LITFORUM
LitForum: The other than one's own - learning to interpret older German literature
Leader: Anastasia Averkova
Time: Monday, 2nd DS (fortnightly), dates in the OPAL course
Location: TextLab T3 (SLUB, August-Bebel-Straße 18)
Participation is recommended for students currently attending the basic module Older German Literature, but is open to all interested parties. Please register on OPAL.
The LitForum will take place again this semester. It accompanies the basic module Older German Literature as an additional voluntary discussion forum. The focus is on working on and with the texts. Guided by a student teacher, medieval texts are read together, understood and questioned with regard to the legitimation strategies of power and violence structures, constructions of identity or guiding narratives such as that of love inscribed in them. The LitForum is also intended to make exam preparation easier.
