The program is designed for students who have studied the comprehensive educational discipline "History of Foreign Literature" during the first and second semesters and have the corresponding level of preparation. The student should know the basic literary terms, principles of literary analysis, characteristic features, and works of major representatives of the ancient and Western European literary traditions. They should be able to obtain necessary information from literary reference publications, perform analytical reading of literary works, maintain a reading journal and a terminology dictionary, and possess skills in conducting scholarly research and working with literary studies, as well as delivering complex oral and written presentations.
Course content
The subject of the educational discipline includes studying the patterns of development of the literary process from the late 19th century to the beginning of the 21st century, as well as the peculiarities of issues and poetics of the corresponding periods and movements: Naturalism, Symbolism, Modernism, Expressionism, New Objectivity, Exile Literature, "Literature of Ruins," Group 47, Postmodernism, Literature of the "Turning Point," and more. The course familiarizes students with the works of prominent German, Austrian, and Swiss writers in the context of world culture. The discipline contributes to acquiring a complex understanding of concepts related to the history of German-language literature from the 19th to the 21st century (major trends, genres, styles, ideological and artistic concepts), developing skills in contemporary textual analysis, and improving German language proficiency. Teaching is conducted through lectures, seminar sessions, and independent student work. The final assessment for the semester is in the form of an exam.
