GRMN 660: German Literature After 1945:Recording,Remembrance,and Forgetting
3.00 Credits
University of Pennsylvania
Staff. The seminar examines literary and other artistic works that represent contested parts of the recent German past. Particular attention will be paid to the use made of historical facts in lyric poetry, prose, documentary theater, film, and photography. Through close readings of emblematic literary and theoretical texts, we will consider the widespread notion of the past as a narrative contruction, investigate modes of witnessing and testimony, and examine collective and individual repression as well as private and public rituals of remembrance. The material will be considered along with the larger claim of literary discourse, and lyric poetry specifically, as uniquely suited to represent otherwise inaccessible dimensions of experience.

Staff. Conducted as a research seminar, requiring an oral presentation and lengthy scholarly paper. Primary readings and discussion will be in German.

We will cover a variety of genres (poetry, drama, fiction and non-fiction), while also paying attention to the visual arts, in particular the cinema. The primary aims of the course are: to familiarize students with the rich cultural efflorescence of the period; to examine the legacy of the First World War, the rise of the urban metropolis and their various representations; and to assess the course of history as reflected both in and outside the literary sphere. Authors to be covered include: Vicki Baum, Walter Benjamin, Bertolt Brecht, Alfred Doeblin, Ernst Juenger, Irmgard Keun, Siegfried Kracauer, Erich Maria Remarque, Joseph Roth and Ernst Toller.

GRMN 672: Reading Modernity
3.00 Credits
University of Pennsylvania
Jarosinski. Taught in English. In this course we will examine Modernism and the avant-garde as concepts in literature, theater, and criticism. Both terms in the seminar title will be significant to our work, as we ask not only how to define and debate "modernity" today, but also how to understand various notions of "reading" and cultural analysis that emerge during the period and live on in various ways today. In addition, we will take account of important technological, social, and economic developments marking modernity, focusing our attention on the ways in which they intersect and interact with cultural production, cultural politics, and perception itself. Readings will include key texts by representative authors, including Benjamin, Kafka, Barthes, Kracauer, Brecht, Adorno, Baudelaire, Eliot, Woolf, and others. The final section of the course is concerned with contemporary debates surrounding Modernism's relation to Fascism and the juxtaposition of Modernism and Postmodernism.
