Theme autumn 2023: Mehrsprachigkeit in Literatur und Sprache
Was passiert mit Literatur, wenn eine Autorin oder ein Autor die Sprache wechselt?

In diesem Kurs setzen wir uns mit unterschiedlichen Forschungsansätzen und aus verschiedenen theoretischen Perspektiven mit dem Thema Mehrsprachigkeit in der Literatur auseinander, sowohl in Bezug auf historische Epochen als auch in der Gegenwartsliteratur.
Im Kurs werden Texte von unter anderem Thomas Mann, Cia Rinne, Yoko Tawada, Kurt Tucholsky und Peter Weiss behandelt.
