| "Introduction to Film Theory and CEE Film Historiography " This course will introduce the central questions of film theory and historiography to graduate students who want to pursue these topics at the professional level. What is film history? What is film theory? Are these ideas different from History capital H or Theory capital T? Do film theory and film history always clash? Where do the media named digital, new, or social fit in among these questions? While we will discuss ideas that are not grounded in any specific geographical region, many of our examples and case studies will be taken from the unique histories of Central and Eastern European cinemas. No prior language skills or specific, regional knowledge is required: all texts and films will be accessible in English translation. Theoretical readings will include Freud, Benjamin, Eisenstein, Vertov, Kracauer, Metz, Jameson, Doane, Silverman, and many others. Texts will be read alongside films and clips from Eisenstein, Lang, Tarkovskii, Fassbinder, Muratova, and more. | ||||||||

| Emotions in Ger Drama c. 1800 "Emotions in German Drama around 1800. Hermeneutical and Computational Readings" Emotions play a crucial role in German drama around 1800, serving as key instruments for both character development and aesthetic expression. Writers of this era, such as Goethe, Schiller, Kotzebue, and von Rupp, explore the complexities of human emotions, examining the conflicts between reason and passion, individual and societal expectations. They each consider, to varying degrees, the aesthetics of the stage or advanced aesthetic theories. The investigation of emotions in dramas from this period requires a comprehensive approach that includes close readings of dramatic texts in light of contemporary theories of emotion. Additionally, methodologies from the 'Emotions in Drama' project (http://katrindennerlein.de/digitale-literaturgeschichte/), which uses artificial intelligence to categorize character emotions in 18th-century dramas, are explained and partially implemented. Participants do not need prior experience in programming or Digital Humanities. | ||||||||

| "Prisms of Modern Life: The Dynamics of Small Forms" In Modernity, the rhythm of life accelerates, with ubiquitous effects: the ever-increasing pace in the circulation of information, commodities, and people within complex networks and across various technological channels reshapes traditional systems of knowledge and beliefs and mobilizes once stable ideas of identity. To keep pace, literature increasingly eschews the grand narrative constructions that undergird the novel in the nineteenth century and turns instead to small forms. Fragmented, atomized, but hardly ever self-contained, the small seems uniquely suited for providing snapshots of modern life, wresting meaning from an instance. Though referencing a rich history, small forms come into their own in Modernity. The course investigates the connection between the conditions of modern life and the constraints of small forms. It studies a range of genres, from anecdote and aphorism, to feuilleton, sketch, and reflective prose, to digital short forms of fiction and auto-fiction. Special emphasis will be paid to aesthetic conceptions of form: What are criteria for determining literary smallness? Does small equal short, shortened, compressed, minor, miniaturized, simple, etc.? The course will draw on reading from Hebbel, Kleist, Heine, Rilke, Benn, Kracauer, Benjamin, Kafka, as well as twenty-first century authors, and engage with recent theoretical interventions by Levine, Fuchs, and others. Readings are available in German as well as in English; discussions will be in English. | ||||||||
4 hours. Restricted to graduate students in Germanic studies. Instructor Approval Required Students will attend the faculty-taught culture/literature class. To be properly registered, students must enroll in one Conference and one Discussion/Recitation.
