Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the course of individual migration waves to Germany after 1945 and their treatment in literature and film. Since the 1980s, this topic has gradually come to the fore as authors of migrant origin, equipped with a mother tongue other than German, have come to the fore. They have gradually become more visible and today form an important part of both social and intercultural discourse. The topic of migration, cultural differences and the issue of integration processes are among the important topics reflected in the German media as well as in culture, especially in literature and film.
The student gains insight into the issue of migration and the status of minorities in Germany, knows selected treatments of this topic in German literature and film, and is able to analyse a chosen literary text or film from this perspective.
