HINWEISE FÜR STUDIERENDE
Studierende sollten zu Beginn der Vorlesungszeit und immer regelmäßig nach Aushängen
mit wichtigen Informationen im Gebäude der Anglistik/Amerikanistik bzw. im Internet
https://his.uni-greifswald.de/ Ausschau halten. Aus verschiedenen Gründen kann es z.B. zu
Änderungen des Lehrangebotes gegenüber diesem Verzeichnis kommen.
Bitte kontrollieren Sie auch regelmäßig Ihr universitäres Webmail-Postfach. Das
Lehrpersonal kommuniziert mit Ihnen ggf. über das Selbstbedienungsportal bzw. die
Groupware per E-Mail. Der Login erfolgt mit den zentralen Authentifikationsdaten
(WLAN, LSF, Webmail, etc.), die Sie mit Ihrem Studentenausweis erhalten haben. Sie
können auch Mails von der Uni-Adresse automatisch auf eine andere Adresse umleiten
lassen. Das müssten Sie aber selbst einrichten.
Bitte achten Sie zusätzlich auf aktuelle Änderungen per Aushang im Institut.

Go to https://his.uni-greifswald.de/. You need your university e-mail address and your

INFORMATIONEN UND VERHALTENSREGELN ZUR LSF-EINSCHREIBUNG




Groupware: Bitte kontrollieren Sie regelmäßig Ihr universitäres Webmail-Postfach und
stellen Sie sicher, dass es nicht voll ist. Es ist auch möglich, alle Mails von diesem auf ein
anderes Konto automatisch umleiten zu lassen: Informieren Sie sich gegebenenfalls. Das
Lehrpersonal kommuniziert mit Ihnen über die Groupware (https://groupware.unigreifswald.de) per E-Mail. Der Login erfolgt mit den zentralen Authentifikationsdaten
(WLAN, LSF, Webmail, etc.), die Sie mit Ihrem ersten Studentenausweis erhalten haben.
Zeitraum: Das Einschreibeverfahren findet in zwei Phasen statt. In der ersten Phase
erfolgt die Einschreibung. Nach einer Pause von etwa einer Woche werden die
vorläufigen Teilnehmerlisten veröffentlicht. Studenten können sich dann in der zweiten
Phase für noch freigebliebene Plätze eintragen. Über die genauen Termine und Fristen
wird gesondert weiter unten auf dieser Seite informiert.
Kriterien: Die primären Auswahlkriterien für Lehrveranstaltungen sind die für die
Lehrveranstaltung festgelegte Semesterpriorität (Studienphase, Musterstudienplan) und
die für die jeweilige Lehrveranstaltung ggf. laut Studienordnung vorher zu absolvierenden
Prüfungen/Module.
Sprachpraxis: Studenten dürfen maximal drei Sprachpraxiskurse pro Semester wählen.

Eintragung: Bitte tragen Sie sich nur in diejenigen Lehrveranstaltungen ein, an denen Sie
auch tatsächlich teilnehmen wollen. Eintragen in unverhältnismäßig viele
Lehrveranstaltungen kann Ihre Rückstufung in allen Veranstaltungen zur Folge haben, in
besonders schwerwiegenden Fällen auch Ihre Nichtberücksichtigung.
Abmeldung: Sobald Sie wissen, dass Sie an einer Lehrveranstaltung (z.B. aufgrund einer
Überschneidung) nicht teilnehmen können, sind Sie verpflichtet sich von dieser
Lehrveranstaltung umgehend selbst abzumelden, um ihren Kommilitonen auf der
Warteliste die Teilnahme und die frühzeitige Vorbereitung auf die Lehrveranstaltung (z.B.
Lektüre, Literaturerwerb) zu ermöglichen.
Erste Sitzung: Die erfolgreiche Zulassung per Selbstbedienungsportal ist nicht
rechtsverbindlich. Eine verbindliche Teilnahme treffen die Kursleiter in der ersten
Sitzung. Sie müssen in der ersten Sitzung anwesend sein und gegebenenfalls auch
zwingend zu erbringende Prüfungsleistungen nachweisen (z.B. erfolgreicher Abschluss
des Grundstudiums oder eines vorgeordneten Moduls), da Sie ansonsten ggf. Ihren Platz
an einen Mitstudenten verlieren. Im Umkehrschluss heißt dies, dass es auch ratsam ist, die
erste Sitzung zu besuchen wenn man ‚nur‘ auf der Warteliste steht, da eventuell Plätze frei
werden.
Änderungen: Daten wie Namen, Orte oder Zeiten von Lehrveranstaltungen können sich
ändern. Zudem können Lehrveranstaltungen in seltenen Fällen in Gänze entfallen oder es
können neue Lehrangebote kurzfristig hinzukommen. Bitte achten Sie daher immer zu
Semesterbeginn auf aktuelle Aushänge im Institut (Eingangsbereich und Bürotüren) und
auf der Homepage des IfAA.
Ordnungen: Der Ablauf, die Inhalte und die Prüfungen des Studiums sind in der
Prüfungs- und Studienordnung geregelt. Eine gründliche Lektüre zu Beginn des Studiums
spart langfristig Zeit und Aufwand und macht den Studienablauf durchschau- und planbar.
Prüfungs- und Studienordnungen enthalten die jeweils gültigen Regularien sowie
Musterstudienpläne und Modulhandbücher mit weiteren Informationen zu Inhalt und
Aufbau des Studiums.
Rückfragen: Mit Fragen wenden Sie sich bitte an den Fachschaftsrat oder die
Studienberaterinnen der Anglistik/Amerikanistik oder direkt an die Lehrenden.
WICHTIGE INFORMATIONEN ZUM STUDIENBETRIEB
Prüfungsvorbereitung
Kandidat[inn]en für alle Abschlußprüfungen außer Sprachpraxis müssen sich rechtzeitig
(i.d.R. drei Monate vor dem jeweiligen Prüfungstermin) bei der/dem jeweiligen Prüfer[in]
melden, um sich mit ihr/ihm über die Prüfungsthemen und -schwerpunkte zu verständigen.
European Credit Transfer System (ECTS)
Zu den Kriterien der Punktvergabe für alte Lehramtsstudiengänge sowie für ausländische
Studierende siehe die Anmerkungen auf Seite 45. B.A.- und M.A.-Studierende können die
Richtlinien der Punktvergabe für die Module den jeweiligen Prüfungs- bzw.
Studienordnungen entnehmen.
Internationale Beziehungen
Die Greifswalder Anglistik/Amerikanistik hat internationale Verbindungen zu Einrichtungen
in Europa und Nordamerika. Wer sich für ein Studium in den USA bzw. Kanada interessiert,
kann sich bei Dr. Anette Brauer (Widener University, University of Manitoba, University of
Saskatchewan, allgemeine Fragen zu Fulbright) oder über die Webseite des Akademischen
Auslandsamts informieren; Informationen über ERASMUS -Studienaufenthalte innerhalb der
EU erhalten Sie von Frau Gericke, der ERASMUS Koordinatorin des Instituts.

Öffnung von Sprachpraxis-Kursen für das Masterprogramm Sprachliche Vielfalt /
Language Diversity
Modul Angl-1 ‚English linguistics. Fundamental Concepts and Theoretical Frameworks‘:
identisch mit M2/1 (Master Intercultural Linguistics). Kein Sprachpraxiskurs zu belegen.
Modul Angl-2 ‚English World-Wide: Local and Global Identities‘: besteht wie M2/3 (Master
Intercultural Linguistics) aus der EWL-Vorlesung und dem dazugehörigen Tutorial.
Zusätzlich sollen die Studierenden dieses Master-Programms eine sprachpraktische
Übung nach Wahl belegen.
Modul Angl-3 ‚Discursive Linguistics‘: identisch mit M2/4 (Master Intercultural Linguistics).
Kein Sprachpraxiskurs zu belegen.
Das Modul Angl-5 ‚Anglophone Literatures: Textuality and Mediality as Representations of
Cultural Semantics (Schwerpunktphilologie)‘ speist sich aus zwei literaturwissenschaftlichen
Seminaren/Vorlesungen und einem Sprachpraxis-Kurs aus dem Bereich ‚Written Skills‘.
Wird Anglistik im Rahmen des Masters Sprachliche Vielfalt dagegen als
Vertiefungsphilologie studiert, so ist statt Angl-5 das Modul Angl-4 zu belegen. Dieses
unterscheidet sich von Modul Angl-5 (Schwerpunktphilologie) dadurch, dass kein
Sprachpraxis-Kurs besucht werden muss.
If you have any questions, consult the teaching staff, and contact the chairs in Anglophone
Literature or English Linguistics, or the secretaries’ offices.
Course descriptions for all classes are given below in the main part of this booklet ,

Besides providing a pragmatically based revision of main points of Grammar, this course
aims above all to increase your awareness of the similarities and differences between the two
languages and practice techniques for getting around problems of translation. We shall mainly
work orally, but a written test will be offered in the final week of the semester. Students are
advised to take this course early enough to be able to take the ‘Translation Workshop’ (cf.
below) afterwards, before their final exam. It is essential to be present in the first session of
the semester.

Students will practice listening for specific information (phrases, words, facts), paraphrasing
and interpreting different aspects, and writing global and selective summaries. Furthermore,
students will gain a deeper understanding of regional, historical and cultural contexts in

structuring techniques, style/register, vocabulary, body language, using visual aids, and
effective time management. There will be a number of exercises to expand your vocabulary
and several practice sessions to put the theoretical concepts into action. Students will hold a
final presentation towards the end of the semester. Lastly, we will learn how to formulate a
hypothesis and how the university’s library catalogues and databases can be used to find
appropriate academic literature.

The cultural diversity of the USA and the multitude of issues that the people of this nation
grapple with on a continual basis, will provide us with plenty of opportunity for discussion as
we learn to identify and analyze the various sides of the opinions involved and offer views
based on our very own cultural backgrounds. Students will learn to critically reflect on issues
like gun ownership, (racial) prejudices, or media hypes and present their opinions in well-

English is considered to be today’s most important lingua franca and is spoken in most parts
of the world. This seminar aims to give an impression of how diverse the English language is.
We will start off by analyzing how English spread around the world and what status the
language can have in different contexts and what functions it has to fulfill there. Working in
independent study groups, we will focus on several varieties of English from around the
world, including the big national varieties British and American English and then moving
across the continents dealing with for example AAVE, Indian English, Kenyan English and
Jamaican English. Besides analysing the pure linguistic features of the different varieties
regarding phonetics, lexis and syntax we will also consider the general social, political and
cultural context of the varieties in question and thus learn something about more general
phenomena such as standardization, code-switching, language discrimination and how
language can work as an identity marker.

This course aims to give a thorough grounding in the sounds of English and their correct use
from a theoretical point of view, while paying attention to the practical needs of foreign
learners, particularly those of Germans. What is often known as ‘British Received
Pronunciation’ will be taken as the standard, however attention will be paid to significantly
different features of General American pronunciation and, to a lesser extent, of certain other
varieties.
Together this course and the ‘Introduction to English Grammar’ form the module ‘Practical

More than other components, the lexicon of a language tends to be in constant flux – not only
because of the need to find new words which designate new things (e.g. fresh inventions), but
also because of the wish of the speakers to have differentiated sets of expressions at their
disposal. As a result, the vocabulary reflects both sociocultural processes of change and
linguistic variation. Against this background, it is the aim of this seminar to study the English
lexicon as an open, adaptive system which keeps on evolving and offers a pool of options
from which competent language users may choose. Adopting a speaker-oriented perspective,
we will reflect on particular problems such as word formation, meaning change and sense
relations, but also on denotative and connotative meaning as well as euphemisms and
dysphemisms. Additionally, we will take a look at the creation of neologisms. Last but not
least, we will investigate how dictionary makers systematize the complex and ever-changing
stock of words for different kinds of users.
Sociolinguistics: Language Variation and Change (Hauptseminar)

Di 08-10

Sebastian Knospe
In the 1970s, sociolinguistics emerged as a cross-discipline that took up ideas from both
linguistics and different social sciences and helped to overcome the by then predominantly
structural approach to the scientific study of language. Since then, the field has considerably
diversified, but the aim to study language in relation to its speakers and society, which, in
turn, is linked to the notions of linguistic variability and variation, has virtually remained the
same. In this seminar we will look at the factors responsible for the variation of Present-Day
English, focusing primarily on regional and social background, age and gender. What will be
particularly stressed is the idea that speakers are able to make choices from the linguistic
repertoires at their disposal and that complex mechanisms of identity are involved here. At the
same time, we will trace the interconnections between language variation and change.
Participating in guided group projects, students will not only acquire the competencies they
need for carrying out systematic sociolinguistic research, but due to the broad perspective the
seminar takes will also gain input for possible future projects.

Building on previous knowledge acquired in the module Linguistics I, this class will provide a
more in-depth picture of the morphological structure of English words. We will take a closer
look at the somewhat problematic notion of the word, the linguistic components lexical units
are composed of, and study the different types of morphemes as well as the word-formation
processes found in the English language today. The analytical skills gained will be used for
designing individual student projects.

This tutorial aims to equip students with basic methodological skills that help them to conduct
small research projects in the field of EWL. We will consider different varieties of English
around the globe, focusing more specifically on the status of English in various contexts and
its function(s). Also, we will trace the historical development of different varieties and make
predictions as to the future role of Englishes around the world. With the help of authentic
material (e.g. Internet, TV and film, literature and public signage), this tutorial will try to put
theory into practice and thus to sharpen the students’ analytical skills and their critical
awareness of different varieties of English.

Contrastive linguistics is a linguistic field which seeks to explore the structural differences
and similarities between different languages. It is theoretical and practical at the same time
and as such not only highly relevant to those who learn a second or foreign language and
strive for advanced linguistic competences, but also to teachers and translators. This
colloquium/senior seminar will offer a structural comparison of Present-Day English and
German which are genetically and typologically closely related, but nonetheless different on
many levels. In doing so, we will focus on the sound systems and selected aspects of
morphology and syntax. The class will be rounded off by a comparison of important
pragmatic differences between German and English. Student projects will involve the
collection and interpretation of data illustrating contrasts in the structure of the two
languages.

This lecture series/senior seminar will deal with the constitution of meaning through
interactions in specific contexts, i.e. in particular oral and literate communicative settings. We
shall study theoretical psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic frameworks and authentic
discursive practices: it is a goal of the class to balance abstract academic knowledge and
applied analytical skills (selected topic areas and themes: constructionism with a focus on the
acquisition and complexity of communicative competence, literacy skills; pragmatic
semiotics; discourse analysis with a focus on the discursive construction and mobility of
meaning(s); text linguistics with a focus on functional to dysfunctional narrative texts).
Students are required to collect and analyse data as independent study projects (format
provided in the seminar outline and assignment projects).
Heteroglossia in Urban Spaces Across Cultures (Hauptseminar)

The urban spaces of our time are not only economic and cultural centres, but also loci of
heteroglossic practices in which different codes are exploited for communicative purposes.
This shows that languages are not closed systems, but rather open and ‘mobile’ semiotic
resources which speakers from different backgrounds may readily draw on depending on their
discursive needs, the situation at hand and the addressees. This seminar will introduce
students to various manifestations of heteroglossia, e.g. language and variety mixing in oral
and written use and multilingualism in public space (linguistic landscapes), looking at
examples from around the globe in their respective sociocultural settings.

This seminar will focus on various issues connected to the concept of bilingualism in order to
describe implications of bilingualism for the educational sector. As a basis, we will start out
by analyzing the language acquisition process in general. We will then use this knowledge to
see how bilingual language development differs from the monolingual acquisition process and
distinguish further between early bilingual individuals and learners of a second language.
After discussing factors that influence the acquisition of a second language we will consider
relevant concepts such as code-switching and transfer. The second part of the seminar will
then deal with aspects of bilingual education, introducing different types of bilingual
education, their different focus groups, aims and strategies. We will consider educational
practices in different countries trying to draw conclusions for bilingual education within the
German school system.

In this linguistics course, students will take an in-depth look at the syntax of English and
some of the different approaches that try to account for it, by means of hand-on activities
related to English grammar. Of course, the structure of English is only one of the many ways
in which human language can be structured, so we will also look at - and work with - other
languages. By exploring the rich structural variation found in the world's languages (language
typology), as well as their underlying unity (language universals), students will gain insight
into how language works. Thus by putting the structure of English into the context of the
languages of the world, students will become aware of the possible ways in which human
language can be organised, and deepen their understanding of the structure of English.

‘Satire,’ according to Swift, ‘is a sort of glass wherein beholders do generally discover
everybody’s face but their own, which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in
the world, and that so very few are offended with it.’ To others, like Ian Jack, ‘satire is born of
the instinct to protest; it is protest become art.’ In this seminar, we will look at the art – and
the various faces – of satire, its aims, methods, strategies, and theories, by reading satirical
texts ranging from Horace and Juvenal to contemporary novels. We will discuss the
difference between popular and literary, dystopian and comic satire, the use of exaggeration,
irony, parody, caricature, slapstick and black humour. One focus will be on the eighteenth
century as the golden age of satire: the verse and prose satires of Alexander Pope and
Jonathan Swift, and the difference between lampoon and libel, satire ad hominem and satire
against mankind. Depending on your interest, we will also select two or three more recent
novels (e.g. by Orwell, Huxley, Waugh, or even Terry Pratchett, if we can agree on any one of
his numerous books).

Why study literature? Especially the prospective teachers among you will be confronted with
this question, if not already during your studies (‘and what can you do with that?’), then while
teaching English at Abitur level. Why do we enjoy reading? What if we don’t? Does reading
make us better human beings? How do we construct meaning? There are, as you know, no pat
answers to these questions. In this seminar, we will explore various possibilities, and think
about possible answers, by reading some key texts – both theoretical and philosophical, both
thought-provoking and enjoyable – on art, Bildung, education, hermeneutics, interpretation,
reading, and this stuff called literature (e.g. by Mikhail Bakhtin, H.G. Gadamer, Richard
Rorty, Susan Sontag, et al.).

Chances are that - if you are a Trekkie or a Trekker – you recognize the course title’s
reference to a character’s signature line of a series which became a 1990s spin-off before
another spin-off, sequels, prequels, revivals, ‘rewritals’ in what appears to be a never ending
story of global success since 1966 (with a few dips, of course).
Ringers, X-Philes or Star Wars fans may not relate to Captain Picard but perhaps saw their
‘force awaken’ when watching the first trailer of J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Wars make-over.
Have you ever wondered why? Is it just a matter of taste? Is it high movie art that just
convinces the viewers ‘naturally’? A clever milking of cash cows, ‘free’ merchandise
included? Which role do fan cultures play in the movie business? Politics and the overall
zeitgeist?
In a time when media diversification, celebrity (turn-over) culture and self-made YouTube
‘klick’ millionaires seem to oppose, if not prevent, the very idea of cultural phenomena, what
are the mechanisms behind those prolonged success stories? Is Star Trek dead because L.
Nimoy died or will Spock live forever even without a new movie?
32
The course will not offer you a recipe for planning your very own cultural phenomenon.
However, we will try to analyze the mechanisms behind media business, celebrity making,
and fandom that may play essential roles in the survival of cultural constructs based on a
complex case study of Star Trek.
And yes, Ringers, Star Wars fans and the like…you are welcome to add your very own
insights and experiences, of course.

This lecture will provide a survey of American literature from the colonial period until today.
We will look at the way that the particular history of North America continually shaped its
literature, from the religious writings of the early settlers and the revolutionary writings that
33
led up to independence through the increasingly successful attempts at finding a genuinely
American literary voice, and all the way to the ethnic and aesthetic diversifications that
particularly mark the 20th century. The aim is to help students put individual texts into a larger
context.

The Genteel Tradition and Nineteenth-Century American Culture
(Hauptseminar: Lit. & CS)
SWS
Mi 08-10

Timo Müller
Histories of nineteenth-century American culture often focus on a handful of canonic figures
like Ralph Waldo Emerson, Herman Melville, or Emily Dickinson, most of whom were little
known to their contemporaries. The most revered writers of the nineteenth century were those
grouped under the label ‘the genteel tradition.’ The word ‘genteel’ referred to well-born,
stylish people, and the writers of the genteel tradition wanted art to reflect highest virtues as
well as stylistic perfection. Given the rapid transformation of the United States into a
capitalist industrial society, the genteel writers seemed increasingly out of touch in the later
nineteenth century, but they held on to their traditional aesthetic and idealistic approach. This
seminar will explore the genteel tradition as a lens through which nineteenth-century
American culture can be understood. It will address the British models of the genteel tradition
(Wordsworth, Tennyson, Arnold); its main proponents in the United States (Bryant,
Longfellow, Stickney); but also writers of narrative fiction who questioned genteel ideals
from a psychological (James), social (Howells), or racial (Chesnutt) point of view.

The sonnet is one of the longest-lived forms in English literature. It entered the English
language in the 1550s, right after the shift from Middle to Modern English was completed,
and has been used continuously ever since. It thus provides a lens through which almost the
entire history of British and American literature can be studied and understood. This seminar
will trace the development of the sonnet from Shakespeare and his contemporaries to presentday poets like Rita Dove, an African American writer with a half-Germany family, who are
attracted to the sonnet not least because its multicultural heritage reflects their own lives and
identities. The seminar will cover major periods of English and American literary history: the
Renaissance, the Commonwealth, Romanticism, Victorianism, Modernism, and
34
Postmodernism. A wide variety of individual sonnets will be examined with regard to both
their cultural-historical backgrounds and their specific formal qualities.

19th century America was characterized by an enormous territorial expansion, wars, and
industrial and social changes of almost unbelievable proportions. Women participated in all of
those developments but traditional American history rarely ever focuses on their contributions
in those years. We will examine women’s roles in shaping American society in the 19th
century across constructed borders of ethnicity and class, and discover that, while legal
equality had not yet been achieved by the end of the century, American women could no
longer be ignored either as a group or as individual leaders and role models in progressive
societal movements. The course will include readings of texts written by American women of
that time and historical and cultural analyses.

Jörg Weber
‘The Sea’ has been a source of inspiration and creativity from the very beginnings of British
and North American literature and culture. Broadly speaking, humans project their emotions
onto the sea and feel emotions when they are at or near sea. Authors, artists, musicians, and
filmmakers have portrayed humanity’s nautical fears, dreams, hopes, and legends. The sea
can be a restless and endless contact zone for people and ideas, an idyllic or dangerous refuge
from the world, and a setting for intense drama and emotion. In this course we will study
excerpts from novels and novellas as well as short fiction, poetry, fine art (esp. J.M.W. Turner
and Edward Hopper), music and films that depict ‘the sea’ and we will try to identify and
interpret maritime themes, motifs and symbols and how those are constructed by the
writer/artist.
Among the authors and texts/excerpts discussed will be (a full list of texts will be published
on HIS/LSF):
 Short stories: Crane, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Kipling, Melville, Poe, Ustinov
 Excerpts from reports/novels/novellas: Defoe (Robinson Crusoe, 1719), Darwin (The
Voyage of the Beagle, 1839), Melville (Moby-Dick, 1851) and Hemingway (The Old
Man And The Sea, 1952)

African American Poetry and Hip Hop (Hauptseminar: Lit.)

Timo Müller
In many respects, hip hop emerged out of the African American poetry scene of the 1960s and
1970s. During that period the ‘Black Arts Movement’ redefined poetry as an oral, communal,
and performative activity. At the same time, spoken-word artists like Gil Scott-Heron and The
Last Poets blurred the boundaries between performance poetry and music. African American
cultural techniques like rapping, toasting, and signifying were highly valued and became core
elements of the new black aesthetic. This seminar will begin with a careful survey of
twentieth-century African American poetry and then trace the transformations of traditional
written poetry, first into a performative activity, then into the new genre of hip hop. It will
also offer a theoretical perspective on the intermedial relations between music and the written
text and between poetry and hip hop.

The first historian of the American Revolution, David Ramsay, wrote in 1789, “In
establishing American independence the pen and the press had merit equal to that of the
sword”. In this seminar we will take a look at the role that literature played in the conflict that
gave birth to the American nation. Between 1763 and 1789 the slowly escalating war between
the American colonies and the British mother country was accompanied by a wealth of
literature that found diverse ways to articulate foundational national values, inspire unity and
perseverance, and demonize the enemy. We will read and discuss pamphlets of authors like
John Dickinson, Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams, the satires of Benjamin
Franklin, the poetry of Philip Freneau, Francis Hopkinson, and Ann Bleecker, and the plays of
Hugh Brackenridge and John Leacock. The fervent spirit of these texts will be contrasted with
the more somber tone that pervades the literary reflections of the Revolution in the first half
of the 19th century in works by Washington Irving, James Fenimore Cooper, Nathaniel
Hawthorne, and Herman Melville.

Sherman Alexie (Spokane/Coeur d’Alene, b. 1966), a pop star among contemporary Native
American writers, is best known for his humorous commentary on Native Americans’
experience on and off reservations. Indian Killer is different: darker, with elements of gothic
and mystery writing. In its complexity, it offers deep, at times chilling insights into the growth
of racial violence, questions the constructions of identities and revisits Native American
history of the end of the 20th century.
The in-depth reading of Alexie’s novel from 1996 will focus not only on the narrative itself
but will place the various cultural and political issues reflected in it into a larger Native

‘The business of the poet and the novelist is to show the sorriness underlying the grandest
things and the grandeur underlying the sorriest things.’ (Hardy’s notebook, 1885)
The novels of Thomas Hardy paint a picture of rural and small-town life in south-western
England in the latter part of the 19th century. His view of life is ultimately tragic, and the fact
that his last novels shocked the reading public and critics may have been the reason why
Hardy wrote only poetry for the rest of his long life. The very memorable stories and
characters prompt us to think about questions of gender, class, education, social progress and
more. We will also discuss films of the two novels that are the basis of the seminar. (Film
sessions on at least two Thursdays to be agreed, starting at 18:00)
Primary texts: Far From the Madding Crowd (1874) and Tess of the D’Urbervilles (1891)

Like many non-American film cultures in the Anglophone world, Australian cinema exists on
the margins of a Hollywood-dominated industry. Yet, since the 1970s, when the government
started a massive campaign to stimulate domestic film production, Australian film has carved
out a niche for itself with a unique yet diverse approach to the medium. In this seminar we
will watch and discuss a variety of films from directors like Peter Weir, Gillian Armstrong,
Fred Schepisi, Bruce Beresford, George Miller, Jane Campion, Paul Hogan, Phillip Noyce,
John Hillcoat, and Baz Luhrmann. We will explore the industrial and socio-political context
of Australian film, its aesthetic strategies with its peculiar combination of artfulness and
commercial appeal, its efforts to provide, affirm, but also critically interrogate a national
cultural identity, its reflection of the country’s troubled colonial history, its appreciation of
cultural diversity, particularly after the groundbreaking Mabo decision in 1992, and its
positioning towards American cinema, particularly in its treatment of genre.

During the Elizabethan Age, women were considered good only if they held their tongues.
Virginia Woolf famously invented ‘Judith Shakespeare’, a fictive, gifted sister of the famous
playwright, for whom she could only envision an early death, as any writing career would
have been impossible for her. The more striking are Shakespeare’s outspoken heroines: Juliet,
Katherine (in The Taming of the Shrew), Portia (in The Merchant of Venice), Rosalind (in As
You Like It), or even Lady Macbeth, to name but a few. In this seminar we will read various
plays with a focus on the female characters, their ‘voices’ and actions, strength and wisdom.
Did they have an impact on the situation of real women? ‘Feminist Shakespeareans are also
interested in how the plays may reflect real women as well as how they help produce and
reproduce ideas about women that then shape, perpetuate, or even disturb prevailing
conditions of femininity. For ‘woman’ is never an already accomplished, cold, hard, selfevident fact or category, but always a malleable cultural idea as well as a lived reality that, to
use a Derridean formulation, always already has a history’ (Dympna Callaghan). There will
also be the opportunity to engage in a conversation with the Theater Vorpommern, which will
stage The Tempest during the autumn, to discuss Miranda’s role and the general joys and
difficulties of producing a Shakespeare play.

Margitta Kuty
Dieser Grundkurs bietet die theoretische Einführung in die Fremdsprachendidaktik und bildet
den obligatorischen Einstieg in die fachdidaktische Ausbildung.
In diesem Grundkurs erhalten die Teilnehmer/innen zunächst einen kurzen geschichtlichen
Überblick über die Entwicklung der Fremdsprachendidaktik als wissenschaftliches
Fachgebiet, lernen wichtige Bezugswissenschaften kennen und erfahren mehr über die
aktuellen sprach- und bildungspolitischen Rahmenbedingungen. Anschließend werden
Aspekte des Spracherwerbs und der Kompetenzentwicklung unter Einbezug der
Kenntnisbereiche und Sprachtätigkeiten ebenso beleuchtet wie Fragen der
Literatur/Kulturdidaktik,
des
Einsatzes
unterschiedlicher
sprachspezifischer
Unterrichtsmethoden und Möglichkeiten der Beurteilung und Evaluation im
Fremdsprachenunterricht.
Für Lehrämter alt: Die erfolgreiche Teilnahme an diesem Grundkurs ermöglicht den Zugang
zum sprachspezifischen Teil II (Schulpraktische Übung). Die erfolgreiche Teilnahme an
beiden Veranstaltungen (I und II) ergibt einen von der Lehrerprüfungsverordnung
geforderten Leistungsnachweis.
Für Lehrämter neu: Zu dieser Vorlesung gibt es begleitend ein Proseminar (‚Getting
started‘). Der Besuch beider Veranstaltungen ist für die Zulassung zur Modulprüfung
notwendig.

Films are popular with young learners. Watching films plays an important part in (young)
people’s lives. Why not use them effectively to learn English? There are quite a lot of modern
series and/or films that have grown more complex and become intellectually more
demanding. In this seminar we are going to find out what is meant by film literacy and filmbased language learning. Short, medium and long formats – among others YouTube videos,
commercials, sitcoms and young learners’ films – will be discussed. Theoretical discussions
will be the basis for concrete lesson plans. At the end of this seminar each participant will
have some theoretical background and a list of useful films with some ideas how to use them
for English learning in the classroom.

There are a few expressions regarding teaching a specific subject through a foreign language
which need to be interpreted and clarified. Moreover, different models, principles and initial
ways of introducing English in specific subject classes will be analysed. Questions on how to
deal with the subject content, the target language, mistakes, grammar and/or marks will lead
to different discussions. After a period of theoretical sessions you will do a short practical
39
bilingual teaching project at one of Greifswald’s schools. At the end of the course you will
have a collection of literature and appropriate material on bilingual teaching concerning your
specific subject and a first feeling and experience of how it can work in the classroom.
ONLY for prospective teachers with other specific subjects (except German and other
languages) and a Schein ‘Schulpraktische Übungen’ for at least one of the subjects.

In a pluralistic society of diverging personal und cultural values we are faced with a more and
more heterogeneous learner population. AND especially for Gymnasium teachers:
Homogeneous groups of learners have never existed. The challenge is not only to accept
heterogeneity but to find a positive approach and a productive exposure to dealing with
foreign language learning in heterogeneous learner groups. We will discuss the many faces of
heterogeneity and the importance of differentiated instruction. Secondly, we will examine
questions on classroom management and present opportunities for creating a positive and
effective learning environment for both individual/independent as well as cooperative
learning within a ‘whole class’ situation.

Neben Fragen der Organisation des Schulpraktikums II liegt der Schwerpunkt der Treffen in
der Begleitung vor, während und nach dem Schulpraktikum. Wir beschäftigen uns vor allem
mit Fragen der kontinuierlichen und prozessorientierten Fremd- und Selbstreflexion mittels
Portfolio. Zudem müssen Studierende je Unterrichtfach eine Aufgabe zum Forschenden
Lernen erfüllen. Für den Englischunterricht geht es um eine theoriegeleitete Fragestellung, die
sich auf einen Aspekt des Englischunterrichts bezieht und sich im Rahmen einer kleinen
Untersuchung beantworten bzw. überprüfen lässt. Wir erkunden u.A. Gütekriterien und
Prozessstrukturen forschenden Lernens (plan – act – observe – reflect), den Weg zur
geeigneten Forschungsaufgabe und die Rolle von Forschern und ‚Beforschten‘. Anschließend
gehen wir gemeinsam auf die Suche nach geeigneten Forschungsmethoden und
Möglichkeiten der Datenauswertung/-interpretation für Ihre Aufgabe. Im Zweiten Teil des
Kolloquiums diskutieren und reflektieren wir die Ergebnisse Ihres Schulpraktikums.

detaillierte Einschreibung/Einweisung in die einzelnen Gruppen statt, an der alle
Studierenden, die sich vorher bereits online generell für die Veranstaltung einschreiben,
teilnehmen müssen. Bitte auf entsprechende Aushänge zu Beginn des neuen Semesters
achten.
Nun wird es ernst: Die im Grundkurs theoretisch erworbenen Kenntnisse gilt es, in der Praxis
anzuwenden und zu reflektieren. Gruppen von max. sieben Studierenden unterrichten in einer
Klasse Englisch. Jeder/jede Studierende wird die Möglichkeit erhalten, zwei
Unterrichtsstunden eigenverantwortlich zu planen,
durchzuführen und zu evaluieren. Dabei werden sie durch die entsprechende Lehrkraft und
