Comments on lectures 2009 to 2011

Lectures in the summer semester 2011

Tue 12 p.m. - 2 p.m. 20th Century Prose (lecture)
4004027 Eckhard Schumacher, Rubenowstr. 1, HS 5

The lecture provides an overview of important trends, new developments, continuities and breaks in German-language prose in the 20th century. In addition to questions of literary-historical contexts (e.g. in the juxtaposition of modernism and postmodernism), relevant literary procedures and questions about the concept and boundaries of literature will be discussed. The focus will be on short prose, but other prose forms such as the novel, essay, reportage, diary, rectification or report will also be addressed. The programme will be presented in the first session.


Thu 12 p.m. - 2 p.m.  Experiments: Essay and Science (seminar)
4004035 Eckhard Schumacher, Rubenowstr. 3, R 1.05

While in other disciplines the 'experiment' is often at the centre of research, for example in the form of the academic experiment, its location in literary studies is more complicated. This can be seen in the example of the essay, which is an attempt. In literary studies, the essay is only granted the status of science to a limited extent, but the essay is also not readily categorised as literature. The seminar takes this strange intermediate position as a starting point for a series of questions concerning the ratio of essay and science: What role does the essay play in literary studies? How do literary studies reflect on the history of the essay? What role do the principle of experimentation and the practice of experimentation play? Essays by Theodor W. Adorno, Karl Heinz Bohrer, Gabriele Goettle, Michel de Montaigne, Robert Musil, Friedrich Schlegel, David Shields and others will be discussed.
Presentation of the programme in the first session. A reader with the seminar readings will be available from the first week of lectures.


Wed 12 p.m. - 2 p.m. Translation as a Literary Procedure (seminar)
4004044 Eckhard Schumacher, Rubenowstr. 3, R 1.05

The fact that literary texts cannot be translated into other languages without major losses is as much a commonplace of literary studies as the fact that foreign-language literature can often only be received through the possibility of translation. Both views usually ignore the fact that translation itself can also function as a literary-poetic procedure. Against the background of relevant considerations from translation theory, the seminar will deal with literary texts in which procedures of translation, language mixing, multilingualism and the confrontation with 'foreign languages' are used to produce something that cannot be limited to the status of translation. What happens, for example, when Oskar Pastior targets forty-three different translations of Charles Baudelaire's poem 'Harmonie du soir'? What happens when Rolf Dieter Brinkmann and Ralf-Rainer Rygulla translate Guillaume Apollinaire's poem 'La jolie rousse' into German under the title 'Der joviale Russe' without any knowledge of the French language? And what if Yoko Tawada deals with 'Überseezungen'?
Presentation of the programme in the first session. A reader with the seminar readings will be available from the first week of lectures.
Admission requirements: Before the first session, please read Friedrich Schleiermacher: "Ueber die verschiede-nen Methoden des Uebersezens" (1813), in: Das Problem des Übersetzens, ed. by H.J. Störig, Stuttgart 1963. The text will be made available in the self-service portal and as a photocopy in the reference work German philology. Furthermore, a willingness to read the text carefully and to participate actively is required. The admission requirements may be validated in the seminar.


Tue 4 p.m. - 6 p.m. Research Colloquium/Exam Colloquium (advanced seminar)
4004068 Eckhard Schumacher, Rubenowstr. 3, R 1.05

The colloquium combines a research colloquium (beginning 5/4, further dates: 19/4, 3/5, 17/5, 31/5, 28/6, 12/7) and an exam colloquium (start 12/4, further dates: 26/4, 10/5, 24/5, 7/6, 21/6, 5/7).

Lectures in the winter semester 2010/11

Tue 8 a.m. - 10 a.m. Introduction to Literary Studies (lecture)
4004014 Eckhard Schumacher, Rubenowstr. 1, HS 1

This lecture introduces students to central issues in German Literary Studies. As a briefing, it is intended to convey an academic awareness of problems that is characterised by openness to irritation and in this way enables students to engage independently with literary texts and literary studies problems. Historical and systematic accents are set on the basis of exemplary texts. In addition to the question "What is literary studies?", the question "What is literature?" is repeatedly posed, including the following topics and concepts: Reading/understanding/interpreting, author/work/reader, poetics, rhetoric and aesthetics, textual criticism and edition philology, literary history and literary historiography, History of German Language and Literature, literary theory, media and cultural studies. Presentation of the programme in the first session.

Tue 12 p.m. -14 p.m. History of Contemporary Literature (seminar)
4004060 Eckhard Schumacher, Rubenowstr. 3, R 1.05

From the perspective of literary historiography, contemporary literature presents itself above all as a problem: How can what appears to be present be categorised historically? What is only of present interest and what is relevant in the long term? Is contemporary literature an object of literary studies at all? Or is it more a matter for current literary criticism, for essays that diagnose the times? And: What does contemporary literature even mean? These and other questions have long had a history of their own. In the mid-19th century, for example, the term (and the history) of contemporary literature was understood differently than it was at the end of the 20th century. At the same time, expectations towards contemporary literature change, as does the respective self-image of literary criticism and literary studies. In view of such historical changes, the seminar will, on the one hand, address fundamental questions about the concept and history of contemporary literature and, on the other hand, reconstruct selected discussions on contemporary literature in the context of literary criticism and literary historiography.
Admission requirements: Before the first session, please read Frank Schirrmacher: Abschied von der Literatur der Bundesrepublik, in: Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung 2 October 1990 and Georg Stanitzek: Philologie und Gegenwartsessay. Überlegungen aus disziplinärer Sicht, in: Kai Kauffmann/Erhard Schütz (eds.): Die lange History der Kleinen Form. Beiträge zur Feuilletonforschung, Berlin 2000, pp. 243-252. Copy templates are provided in the reference work German philology. The lecturer reserves the right to carry out a suitable validation of the admission requirements in the first week of lectures.


Tue 6 p.m.- 8 p.m. Colloquium/ Advanced Seminar
4004075 Eckhard Schumacher, Rubenowstr. 3, R 2.10

The colloquium will be held in two parts in the winter semester: Alternating weekly, it combines an exam colloquium (start 12 Oct, further dates: 26 Oct, 9 Nov, 23 Nov, 7 Dec, 4 Jan, 18 Jan) and a research colloquium (start 19 Oct, further dates: 2 Nov, 16 Nov, 30 Nov, 14 Dec, 11 Jan, 25 Jan). It is possible to take part in both parts or only one part of the colloquium. The examination colloquium is dedicated to all questions that arise within the framework of the preparation for theses or final examinations (Staatsexamen (State Examination), Magister, Master's). The research colloquium provides a framework for the discussion of literary theory texts and positions as well as for the presentation of current research projects (research projects, theses, habilitations). In order to obtain an overview of interests and possible areas of focus in advance, please register during consultation hours or by e-mail with the subject 'Colloquium' by 30 September 2010 (eckhard.schumacher@uni-greifswald.de). When registering, please indicate whether you would like to take part in both parts or only in the examination or research colloquium.


Wed 12 p.m. - 2 p.m. Fact and Fiction: Concepts of Realistic Writing (seminar)
4004058 Eckhard Schumacher, Rubenowstr. 3, R 1.05

To the extent that the constructed nature of the supposedly authentic has been emphasised in literature and cultural studies in recent years, there has also been an increase in voices calling for or observing a return of the real. These academic debates correspond to writing styles in contemporary literature that, on the one hand, rely on documentary procedures such as reports and transcripts, but, on the other hand, often also deliberately unsettle the boundaries between fact and fiction. Against this current background, the seminar will combine historically far-reaching reflections on concepts of literary and cultural theory of realist writing with the reading of selected literary texts. Texts by Aristotle, Erich Auerbach, Roland Barthes, Hubert Fichte, Rainald Goetz, Alexander Kluge, Wolfgang Koeppen, Helmut Lethen and others will be discussed. In conjunction with the seminar, a lecture series will be held at the Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg (Institute of Advanced Studies) in the winter semester (please keep Wednesdays free, 6.15 p.m.: 27 Oct; 10 Nov; 24 Nov; 8 Dec; 12 Jan; 26 Jan).
Admission requirements: Before the first session, please read Bernd W. Seiler: The Probable and the Essential. Vom Sinn des Realismusbegriffs und der History seiner Verundeutlichung, in: Zur Terminologie der Literaturwissenschaft, ed. by Ch. Wagenknecht, Stuttgart 1989, pp. 373-392 and Roland Barthes: Der Wirklichkeitseffekt [1968], in: Ders.: Das Rauschen der Sprache, Frankfurt/M. 2005, pp. 164-172. Copy templates will be provided in the reference work German philology. The lecturer reserves the right to carry out a suitable validation of the admission requirements in the first week of lectures.

 

Lectures in the summer semester 2010

Thu 10 a.m. - 12 p.m. Performativity and Performance (lecture)
4004034, Rubenowstr. 2, lecture hall


In an interview, Madonna answers the question: "Who are you?": "I think of myself as a performance artist - I hate being hold a pop star!" And when the interviewer repeats the term 'performance artist', she adds: "I like that because it covers everything." One starting point of the lecture is the assumption that the prominence that the terms performance and performativity have gained in the context of Cultural Studies in the past few years is due to a similar expectation. In the discussion of literature and cultural studies theory, too, attempts are made to cover as many and very different fields as possible with the terms performance and performativity. They are also used in different ways from different positions, so that the present debates on questions of representation, mediality, textuality and identity are bundled in the concepts. The lecture will outline the similarities and differences between the various approaches in order to work out the possibilities and problems that the concepts of performance and performativity open up for literary studies. Texts from the context of philosophy of language, speech act theory and deconstruction (including John L. Austin, Jacques Derrida), conceptions of performance and performativity within the framework of gender studies and cultural studies (including Judith Butler, Peggy Phelan), approaches from anthropology and theatre studies (including Victor Turner, Erika Fischer-Lichte) as well as approaches from literary studies in a narrower sense (including Shoshana Felman, Jonathan Culler) will be presented.


Wed 12 p.m. - 2 p.m. Romanticism: Friedrich Schlegel and the Athenaeum (seminar)
4004046, Rubenowstr. 3, R 1.05

"Of all that relates to the notification of ideas, what can be more attractive than the question of whether it is possible at all; and where would one have a closer opportunity to enrol in various experiments on the possibility or impossibility of this matter than when one either writes a journal such as the Athenaeum oneself, or participates in it as a reader?" writes Friedrich Schlegel in the spring of 1800 in the last issue of the Athenaeum. The seminar will take up this question and discuss it with regard to some of the "attempts" that Schlegel published in the journal he co-founded from 1798 to 1800 - including the 'Fragments', 'On Goethe's Masters', the 'Conversation on Poetry' and 'On Incomprehensibility'. The question of the possibility of the "notification of ideas" is almost inevitably linked to the concept of irony, which was central to Schlegel but difficult to localise - which, as Schlegel writes, "manifests itself more or less everywhere" in the Athenaeum.
Admission requirements: Before the first session, please read Friedrich Schlegel's essay 'Über die Unverständlichkeit' and Ernst Behler's essay 'Athenäum. Die Geschichte einer Zeitschrift'. Copies will be provided in the reference work German philology. Knowledge of the text must be proven in the first session.


Thu 8 a.m. - 10 a.m. Tourism and Literature: Venice as a Paradigm (seminar)
4004047, Rubenowstr. 3, R 1.05

In The Tourist. A New Theory of the Leisure Class, Dean MacCannell examines the connections between modern concepts of subjectivity, cultural aspects of tourism and concepts of authenticity. For MacCannell, the tourist is not only a specific person who can be categorised into a social group, the tourists, but also a model for modern man. The seminar will take up theories of tourism such as MacCannell's and discuss them in relation to German-language literary texts and films whose subject matter is the experience of travelling and tourism in Italy. Selected texts from the 18th to the 21st century will be used to examine how the gaze of the traveller or tourist creates a modern myth of 'Italianity' (in the sense of Roland Barthes' Mythen des Alltags) and how the concept of 'tourism' is constituted by experiences of foreignness and cultural difference, which also shape the literary texts. The focus will be on representations of Venice, which is not only understood early on as a paradigmatic place for the German 'longing for Italy', but also as a paradigm for the development of tourism. The depictions of Venice (by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, August von Platen, Friedrich Nietzsche, Rainer Maria Rilke, Georg Simmel and Wolfgang Koeppen, among others) will be contrasted in the seminar with texts by authors who wrote during a stay at the Villa Massimo in Rome, including Rolf Dieter Brinkmann's Rom, Blicke and Feridun Zaimoglu's Rom intensiv. Mein Jahr in der ewigen Stadt.
Admission requirements: Before the first session, please read Jonathan Culler's essay 'The Semiotics of Tourism' and the description of the stay in Venice in Goethe's 'Italienischer Reise'. Copies will be made available in the reference work German philology. Knowledge of the text must be proven in the first session.


Tue 6 p.m. - 8 p.m. Colloquium/ Advanced Seminar
4004063, Rubenowstr. 3, R 2.10

As a colloquium, the advanced seminar is intended to provide a framework for the discussion of texts and positions in literary theory and at the same time to be used for the discussion of current research projects as well as exam and master's dissertations or theses.

Tue 6 p.m. - 8 p.m. Colloquium (advanced seminar)
4004058 Rubenowstr. 3, R 1.22

As a colloquium, the advanced seminar is intended to provide a framework for the discussion of literary theory texts and positions on the one hand and to be used for the preparation and discussion of exams, master's dissertations and theses on the other. In order to obtain an overview of requests and topic suggestions in advance, please send a non-binding registration form with a short synopsis of your interests (on literary theory and/or your examination paper or thesis) by email with the subject 'advanced seminar' to eckhard.schumacher@uni-greifswald.de by 15 September 2009. Those interested will then receive further information on the expected programme by e-mail in the week before the start of the semester.


Wed 12 p.m. - 2 p.m. Pop and Literature: Contemporary Literature since 1964 (advanced seminar)
4004041 Rubenowstr. 1 (Audimax building), HS 3

Unlike pop art and pop music, the coupling of pop and literature has caused irritation since the mid-1960s, which has quickly led to fundamental discussions about the state of contemporary literature. What exactly pop could mean in this context is often just as unclear as the question of what literature actually is. The main seminar will look at these irritations from both a literary-historical and systematic perspective and discuss them using the example of German-language texts from the 1960s to the present. One starting point of the considerations is the thesis that pop cannot be reduced to a clearly definable genre context that can be captured in literary history under the keyword 'pop literature', but that the connection between pop and literature nevertheless reveals recurring problems, concepts and distinctions that are also relevant for further considerations on the concept of contemporary literature - such as the fixation on the present, which is not only Rolf Dieter Brinkmann's programme: "... jetzt, jetzt, jetzt, ad infinitum!"
Access requirements: Before the first session, please read Rolf Dieter Brinkmann: 'Angriff aufs Monopol. Ich hasse alte Dichter'', Rainald Goetz: 'Subito' and Andreas Neumeister: 'Pop als Wille und Vorstellung'. The texts can be found in the anthology Pop seit 1964, ed. by Kerstin Gleba and Eckhard Schumacher, Cologne: KiWi 2007. Copy templates will be provided. The lecturer reserves the right to carry out a suitable validation of access requirements in the first week of lectures.


Thu 8 a.m. - 10 a.m. Tourism and Literature: Arrival in America (advanced seminar)
4004043 Rubenowstr. 2, SR 1

As you enter New York harbour, the Baedeker travel guide to North America, first published in 1893, reveals ‘a magnificent picture’. Like the harbour, which "opens up" the "first view" of America on arrival, the "Statue of Liberty" lying "almost in the middle of the fairway" is also awarded a star of interest. The Statue of Liberty is not only presented as the "greatest work of art of old and new times", but also as an excursion destination that "offers a magnificent view of New York and its surroundings". Here, a shift in the view of the 'New World' can be observed for the first time in the period between the 1880s and 1920s: New York and the USA no longer appear merely as a promise for emigrants, symbolised by the Statue of Liberty on arrival in America, but also as a tourist attraction. The seminar will examine how this shift in the gaze is portrayed in novels, essays, travelogues and guidebooks as well as on postcards and photographs. In order to provide a historical perspective, texts from the second half of the twentieth century will be discussed alongside texts from around 1900 (e.g. by Ludwig Fulda, Arthur Holitscher, Franz Kafka) (e.g. by Uwe Johnson, Wolfgang Koeppen, Heiner Müller).
Admission requirements: Before the first session, please read the first two chapters of Franz Kafka's Der Verschollene and the first thirty pages of Wolfgang Koeppen's Amerikafahrt. Copies will be provided. The lecturer reserves the right to carry out a suitable validation of access requirements in the first week of lectures.


Thu 12 p.m. - 2 p.m. Introduction to German Literature Studies (lecture)
4004011 Loefflerstr. 70, HS (except 26 Nov!)

The lecture introduces students to central questions and problems of German Literature Studies. On the basis of exemplary texts, it sets historical and systematic accents. As a briefing, the lecture is intended to convey an awareness of academic problems that is characterised by openness to irritation and thus enables students to read literary and literary studies texts independently. In addition to the question 'What is literary studies?', the question 'What is literature? The following topics and concepts will be presented: Literary history and literary historiography, history of German studies, literary theory, interpretation and reading, fictionality, author, work and reader. Presentation of the programme in the first session.
