Description:
Migration has become one of the most significant forces shaping contemporary European societies. At the same time, migration is not only a social process but also a cultural and discursive phenomenon. Public debates, media narratives, and cultural texts continuously produce particular representations of migrants, migration, and Europe itself. This seminar examines Europe as a transnational space shaped by migration, mobility, and global interdependencies. Drawing on cultural studies, migration studies, and postcolonial perspectives, the course explores how migration (e.g., forced migration, care work, education, family life, etc.) are represented and interpreted in European contexts.

3.02.141 S Communicating Science - Engaging (with) Nature: Film & Television Documentaries and the Environment
  • Thursday, 14:00 - 16:00, Weekly (from 15.10.26)

Description:
Some of the earliest documentary films, such as In the Land of the Head Hunters (1914) and Nanook of the North (1922), explore the relationship between human beings and their natural environments. Both Head Hunters and Nanook are also (pseudo-)scientific films, (purported) ethnographic studies of "primitive" peoples. As such, they demonstrate the close interconnection between science and motion pictures--indeed, motion pictures became important tools of scientific observation and inquiry practically as soon as they were discovered. In this seminar, we will explore ways in which documentary films frame (scientific) knowledge about nature, the environment, and humankind's varied relationships and entanglements with the natural world. In so doing, we will soon discover that films that seem to center on nature often say more about humans than the natural world they purport to represent. Films likely to be discussed (selection): Nanook of the North (1922) The Living Desert (1953) The Vanishing Prairie (1954) Life on Earth (1979) An Inconvenient Truth (2006) The National Parks: America's Best Idea (2009) Life (2009) Racing Extinction (2015) Anthropocene: The Human Epoch (2017) 		Seminar 2 Rebecca Käpernick, M.A.

3.02.150 S The Post-Apocalyptic American City
  • Wednesday, 14:00 - 16:00, Weekly (from 14.10.26)

Description:
John Winthrop, Puritan leader and first governor of Massachusetts, famously described the British colony in the New World as a "city upon a hill." Winthrop's city established "a model of the American national imagination" (Bercovitch) and epitomized an exceptionalist narrative that imagined "the eyes of all people [...] upon" the Puritans. American cities have since often been associated with the future; however, this future has not always been defined by technological superiority and wealth, with actualizing the seemingly unlimited potentials of the New World. Indeed, post-apocalyptic American cities seem to permeate the popular imagination just as much as optimistic portrayals of American cities. In this seminar, we will discuss representations of various post-apocalyptic American cities. While introductory lectures will trace these representations to the early days of the American national project, our focus will be on cultural artifacts produced since the early twentieth century. We will (largely) progress chronologically through various media. Likely texts: Jack London, The Scarlet Plague (novella, 1912) W.E.B. Du Bois, "The Comet" (short story, 1920) Quiet, Please! (radio program, select episodes, 1947-1949) Dimension X (radio program, select episodes, 1950-1951) Richard Matheson, I Am Legend (novel, 1954) + I Am Legend (movie, 2007) The World, the Flesh, and the Devil (movie, 1959) On the Beach (movie, 1959) Judge Dredd (select comics from the late 1970s and 2012 movie) The Walking Dead (select comics and pilot episode of original TV series) Colson Whitehead, Zone One (novel, 2011) The Last of Us (videogame, 2013) Jeff Vandermeer, Borne (novel, 2017) Blade Runner 2049 (movie, 2017) 		Seminar 2 Dr. phil.

3.02.998 S Multiple Imaginations: Germany's Pasts and Presents Part 1: Colonialism and Migration The course times are not decided yet.
Description:
In this seminar, we will work on different narratives about and representations of what is imagined – in different times and under different (political, social, economic) circumstances – as ‘Germany’. We will explore what ‘Germany’ supposedly is and gain a deeper understanding of it. Inspired by a cultural studies perspective we will look at what and who is represented by whom as ‘German(y)’, who and what is excluded by the narratives, what the specific circumstances for specific narratives are and which counter-narratives can be found. The aim of the seminar is not to study what is called ‘Germany’ or ‘Europe’ but to learn about representation and perspectives of (multiple) self-imaginations, how they are constructed in different narratives and which functions these imaginations serve. The focus of this seminar will be on imaginations that are connected to German and European colonialism and migration in different German eras. In the context of this seminar, we do a joint study trip to the museum Auswandererhaus (German Emigration Center) in Bremerhaven to explore different narratives and representations about Germany’s past and present connected to migration. With a selection of texts and short films we will examine issues of power relations, exclusion and inclusion, and their implications. 		Seminar - Dr. Sunday Omwenyeke

Description:
How can we convey meaning to a hearer successfully? How can a hearer understand what a speaker means? This course aims to provide the students with a holistic understanding of the differences between meaning in and out of context. Therefore, we are going to investigate the elusive line between semantics and pragmatics. Although this course introduces pragmatic theories, it nevertheless relies on practical examples of spoken language to show which areas of natural language these theories describe. In other words: The theories introduced in this course are all applicable to communicative situations we all are familiar with. 		Seminar 2 Moss Bohrer, (keine Pronomen / they)

COURSE DESCRIPTION AND GOALS: In the history of colonialism, encounters and shifting power relations between incoming colonisers and the colonies’ indigenous populations have always played a pivotal role. They have also left a lasting, far-reaching impact that has endured long beyond the formal end of imperialism, into the post-independence histories, cultures, economies and politics of formerly colonised countries. This is especially the case in former ‘settler colonies’ where colonising incomers came to outweigh the indigenous peoples demographically and culturally – for instance in North America, Australia, and New Zealand. Despite the immense cultural and geographical differences between them, indigenous peoples in all those countries have often faced similar problems in their attempts to deal with those (post)colonial situations. This has given rise to ‘Comparative Indigenous Studies’ as a field of academic knowledge production. Comparative perspectives have also informed various projects of political and cultural activism (e.g. in order to intervene in post-colonial public memory discourses, build solidarity, form coalitions and learn from each other’s strategies), as well as literary productions. Comparative perspectives necessarily involve looking beyond one’s own particular culture, even if this is often done with the aim of safeguarding the latter’s specific ethnic traditions and rights. Such outward-looking perspectives have also been associated with a stance that is often called “indigenous cosmopolitanism” – but the cosmopolitan can also go further: beyond ‘merely’ seeking connections with other indigenous peoples, it can also involve an espousal of other transnational and transcultural connections. This course will provide an introduction to these issues, combining regionally specific introductions to selected indigenous cultures from different parts of the globe with comparative perspectives on (potentially) shared problems and strategies, an exploration of trans-indigenous alliances and solidarities, as well as analyses of texts that espouse various kinds of cosmopolitanism. Key topics for our discussions include colonial experiences and trauma, hybridity, survivance, educational and language debates, cultures of memory, interfaces of localism and translocalism, political solidarities, as well as the develop¬ment of new cultural forms. We will also investigate potential problems which comparative and cosmopolitan visions may involve. We will use a wide range of sources, including history and memory discourse, literary texts, statements by politicians and activists, and academic theory. Regions we’ll look at will definitely include (parts of) North American, Australia and New Zealand. Additional comparative perspectives (also on countries with smaller proportions of settlers, e.g. some of the smaller Pacific Islands) may also be included. SET TEXTS: Most of our set texts (literary & non-literary texts, filmic material, etc.) will be relatively short, and their selection will be finalised in consultation with students; to leave enough room for students to choose their own foci of interest. As a starting point, only a single text has already been set, of which you should definitely get a copy (but you don’t need to read this until after mid-December, by which time you’ll have the requisite background knowledge). It is: • Witi Ihimaera, “The Thrill of Falling” (a Maori novella from New Zealand), in Ihimaera, The Thrill of Falling, Auckland: Vintage 2012, pp. 208-312. (In Germany, this is only available as an e-book at present, but the e-book comes in different formats (see publisher’s website for an overview: https://www.penguin.co.nz/books/the-thrill-of-falling-9781869799212), and at least some of those formats (e.g. Amazon Kindle; price c.7 €) can also be read without an e-book reader, via a normal computer via a free app. So you should be able to purchase & read it OK. If you have problems with the e-book format, please contact S. Stroh for emergency advice. We’ll also purchase a copy of the book for the departmental library (Semesterapparat), as another emergency fall-back.) Most of our other set texts, once chosen, will be made available via our online course platform Stud.IP. OPTIONAL EXTRA READING: If you would like to do some preliminary / extra reading on social and literary history, and/or need advice on texts to read in preparation for your presentations, you will be able to access a bibliography of key introductory texts on Stud.IP from the beginning of term onwards. Some of those texts will also be made available via our course bookshelf in the university library. 		Seminar - Elliot Douglas

3.02.151 S The Post-Apocalyptic American City
  • Wednesday, 08:00 - 10:00, Weekly (from 14.10.26)

Description:
John Winthrop, Puritan leader and first governor of Massachusetts, famously described the British colony in the New World as a "city upon a hill." Winthrop's city established "a model of the American national imagination" (Bercovitch) and epitomized an exceptionalist narrative that imagined "the eyes of all people [...] upon" the Puritans. American cities have since often been associated with the future; however, this future has not always been defined by technological superiority and wealth, with actualizing the seemingly unlimited potentials of the New World. Indeed, post-apocalyptic American cities seem to permeate the popular imagination just as much as optimistic portrayals of American cities. In this seminar, we will discuss representations of various post-apocalyptic American cities. While introductory lectures will trace these representations to the early days of the American national project, our focus will be on cultural artifacts produced since the early twentieth century. We will (largely) progress chronologically through various media. Likely texts: Jack London, The Scarlet Plague (novella, 1912) W.E.B. Du Bois, "The Comet" (short story, 1920) Quiet, Please! (radio program, select episodes, 1947-1949) Dimension X (radio program, select episodes, 1950-1951) Richard Matheson, I Am Legend (novel, 1954) + I Am Legend (movie, 2007) The World, the Flesh, and the Devil (movie, 1959) On the Beach (movie, 1959) Judge Dredd (select comics from the late 1970s and 2012 movie) The Walking Dead (select comics and pilot episode of original TV series) Colson Whitehead, Zone One (novel, 2011) The Last of Us (videogame, 2013) Jeff Vandermeer, Borne (novel, 2017) Blade Runner 2049 (movie, 2017) 		Seminar 2 Dr. Christian Lassen

Description:
This course is designed to support your research and writing process when you are about to begin writing – or are in the midst of writing – your BA, MA or doctoral thesis; it will help you develop your ideas into a systematic research project as well as gain a more profound knowledge of postcolonial theories and concepts. In order to facilitate a writing process in which you do not only acquire expertise in the topic of your thesis, but in which you also enhance your writing skills as well as your knowledge in the field of postcolonial studies more generally, we will focus on practical matters first (such as how to prepare a research proposal and how to structure your writing process). Then, we will read up on and discuss those postcolonial theories, concepts and approaches which are the most useful for the research projects in our group. After this, each of you will have an entire session to present and discuss your research project and/or a draft chapter in order to further refine your research design.

3.02.999 S Multiple Imaginations: Germany's Pasts and Presents Part 2: National Socialism and German Reunification The course times are not decided yet.
Description:
The second part of the seminar builds on the main themes of the first seminar on representations, imaginations, narratives and power relations (see announcement for Part 1 in December). The focus this weekend will be on the German culture of remembrance after the Second World War with regard to National Socialism and the so-called German re-unification. We will deal with the question of how the memory of National Socialism in general and voices of Jews and other persecutees and survivors have long been, and still are, warded off and repressed. Further, we will look at how, especially survivors and their descendants have fought for and established spaces of remembrance. With regard to re-unification, the question also arises as to which events/voices and contents are remembered and which are suppressed and why, in societal discourse. Also of interest is how denial is linked to anti-Semitism and racism and how other/counter narratives can challenge anti-Semitic and racist conditions and relations. Part of this seminar is an excursion to the submarine bunker "Valentin" in Bremen-Farge, which was built by forced labourers under National Socialism. In addition, we will use selected texts and films to engage in a conversation about remembrance culture and representations in the German context. It is possible to participate in this second part independent of participation in the first part in December although we recommend you participate in both. 		Seminar - Dr. Sunday Omwenyeke

Description:
The lecture "Research Methods in Linguisitcs" is a one-hour lecture that accompanies a seminar in the linguistic advanced modules (modules ang616, ang617, anf ang618). The weekly lectures cover general methodological contents, such as: - finding linguistic literature - the structure of linguistic research articles - principles of good academic practice - ethics in linguistic research - research questions in linguistic research - instruments of data collection in linguistics research (inlcuding critical discussions) - corpus linguistics as a method of data collection - linguistic posters and visualisations There is no separate form of assessment in the lecture course as all assessment in the advanced modules is done in the respective seminar. In isolation, there are no separate credit points available for the lecture as the lecture needs to be combined with a seminar from the advanced modules. A note to international students: You will not be able to obtain credit points for the lecture in isolation. If you want to obtain credit points, you will need to participate in a linguistic seminar AND take part in the lecture. 		Lecture - Dr. Ilka Flöck, she/ her

  • Wednesday, 12:00 - 14:00, Weekly (from 14.10.26)

Description:
Teaching literature in the EFL Classroom Amongst the current generation of teaching professionals, the question whether literature – both with a capital and a small `l´- should be used in the EFL classroom is usually answered with a resounding “yes!”. For years critics of the competence-based approach have been calling for literature to be re-established as a means of fostering an education that goes beyond a mere acquisition of a certain skill set. In our digital age the number of literary texts available online as well as the products emerging from the communication between readers, texts and authors open up new types of literary discourse and expression transcending age, nationality and educational background. On the other hand, future teachers of English are bound to come across restrictions regarding their choice of literary works as well as the topics connected to them. German Abitur exams in particular require close scrutiny of the curriculum. Set texts and a variety of linguistic and analytical skills will be required to meet the assessment standards stipulated by the Ministry of Education. From primary school through to the final years of secondary school and Abitur-level both extensive reading of literary texts as well as reading with a view of composing a piece of writing are expected to be fostered systematically. The seminar aims at providing an overview of different literary texts, approaches and methods viable in the EFL classroom. Starting with visualisation techniques, story telling, scenic interpretation and creative writing participants are expected to get actively involved in classes by creating their own literary products and exchanging ideas about the viability of different didactic approaches. Other than that, everyone will be required to provide short keynote presentations on a selection of topics connected to teaching literature. You can put your name down for topics from the second week of term. Against the backdrop of current research in Didactics, participants are expected to analyse teaching and learning materials as well as (excerpts from) current textbooks for various age groups. Different approaches towards teaching literature will be explored. The development of units of work and lesson plans will be informed by relevant theories of language learning and teaching and can be critically applied to a selection of tasks, resources and ideas for projects connected to teaching literature. Lesson planning and the analysis of lessons involves • realistic target setting, • allowing for differentiation, • an appropriate choice of materials and media • as well as devising appropriate assessment strategies. Schemes of work submitted by students will be put under close scrutiny by peers and the lecturer in order to determine their viability in the classroom. Ideally, concepts and strategies will be put into practice during subsequent internships. As regards the submission of coursework as part of your final assessment, all participants are required to hand in a portfolio showing their ability to plan and reflect on lessons and schemes of work or tasks.

3.02.981 S Travel Narratives in Fiction and Beyond
  • Wednesday, 16:00 - 18:00, Weekly (from 14.10.26)

Description:
Travel narratives have been part of the European public sphere for centuries. They are connected with the histories of globalisation, of European imperial expansion, of 'exploration' and colonialism. Whether they are labelled as novel or memoir, they straddle the boundaries between literature, history and personal reporting, between fact and fiction, in their own characteristic ways. The term travel covers a wide range of different forms and purposes of mobility, individual and collective. It is entangled in multiple and complex ways with the geopolitical frameworks in which it occurs and is made possible (or indeed obstructed). There has been an abundance of research done already on many of the aspects of travel writing from the late middle ages to the present, and across different cultural contexts of travel and travel literature. Against this background, this course offers spotlights on a diverse set of travel narratives, from the late 17th century (parts of William Dampier's New Voyage Round the World) across 18th century novelistic travel writing (Laurence Sterne's Sentimental Journey) and 19th century exploratory travel (Mary Kingsley's Travels in West Africa) to contemporary 21st century travel writing (Emmanuel Iduma's A Stranger's Pose). These texts have been rarely read together, but the combination offers exciting additional insights. Students will become familiar with theoretical approaches to the concepts of travel and travel writing, as well as to their histories (including 'mobilities theory' and 'mobility justice'). We will then move on to engage and examine the various forms of travel writing in our primary texts, and seek out the connections that show how very different texts by very different writers/ travellers mutually shed light on each other. The course will experiment with a combination of two formats: • The groundwork for the seminar will be done in weekly meetings in the traditional seminar format. • This will be complemented in the second half of the semester by a 'student conference', a bloc-meeting where all the student presentations will be given and discussed in a concentrated workshop format. The student conference is planned for Friday January 22 (14-17.30) and Saturday January 23 (10-13, 14-17.30). (Participants should make sure that they can be there for the entire student conference!) A corresponding number of the weekly meetings in December and January will be suspended in compensation for the time required for the student conference. The course will also involve an experimental form of co-teaching, connecting the universities of Oldenburg and Bremen. A course with a parallel programme is being taught at the University of Bremen by Dr Anna Auguscik. The weekly meetings will take place in parallel at each university. The student conference, and presentations, will include all students of both seminars (with complementary rather than identical topics) and will take place at the University of Oldenburg. Students who are enrolled in the MA English Studies may obtain the 3 KP for their "project" if they engage in the preparation and organisation of the 'student conference' (a process that will allow them to gain experience with an important practical side of academic research). Please contact me if you are interested in being part of the student conference organisation team. PRIMARY TEXTS - Students should purchase and read the following two texts: (NOTE: The use of the right editions matters greatly. Do not pay too much money for an edition that will be useless! There are many overpriced and untrustworthy editions sold on Amazon and other outlets, often with deceptive fake 'scholarly-looking' covers. These are not suitable, and the prices are often higher than for the trustworthy editions. You should be able to find the two trustworthy editions at reasonable prices, either new or second-hand, or indeed as e-books. All those options are suitable!) • Iduma, Emmanuel, A Stranger’s Pose. London: Abuja, 2018. and • Sterne, Laurence, A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy [1768]. Ed. Paul Goring. London: Penguin Classics, 2001. [or alternatively: • Sterne, Laurence, A Sentimental Journey [1768] and Other Writings, ed. Tim Parnell, Oxford World’s Classics, Oxford University Press, 2008.] • Regarding Kingsley's Travels in West Africa and Dampier's New Voyage Round the World, we will work with substantial extracts and selections; these will be made available on Stud.IP.

3.02.996 S Literary Theory for MA Students: Taking Narrative Theory beyond Literary Studies
  • Thursday, 18:00 - 20:00, Weekly (from 15.10.26)

Description:
In recent years, ‘Narrative’ has become a buzz word far beyond literary studies. Many disciplines in the humanities have taken a ‘narrative turn’, and many public debates have revolved around the rise or the rejection of certain ‘narratives.’ But to date, we still seem to be lacking established conceptions for the description and analysis of these diverse kinds of narrative. The field of narratology has produced theoretical approaches and descriptive tools to literary narrative that are familiar to all students of literature today. But a “universal narratology” remains one of the unfinished projects in the theory of narrative. Since the turn of the twenty-first century, a number of proposals has been made in the fields of literary studies and philosophy about how to approach ‘non-literary narratives’. This course will focus on narratives outside the confines of literature. It has a professionalising dimension, since current students may come to work in areas where they encounter ‘non-literary’ narratives, which may be relevant in various forms to their future work settings. The course began approaching this topic in the previous semester, but will be open to new participants. We will recapitulate the recent attempts to theorise and develop analytical toolkits for “factual narratives” as well as our preliminary ideas about how to modify the institute’s ‘narratology handout’ in order to make it work also for non-literary narratives. We will then turn to discuss practical examples. The course will have a total of seven meetings. The course plan will be agreed in the first meeting. I will make suggestions as well as invite suggestions and ideas from the participants. The course should be driven by the specific interests that participants bring to it. The course is open to individual ways of obtaining credits proportional to the type and scope of students’ contributions (generally 3 KP, as part of one of the suitable MA modules; options for BA credits also exist, but unfortunately not within the M.Ed. programmes). Relevant materials will be made available in Stud.IP. 		Exercises 1 Prof. Dr. Anton Kirchhofer
