardian era and why spy novels gained such an immense popularity at the outset of the 20th century. It will alsoshow how their idealised depiction of espionage contrasted with the real work of British intelligence services at that time.

We will begin by considering the revival of Gothic themes in late-Victorianliterature, in texts such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). ArthurMachen’s The Great God Pan (1890) will be studied in the context of the fin-de-siècle, decadent literature and ‘weird fiction’and the ‘golden age’ of the ghost story is represented by Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ (1892) HenryJames’ The Turn of the Screw (1898), and stories by M.R. James, Lord Dunsany and Algernon Blackwood. Cinematicadaptations of several of these texts will be considered, and particular focus will be given to two early horror films produced inthe Weimar Republic: Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr Calgari (1920) and F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922). In the postwarera, the development of the figure of the zombie—already evident in Jacques Tourneur’s 1943 film I Walked with a Zombie,but developed in George Romero’s genre-defining Night of the Living Dead (1968) lead us towards the development of themodern horror film, as do two prototypical slasher films of 1960: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and Michael Powell’s PeepingTom. Alongside these works, we will examine key theoretical questions: what exactly are Gothic, horror, and the supernatural?How (and why) have these modes developed and changed in the first half of the twentieth century? What kind of relationshipsexist between these modes and the political, historical and cultural contexts of modernity? Such questions will be approachedvia secondary material by authors including Freud, S.L. Varnado, H.P. Lovecraft, and Julia Briggs.

In the historical course of its linguistic expansion, the English language has been taken to the most remote areas of the world,yielding a multitude of countries where English is spoken as a native or second language nowadays. However, being spokenin different places and by different groups of people, English has undergone a considerable global variation (e.g., in terms ofphonology, lexical choice, and morphosyntax) and, thus, has developed into different 'World Englishes.'

This seminar will focus in particular on smaller, lesser-known varieties of English. After a theoretical introduction to relevantbasic concepts and issues in dialectology and sociolinguistics, students will comparatively examine—and present in class atthe end of the semester—both the current sociolinguistic situation as well as peculiar linguistic features of a variety of theirchoice.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The seminar will examine the phonological, morphological, syntactic and lexical-semantic features of Early Modern English,i.e. of the language and its development between 1500 and 1750. This is the time when for instance Shakespeare or Miltonwrote their works. This is also the time when an English standard developed and when the Renaissance had an importantimpact on the development of the English vocabulary. Based on the reading and analysis of Early Modern English texts, theseminar will not only focus on the enrichment and change of the vocabulary, but also examine important sound changes inthat period (last but not least the famous Tudor Vowel Shift) and discuss morphological and syntactic peculiarities (such asLucilla hir company, etc.) and finally investigate the development of varieties of English.

To study the meaning of words, sentences and utterances,this course will be devoted to two major topics: 1) Semantics as the study of the relationship between language units and theirmeaning and 2) Pragmatics as the study of actual language use in interaction (Cummins & Griffiths, 2016). Building on thediscussion of lexical semantics as introduced in Introduction to Synchronic Linguistics Part I, we will revisit sense relations andlook at different parts of speech and their meanings in English. The second part of the course will introduce pragmatic theories(e.g. Gricean maxims, Relevance Theory, Speech Act Theory) and examine how speakers use and hearers understandutterances in context. Prerequisites: Successful completion of the Grund-/Basismodul, depending on your study program

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Morphology, in linguistics, is the study of the internal construction of words and the processes behind the formation of newwords. Speakers of a language know a lot about the internal structure of words (e.g., fly-ing, be-en) as well as regular waysof forming new words from existing ones (e.g., to answer – an answer starlet, or breakout star). This course is designedto improve your understanding of the structure of English words and the grammatical and lexical properties of the Englishlanguage. Seminar topics will include important theoretical issues in linguistic morphology such as the difference betweeninflexion and derivation, the notion of productivity, various types of word-formation processes, such as compounding,affixation, zero-derivation, backformation, clipping, blending, and acronyms, the relationship between word-formation andborrowing, both in a synchronic and diachronic perspective. Morphological analysis will be practised using English material.

The most important and influentialmethods and theories of description will be reviewed. The phonological system of English will be considered and compared tothose of other languages and students will be presented with phonological data for analysis and evaluation.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course considers Irish English, also known as Hiberno-English. English was first introduced to Ireland in the twelfthcentury and then again in the seventeenth century, making Irish English the oldest form of colonial English. Irish, the languageof Ireland since earliest times, was replaced by English as the language of the majority in the nineteenth century. Thecharacteristic Irish accents and lexis reflect earlier English as well as the influence of Irish. This course will describe thecurrent linguistic situation in Ireland, in particular recent developments. It will also consider the historical development of IrishEnglish and the influences in its development, in particular those of Irish. We will also look at the decline of Irish, the languageof the majority population at the start of the nineteenth century but now confined more or less to pockets along the westernseaboard. It is recommended that students taking this course have already attended the two-semester introductory modulesIntroduction to Synchronic Linguistics and the lecture series Introduction to the History of English.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course serves as an introduction to the linguistic description and analysis of language on the level of discourse. Whilebuilding on the knowledge acquired in the introductory module, we will move beyond the analysis of single, isolated and de-contextualised sentences. We will investigate how participants use language as a resource for communicating and interactingwith each other, for structuring and unifying discourse and for displaying social identity, beliefs and opinions. Furthermore,we will discuss the role of context and co-text for (fully) understanding any (written) text or (spoken) piece of discourse. Toachieve the learning outcome, students will be provided with, and expected to prepare, a selection of weekly readings as wellas worksheets. In the sessions, we will discuss central concepts from the material, but our focus will be on applying the theory.Regular hands-on analyses of genuine (written and spoken) English data will serve as preparation for the assessment.

This tendency reflects and reifies the history of colonialism which haseither underappreciated or exploited cultural artifacts from the former colonies. This seminar will discuss how the digitaltransformation raises postcolonial questions and will inquire whether the tools and methods of the digital humanities canindeed further the project of decolonization. We will explore postcolonial interventions of digital literature as well as reflectionsof the digital in contemporary postcolonial writing, born-digital artistic work as well as digital scholarship.

Life writing and its critique underwent significant changes during the 20th and21st century. From a marginal genre and a largely neglected field of research the autobiography evolved into the epitomeof contemporary “western” culture. We will trace this development focusing on the changing understanding of individualityand personhood that it represents. Most importantly we will focus on the uses of this autobiographic genre and its claims topersonhood in relation to marginalized groups in their struggle for recognition. Today, the rigid categories of the genre havebeen dissolved as it includes autobiographies, biographies, diaries, testimonies, and basically all forms of self narration andrepresentation. In this class we will therefore read traditional autobiographies as well as texts more broadly summarized as lifewriting.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Taking ‘modernity’ as the period from the late-Victorian era to the decades immediately following the Second World War,this course will examine the development of Gothic, horror, and supernatural themes and forms in novels, short stories andfilms, particularly (but not exclusively) in Britain. We will begin by considering the revival of Gothic themes in late-Victorianliterature, in texts such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). ArthurMachen’s The Great God Pan (1890) will be studied in the context of the fin-de-siècle, decadent literature and ‘weird fiction’and the ‘golden age’ of the ghost story is represented by Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ (1892) HenryJames’ The Turn of the Screw (1898), and stories by M.R. James, Lord Dunsany and Algernon Blackwood. Cinematicadaptations of several of these texts will be considered, and particular focus will be given to two early horror films produced inthe Weimar Republic: Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr Calgari (1920) and F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922). In the postwarera, the development of the figure of the zombie—already evident in Jacques Tourneur’s 1943 film I Walked with a Zombie,but developed in George Romero’s genre-defining Night of the Living Dead (1968) lead us towards the development of themodern horror film, as do two prototypical slasher films of 1960: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and Michael Powell’s PeepingTom. Alongside these works, we will examine key theoretical questions: what exactly are Gothic, horror, and the supernatural?How (and why) have these modes developed and changed in the first half of the twentieth century? What kind of relationshipsexist between these modes and the political, historical and cultural contexts of modernity? Such questions will be approachedvia secondary material by authors including Freud, S.L. Varnado, H.P. Lovecraft, and Julia Briggs.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.In the short history of the Digital Humanities (DH), the ongoing transformation of scholarship through digitization andthe curation as well as implementation of digital repositories has largely privileged the work of canonical writers andartists from North America and Western Europe. This tendency reflects and reifies the history of colonialism which haseither underappreciated or exploited cultural artifacts from the former colonies. This seminar will discuss how the digitaltransformation raises postcolonial questions and will inquire whether the tools and methods of the digital humanities canindeed further the project of decolonization. We will explore postcolonial interventions of digital literature as well as reflectionsof the digital in contemporary postcolonial writing, born-digital artistic work as well as digital scholarship.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The turn of the century saw the emergence of the spy novel as a new literary genre that has since developed into a lastingpart of British popular culture. Early works like Rudyard Kipling´s Kim (1901), Erskine Childers´ The Riddle of the Sands(1903) or Joseph Conrad´s The Secret Agent (1907) are now considered classic examples of early British espionage fiction.Not only written for the purpose of entertainment, these bestsellers are also testimonies of a turbulent era of change andchallenge, in which not only British national security and imperial rule but also social hierarchies and traditional gender rolesseemed in peril.

Kommentar

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Taking ‘modernity’ as the period from the late-Victorian era to the decades immediately following the Second World War,this course will examine the development of Gothic, horror, and supernatural themes and forms in novels, short stories andfilms, particularly (but not exclusively) in Britain. We will begin by considering the revival of Gothic themes in late-Victorianliterature, in texts such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). ArthurMachen’s The Great God Pan (1890) will be studied in the context of the fin-de-siècle, decadent literature and ‘weird fiction’and the ‘golden age’ of the ghost story is represented by Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ (1892) HenryJames’ The Turn of the Screw (1898), and stories by M.R. James, Lord Dunsany and Algernon Blackwood. Cinematicadaptations of several of these texts will be considered, and particular focus will be given to two early horror films produced inthe Weimar Republic: Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr Calgari (1920) and F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922). In the postwarera, the development of the figure of the zombie—already evident in Jacques Tourneur’s 1943 film I Walked with a Zombie,but developed in George Romero’s genre-defining Night of the Living Dead (1968) lead us towards the development of themodern horror film, as do two prototypical slasher films of 1960: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and Michael Powell’s PeepingTom. Alongside these works, we will examine key theoretical questions: what exactly are Gothic, horror, and the supernatural?How (and why) have these modes developed and changed in the first half of the twentieth century? What kind of relationshipsexist between these modes and the political, historical and cultural contexts of modernity? Such questions will be approachedvia secondary material by authors including Freud, S.L. Varnado, H.P. Lovecraft, and Julia Briggs.

Kommentar

Für weitere Informationen zum Kommentar, zur Literatur und zum Leistungsnachweis klicken Sie bitte oben auf den Link"Kommentar".This course aims to promote an understanding of the complexity of Australian national identity by providing a historicalbackground to contemporary debates. Based on the study of primary texts – including government documents, novels, poems,films, historiographical works, newspaper articles, song lyrics, and tourism advertisements – we will scrutinize the traditionof defining Australia. Placing a particular emphasis on historical focal points (e.g., Federation, Gallipoli, the British departurefrom the South Pacific, the introduction of official multiculturalism, the ‘History Wars’), we will focus especially on recurringthemes such as the outback/bush, whiteness, mateship, and egalitarianism that have functioned as (auto) stereotypes ofAustralianness. In addition, we will bring to light the ambivalent attitude Australian settlers have adopted towards Australia’sformer motherland, Great Britain, its neighbouring Asian countries, and its powerful ally to the east, the United States.Perhaps most importantly, we will discuss how Australians have dealt with the legacy of colonial violence and oppressiontowards Australia’s Indigenous population and attempt to explain Indigenous–settler relations, mechanisms of otherness,and dominant representations of Aboriginality in contemporary Australian culture. In this endeavor, cultural studies will serveas our core analytical framework we will draw, in particular, on secondary literature that developed out of the context of theAustralian tradition of cultural studies, including works by Stephen Muecke, Ian Hunter, and Philip Morrissey.

Für weitere Informationen zum Kommentar, zur Literatur und zum Leistungsnachweis klicken Sie bitte oben auf den Link"Kommentar".This is the second part of a two-course module which lays the groundwork for all further coursework in linguistics. In thissecond part of the module, participants will learn about aspects of syntax, i.e. how phrases, clauses, and sentences areformed, and how to apply these to new examples and, ideally, analyze examples of actual language use themselves by -excerpting the relevant knowledge from course-specific slidecasts and additional literature on the basis of guiding questions,- testing their understanding by applying their newly acquired knowledge to exercise questions, - clarifying questions inclass, and - completing assignments, which also include an application task, for each subtopic in order to later be able touse these skills in the advanced linguistics courses in their BA and MA studies. Notice: For the teacher training BA program(Studienordnung WS 13/14) and the new BA program (Studienordnung WS 15/16), this course together with Introductionto Synchronic Linguistics, Part I forms the Basic Module in Linguistics (BM-Lin). The module ends with a final written examof 180 minutes comprising the contents of Parts I and II. For students of all other study programs, this course will be thesecond part of the Grundmodul Linguistik (GLin). Students in these study programs will have to write a final written exam of90 minutes each at the end of Part I, Part II, and Part III. You may attend this course in parallel with part I. Please note theamount of work you will have to do for both these courses, though.

Note: For groups 1 and 3, the class will be blended, i.e. students will study both online and in class.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The course presents an introduction to the history of the English language and following the progression of the languagefrom Germanic to Old, Middle and Modern English, it aims at imparting a better understanding of questions such as: Whatare the linguistic roots of English? Why are there similarities and differences between German and English? How did thepronunciation and the sound system change from Old to Modern English? Why has English lost most of its inflections? Howwas the English vocabulary expanded during its history? Why do we have different varieties of English today? You will learnabout those language changes that shaped up Present Day English and contributed to a number of its curiosities such as thesystem of tenses or the discrepancy between spelling and pronunciation - one of the major difficulties for ESL students.

In the historical course of its linguistic expansion, the English language has been taken to the most remote areas of the world,yielding a multitude of countries where English is spoken as a native or second language nowadays. However, being spokenin different places and by different groups of people, English has undergone a considerable global variation (e.g., in terms ofphonology, lexical choice, and morphosyntax) and, thus, has developed into different 'World Englishes.'

This seminar will focus in particular on smaller, lesser-known varieties of English. After a theoretical introduction to relevantbasic concepts and issues in dialectology and sociolinguistics, students will comparatively examine—and present in class atthe end of the semester—both the current sociolinguistic situation as well as peculiar linguistic features of a variety of theirchoice.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The seminar will examine the phonological, morphological, syntactic and lexical-semantic features of Early Modern English,i.e. of the language and its development between 1500 and 1750. This is the time when for instance Shakespeare or Miltonwrote their works. This is also the time when an English standard developed and when the Renaissance had an importantimpact on the development of the English vocabulary. Based on the reading and analysis of Early Modern English texts, theseminar will not only focus on the enrichment and change of the vocabulary, but also examine important sound changes inthat period (last but not least the famous Tudor Vowel Shift) and discuss morphological and syntactic peculiarities (such asLucilla hir company, etc.) and finally investigate the development of varieties of English.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course considers Irish English, also known as Hiberno-English. English was first introduced to Ireland in the twelfthcentury and then again in the seventeenth century, making Irish English the oldest form of colonial English. Irish, the languageof Ireland since earliest times, was replaced by English as the language of the majority in the nineteenth century. Thecharacteristic Irish accents and lexis reflect earlier English as well as the influence of Irish. This course will describe thecurrent linguistic situation in Ireland, in particular recent developments. It will also consider the historical development of IrishEnglish and the influences in its development, in particular those of Irish. We will also look at the decline of Irish, the languageof the majority population at the start of the nineteenth century but now confined more or less to pockets along the westernseaboard. It is recommended that students taking this course have already attended the two-semester introductory modulesIntroduction to Synchronic Linguistics and the lecture series Introduction to the History of English.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading. How do speakers express meanings through language? To study the meaning of words, sentences and utterances,this course will be devoted to two major topics: 1) Semantics as the study of the relationship between language units and theirmeaning and 2) Pragmatics as the study of actual language use in interaction (Cummins & Griffiths, 2016). Building on thediscussion of lexical semantics as introduced in Introduction to Synchronic Linguistics Part I, we will revisit sense relations andlook at different parts of speech and their meanings in English. The second part of the course will introduce pragmatic theories(e.g. Gricean maxims, Relevance Theory, Speech Act Theory) and examine how speakers use and hearers understandutterances in context. Prerequisites: Successful completion of the Grund-/Basismodul, depending on your study program

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Morphology, in linguistics, is the study of the internal construction of words and the processes behind the formation of newwords. Speakers of a language know a lot about the internal structure of words (e.g., fly-ing, be-en) as well as regular waysof forming new words from existing ones (e.g., to answer – an answer starlet, or breakout star). This course is designedto improve your understanding of the structure of English words and the grammatical and lexical properties of the Englishlanguage. Seminar topics will include important theoretical issues in linguistic morphology such as the difference betweeninflexion and derivation, the notion of productivity, various types of word-formation processes, such as compounding,affixation, zero-derivation, backformation, clipping, blending, and acronyms, the relationship between word-formation andborrowing, both in a synchronic and diachronic perspective. Morphological analysis will be practised using English material.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course deals with those areas of linguistics concerned with the sounds of speech, namely, phonetics and phonology,and examines these topics, covered in the introductory seminar Introduction to Synchronic Linguistics, in greater detail.Transcription of British and American English will be practised with the aim of (i) familiarizing students with transcription usingthe IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) system and (ii) improving the ability to distinguish and describe phonetic information.In addition, non-standard varieties of English as well as examples from other languages will be used throughout the course.Under phonology we will discuss the function of sounds within the linguistic system. The most important and influentialmethods and theories of description will be reviewed. The phonological system of English will be considered and compared tothose of other languages and students will be presented with phonological data for analysis and evaluation.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course serves as an introduction to the linguistic description and analysis of language on the level of discourse. Whilebuilding on the knowledge acquired in the introductory module, we will move beyond the analysis of single, isolated and de-contextualised sentences. We will investigate how participants use language as a resource for communicating and interactingwith each other, for structuring and unifying discourse and for displaying social identity, beliefs and opinions. Furthermore,we will discuss the role of context and co-text for (fully) understanding any (written) text or (spoken) piece of discourse. Toachieve the learning outcome, students will be provided with, and expected to prepare, a selection of weekly readings as wellas worksheets. In the sessions, we will discuss central concepts from the material, but our focus will be on applying the theory.Regular hands-on analyses of genuine (written and spoken) English data will serve as preparation for the assessment.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course is intended as an introduction to detective fiction, one of the most recent and most popular sub-genres ofliterature. Students will read detective fiction alongside literary criticism, and there will also be examples of filmic adaptationsthat underline how the tropes and characters of detective fiction have disseminated into the landscape of popular culture. Theseminar will chart the inception of the genre in the nineteenth century through a reading of seminal texts by Edgar Allan Poeand Arthur Conan Doyle. It will then consider how detective fiction flourished in its so-called “Golden Age” of the 1920s and30s in Britain, made evident in the works of Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers. By looking at novels by Dashiell Hammett,Raymond Chandler, and Rudolph Fisher we will also discuss a specific American variant, the “hard-boiled” detective tradition.Because we will analyze a wide array of short stories and novels, as well as literary criticism, it should be noted that this is areading-intensive class with a very high workload.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.In this class we will explore the genre of autobiographic writing in the United States and its particular relation to identityformation – both individually and nationally. Life writing and its critique underwent significant changes during the 20th and21st century. From a marginal genre and a largely neglected field of research the autobiography evolved into the epitomeof contemporary “western” culture. We will trace this development focusing on the changing understanding of individualityand personhood that it represents. Most importantly we will focus on the uses of this autobiographic genre and its claims topersonhood in relation to marginalized groups in their struggle for recognition. Today, the rigid categories of the genre havebeen dissolved as it includes autobiographies, biographies, diaries, testimonies, and basically all forms of self narration andrepresentation. In this class we will therefore read traditional autobiographies as well as texts more broadly summarized as lifewriting.

Kommentar

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Taking ‘modernity’ as the period from the late-Victorian era to the decades immediately following the Second World War,this course will examine the development of Gothic, horror, and supernatural themes and forms in novels, short stories andfilms, particularly (but not exclusively) in Britain. We will begin by considering the revival of Gothic themes in late-Victorianliterature, in texts such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). ArthurMachen’s The Great God Pan (1890) will be studied in the context of the fin-de-siècle, decadent literature and ‘weird fiction’and the ‘golden age’ of the ghost story is represented by Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ (1892) HenryJames’ The Turn of the Screw (1898), and stories by M.R. James, Lord Dunsany and Algernon Blackwood. Cinematicadaptations of several of these texts will be considered, and particular focus will be given to two early horror films produced inthe Weimar Republic: Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr Calgari (1920) and F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922). In the postwarera, the development of the figure of the zombie—already evident in Jacques Tourneur’s 1943 film I Walked with a Zombie,but developed in George Romero’s genre-defining Night of the Living Dead (1968) lead us towards the development of themodern horror film, as do two prototypical slasher films of 1960: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and Michael Powell’s PeepingTom. Alongside these works, we will examine key theoretical questions: what exactly are Gothic, horror, and the supernatural?How (and why) have these modes developed and changed in the first half of the twentieth century? What kind of relationshipsexist between these modes and the political, historical and cultural contexts of modernity? Such questions will be approachedvia secondary material by authors including Freud, S.L. Varnado, H.P. Lovecraft, and Julia Briggs.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The turn of the century saw the emergence of the spy novel as a new literary genre that has since developed into a lastingpart of British popular culture. Early works like Rudyard Kipling´s Kim (1901), Erskine Childers´ The Riddle of the Sands(1903) or Joseph Conrad´s The Secret Agent (1907) are now considered classic examples of early British espionage fiction.Not only written for the purpose of entertainment, these bestsellers are also testimonies of a turbulent era of change andchallenge, in which not only British national security and imperial rule but also social hierarchies and traditional gender rolesseemed in peril. The seminar will examine how the authors addressed common issues and fears that prevailed in Britainduring the Edwardian era and why spy novels gained such an immense popularity at the outset of the 20th century. It will alsoshow how their idealised depiction of espionage contrasted with the real work of British intelligence services at that time.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.In the short history of the Digital Humanities (DH), the ongoing transformation of scholarship through digitization andthe curation as well as implementation of digital repositories has largely privileged the work of canonical writers andartists from North America and Western Europe. This tendency reflects and reifies the history of colonialism which haseither underappreciated or exploited cultural artifacts from the former colonies. This seminar will discuss how the digitaltransformation raises postcolonial questions and will inquire whether the tools and methods of the digital humanities canindeed further the project of decolonization. We will explore postcolonial interventions of digital literature as well as reflectionsof the digital in contemporary postcolonial writing, born-digital artistic work as well as digital scholarship.

Kommentar

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The turn of the century saw the emergence of the spy novel as a new literary genre that has since developed into a lastingpart of British popular culture. Early works like Rudyard Kipling´s Kim (1901), Erskine Childers´ The Riddle of the Sands(1903) or Joseph Conrad´s The Secret Agent (1907) are now considered classic examples of early British espionage fiction.Not only written for the purpose of entertainment, these bestsellers are also testimonies of a turbulent era of change andchallenge, in which not only British national security and imperial rule but also social hierarchies and traditional gender rolesseemed in peril. The seminar will examine how the authors addressed common issues and fears that prevailed in Britainduring the Edwardian era and why spy novels gained such an immense popularity at the outset of the 20th century. It will alsoshow how their idealised depiction of espionage contrasted with the real work of British intelligence services at that time.

Literatur

Participants are expected to read at least one of the novels mentioned above.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Taking ‘modernity’ as the period from the late-Victorian era to the decades immediately following the Second World War,this course will examine the development of Gothic, horror, and supernatural themes and forms in novels, short stories andfilms, particularly (but not exclusively) in Britain. We will begin by considering the revival of Gothic themes in late-Victorianliterature, in texts such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). ArthurMachen’s The Great God Pan (1890) will be studied in the context of the fin-de-siècle, decadent literature and ‘weird fiction’and the ‘golden age’ of the ghost story is represented by Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ (1892) HenryJames’ The Turn of the Screw (1898), and stories by M.R. James, Lord Dunsany and Algernon Blackwood. Cinematicadaptations of several of these texts will be considered, and particular focus will be given to two early horror films produced inthe Weimar Republic: Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr Calgari (1920) and F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922). In the postwarera, the development of the figure of the zombie—already evident in Jacques Tourneur’s 1943 film I Walked with a Zombie,but developed in George Romero’s genre-defining Night of the Living Dead (1968) lead us towards the development of themodern horror film, as do two prototypical slasher films of 1960: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and Michael Powell’s PeepingTom. Alongside these works, we will examine key theoretical questions: what exactly are Gothic, horror, and the supernatural?How (and why) have these modes developed and changed in the first half of the twentieth century? What kind of relationshipsexist between these modes and the political, historical and cultural contexts of modernity? Such questions will be approachedvia secondary material by authors including Freud, S.L. Varnado, H.P. Lovecraft, and Julia Briggs.

Für weitere Informationen zum Kommentar, zur Literatur und zum Leistungsnachweis klicken Sie bitte oben auf den Link"Kommentar".This course aims to promote an understanding of the complexity of Australian national identity by providing a historicalbackground to contemporary debates. Based on the study of primary texts – including government documents, novels, poems,films, historiographical works, newspaper articles, song lyrics, and tourism advertisements – we will scrutinize the traditionof defining Australia. Placing a particular emphasis on historical focal points (e.g., Federation, Gallipoli, the British departurefrom the South Pacific, the introduction of official multiculturalism, the ‘History Wars’), we will focus especially on recurringthemes such as the outback/bush, whiteness, mateship, and egalitarianism that have functioned as (auto) stereotypes ofAustralianness. In addition, we will bring to light the ambivalent attitude Australian settlers have adopted towards Australia’sformer motherland, Great Britain, its neighbouring Asian countries, and its powerful ally to the east, the United States.Perhaps most importantly, we will discuss how Australians have dealt with the legacy of colonial violence and oppressiontowards Australia’s Indigenous population and attempt to explain Indigenous–settler relations, mechanisms of otherness,and dominant representations of Aboriginality in contemporary Australian culture. In this endeavor, cultural studies will serveas our core analytical framework we will draw, in particular, on secondary literature that developed out of the context of theAustralian tradition of cultural studies, including works by Stephen Muecke, Ian Hunter, and Philip Morrissey.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course is intended as an introduction to detective fiction, one of the most recent and most popular sub-genres ofliterature. Students will read detective fiction alongside literary criticism, and there will also be examples of filmic adaptationsthat underline how the tropes and characters of detective fiction have disseminated into the landscape of popular culture. Theseminar will chart the inception of the genre in the nineteenth century through a reading of seminal texts by Edgar Allan Poeand Arthur Conan Doyle. It will then consider how detective fiction flourished in its so-called “Golden Age” of the 1920s and30s in Britain, made evident in the works of Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers. By looking at novels by Dashiell Hammett,Raymond Chandler, and Rudolph Fisher we will also discuss a specific American variant, the “hard-boiled” detective tradition.Because we will analyze a wide array of short stories and novels, as well as literary criticism, it should be noted that this is areading-intensive class with a very high workload.

This tendency reflects and reifies the history of colonialism which haseither underappreciated or exploited cultural artifacts from the former colonies. This seminar will discuss how the digitaltransformation raises postcolonial questions and will inquire whether the tools and methods of the digital humanities canindeed further the project of decolonization. We will explore postcolonial interventions of digital literature as well as reflectionsof the digital in contemporary postcolonial writing, born-digital artistic work as well as digital scholarship.

Kommentar

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.In this class we will explore the genre of autobiographic writing in the United States and its particular relation to identityformation – both individually and nationally. Life writing and its critique underwent significant changes during the 20th and21st century. From a marginal genre and a largely neglected field of research the autobiography evolved into the epitomeof contemporary “western” culture. We will trace this development focusing on the changing understanding of individualityand personhood that it represents. Most importantly we will focus on the uses of this autobiographic genre and its claims topersonhood in relation to marginalized groups in their struggle for recognition. Today, the rigid categories of the genre havebeen dissolved as it includes autobiographies, biographies, diaries, testimonies, and basically all forms of self narration andrepresentation. In this class we will therefore read traditional autobiographies as well as texts more broadly summarized as lifewriting.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Taking ‘modernity’ as the period from the late-Victorian era to the decades immediately following the Second World War,this course will examine the development of Gothic, horror, and supernatural themes and forms in novels, short stories andfilms, particularly (but not exclusively) in Britain. We will begin by considering the revival of Gothic themes in late-Victorianliterature, in texts such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). ArthurMachen’s The Great God Pan (1890) will be studied in the context of the fin-de-siècle, decadent literature and ‘weird fiction’and the ‘golden age’ of the ghost story is represented by Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ (1892) HenryJames’ The Turn of the Screw (1898), and stories by M.R. James, Lord Dunsany and Algernon Blackwood. Cinematicadaptations of several of these texts will be considered, and particular focus will be given to two early horror films produced inthe Weimar Republic: Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr Calgari (1920) and F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922). In the postwarera, the development of the figure of the zombie—already evident in Jacques Tourneur’s 1943 film I Walked with a Zombie,but developed in George Romero’s genre-defining Night of the Living Dead (1968) lead us towards the development of themodern horror film, as do two prototypical slasher films of 1960: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and Michael Powell’s PeepingTom. Alongside these works, we will examine key theoretical questions: what exactly are Gothic, horror, and the supernatural?How (and why) have these modes developed and changed in the first half of the twentieth century? What kind of relationshipsexist between these modes and the political, historical and cultural contexts of modernity? Such questions will be approachedvia secondary material by authors including Freud, S.L. Varnado, H.P. Lovecraft, and Julia Briggs.

Kommentar

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.This course is intended as an introduction to detective fiction, one of the most recent and most popular sub-genres ofliterature. Students will read detective fiction alongside literary criticism, and there will also be examples of filmic adaptationsthat underline how the tropes and characters of detective fiction have disseminated into the landscape of popular culture. Theseminar will chart the inception of the genre in the nineteenth century through a reading of seminal texts by Edgar Allan Poeand Arthur Conan Doyle. It will then consider how detective fiction flourished in its so-called “Golden Age” of the 1920s and30s in Britain, made evident in the works of Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers. By looking at novels by Dashiell Hammett,Raymond Chandler, and Rudolph Fisher we will also discuss a specific American variant, the “hard-boiled” detective tradition.Because we will analyze a wide array of short stories and novels, as well as literary criticism, it should be noted that this is areading-intensive class with a very high workload.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The turn of the century saw the emergence of the spy novel as a new literary genre that has since developed into a lastingpart of British popular culture. Early works like Rudyard Kipling´s Kim (1901), Erskine Childers´ The Riddle of the Sands(1903) or Joseph Conrad´s The Secret Agent (1907) are now considered classic examples of early British espionage fiction.Not only written for the purpose of entertainment, these bestsellers are also testimonies of a turbulent era of change andchallenge, in which not only British national security and imperial rule but also social hierarchies and traditional gender rolesseemed in peril. The seminar will examine how the authors addressed common issues and fears that prevailed in Britainduring the Edwardian era and why spy novels gained such an immense popularity at the outset of the 20th century. It will alsoshow how their idealised depiction of espionage contrasted with the real work of British intelligence services at that time.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.The turn of the century saw the emergence of the spy novel as a new literary genre that has since developed into a lastingpart of British popular culture. Early works like Rudyard Kipling´s Kim (1901), Erskine Childers´ The Riddle of the Sands(1903) or Joseph Conrad´s The Secret Agent (1907) are now considered classic examples of early British espionage fiction.Not only written for the purpose of entertainment, these bestsellers are also testimonies of a turbulent era of change andchallenge, in which not only British national security and imperial rule but also social hierarchies and traditional gender rolesseemed in peril. The seminar will examine how the authors addressed common issues and fears that prevailed in Britainduring the Edwardian era and why spy novels gained such an immense popularity at the outset of the 20th century. It will alsoshow how their idealised depiction of espionage contrasted with the real work of British intelligence services at that time.

Literatur

Participants are expected to read at least one of the novels mentioned above.

Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements andgrading.Taking ‘modernity’ as the period from the late-Victorian era to the decades immediately following the Second World War,this course will examine the development of Gothic, horror, and supernatural themes and forms in novels, short stories andfilms, particularly (but not exclusively) in Britain. We will begin by considering the revival of Gothic themes in late-Victorianliterature, in texts such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897). ArthurMachen’s The Great God Pan (1890) will be studied in the context of the fin-de-siècle, decadent literature and ‘weird fiction’and the ‘golden age’ of the ghost story is represented by Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ (1892) HenryJames’ The Turn of the Screw (1898), and stories by M.R. James, Lord Dunsany and Algernon Blackwood. Cinematicadaptations of several of these texts will be considered, and particular focus will be given to two early horror films produced inthe Weimar Republic: Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr Calgari (1920) and F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922). In the postwarera, the development of the figure of the zombie—already evident in Jacques Tourneur’s 1943 film I Walked with a Zombie,but developed in George Romero’s genre-defining Night of the Living Dead (1968) lead us towards the development of themodern horror film, as do two prototypical slasher films of 1960: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and Michael Powell’s PeepingTom. Alongside these works, we will examine key theoretical questions: what exactly are Gothic, horror, and the supernatural?How (and why) have these modes developed and changed in the first half of the twentieth century? What kind of relationshipsexist between these modes and the political, historical and cultural contexts of modernity? Such questions will be approachedvia secondary material by authors including Freud, S.L. Varnado, H.P. Lovecraft, and Julia Briggs.

Based on the study of primary texts – including government documents, novels, poems,films, historiographical works, newspaper articles, song lyrics, and tourism advertisements – we will scrutinize the traditionof defining Australia. Placing a particular emphasis on historical focal points (e.g., Federation, Gallipoli, the British departurefrom the South Pacific, the introduction of official multiculturalism, the ‘History Wars’), we will focus especially on recurringthemes such as the outback/bush, whiteness, mateship, and egalitarianism that have functioned as (auto) stereotypes ofAustralianness. In addition, we will bring to light the ambivalent attitude Australian settlers have adopted towards Australia’sformer motherland, Great Britain, its neighbouring Asian countries, and its powerful ally to the east, the United States.Perhaps most importantly, we will discuss how Australians have dealt with the legacy of colonial violence and oppressiontowards Australia’s Indigenous population and attempt to explain Indigenous–settler relations, mechanisms of otherness,and dominant representations of Aboriginality in contemporary Australian culture. In this endeavor, cultural studies will serveas our core analytical framework we will draw, in particular, on secondary literature that developed out of the context of theAustralian tradition of cultural studies, including works by Stephen Muecke, Ian Hunter, and Philip Morrissey.
