  • German 477: Literature at the Turn of the Century

    3.00 Credits
    Colgate University

    A. Swensen The turn of the century was a time of turmoil. Opposing views clashed and created "modernity." Taboos were shattered; psychology had its heyday; political art stood in contrast t o l'art pour l'a rt; utopias flourished. This course aims to give an idea of the richness and diversity of this era. Readings include not only works by such well-known authors as Heinrich and Thomas Mann, Hauptmann, Schnitzler, George, Hofmannsthal, Rilke, Hesse, and Wedekind, who are more or less part of the literary canon, but also authors who belong to the influential world of trivial literature, such as Hedwig Courths-Mahler, Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, and Karl May. Because literature cannot be separated from its historical context, the political background as well as the music and art of the time will also be part of the course.
