Department of Germanic Studies Department of Germanic Studies Reading List for the M.A. and Preliminary Examinations German Revised 4/08 General Description Scope of this list This reading list is the basis for the departmental Master's (oral) and Preliminary (written and oral) Examinations and covers the general areas of literature and culture, synchronic and diachronic linguistics, and applied linguistics and pedagogy. The literary/cultural area is divided into four periods: I -- Medieval, II -- Renaissance through Baroque, III -- Enlightenment through Realism, and IV -- Naturalism to the Present. Each section of the list contains texts which you are expected to read in their entirety, unless otherwise specified. At the end of each literary/cultural period are a number of recommended reference works which you are encouraged to consult to help situate the specific texts you read into the broader cultural and historical context. Further, here are standard edited reference works for the whole of German literature: Bahr (ed.), Geschichte der deutschen Literatur De Boor & Newald (eds.), Geschichte der deutschen Literatur Gilman & Zipes, Yale Companion to Jewish Writing and Thought in German Culture (1096-1996) Glaser (ed.), Deutsche Literatur: Eine Sozialgeschichte Grimminger (ed.), Hansers Sozialgeschichte der deutschen Literatur Zmegac (ed.), Geschichte der deutschen Literatur For German poetry, the standard anthology is Echtermeyer's Deutsche Gedichte; this will serve as the source from which selections for Periods 3 and 4 will be made. Copies are available for checkout from the Graduate Coordinator. For Period 2, a copy packet will be available; for Period 1, be sure to check edition information. Note, too, that a great number of these texts are available for free online at <http://gutenberg.spiegel.de/>, Project Gutenberg-De, which also has a large corpus for sale on DVD at a very reasonable price -- a real resource for your future teaching needs, and convenient.

  • Andreas Gryphius - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Andreas Gryphius - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Andreas Gryphius(11 October 1616 – 16 July 1664) German lyric poet and dramatist, was born on the 11th of October 1616, at Grossglogau in Silesia, where his father was a clergyman. The family name was Greif, latinized, according to the prevailing fashion, as Gryphius. Left early an orphan and driven from his native town by the troubles of the Thirty Years’ War, he received his schooling in various places, but notably at Fraustadt, where he enjoyed an excellent classical education. In 1634 he became tutor to the sons of the eminent jurist Georg von. Schonborn (1579—1637), a man of wide culture and considerable wealth, who, after filling various administrative posts and writing many erudite volumes on law, had been rewarded by the emperor Ferdinand II. with the title and office of imperial count-palatine (Pfalzgraf). Schonborn, who recognized Gryphius’s genius, crowned him poela laureatus, gave him the diploma of master of philosophy, and bestowed on. him a patent of nobility, though Gryphius never used the title. A month later, on the 23rd of December 1637, Schonborn died; and next year Gryphius went to continue his studies at Leiden, where he remained six years, both hearing and delivering lectures. Here he fell under the influence of the great Dutch dramatists, Pieter Cornelissen Hooft (1581—1647) and Joost van den Vondel (1587—1679), who largely determined the character of his later dramatic works. After travelling in France, Italy and South Germany, Gryphius settled in 1647 at Fraustadt, where he began his dramatic work, and in 1650 was appointed syndic of Glogau, a post he held until his death on the 16th of July 1664.

Over the past few years, scholars have been devoting increasingly more attention to Wolfram’s Willehalm, primarily because of Gyburg’s so-called Toleranzrede and its theological implications. The aim of the present paper is to analyse the narrative construction of the concept of tolerance by examining how the figure of Gyburg and its interaction with other narrative instances (i.e. the narrator and other characters) in Wolfram’s work are constructed on the diegetic level to articulate a complex discourse on religious alterity from different standpoints, both within and outside the Christian world.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 l a s g o w \ £5 OG Abstract The Neues SchloB in Pappenheim commissioned by Carl Theodor Pappenheim is probably one of the finest examples of neo-classical interior design in Germany retaining a large amount of original furniture. Through his commissions he did not only build a house and furnish it, but also erected a monument of the history of his family. By comparing parts of the furnishing of the Neues SchloB with contemporary objects which are partly in the house it is evident that the majority of these are influenced by the Empire style. Although this era is known under the name Biedermeier, its source of style and decoration is clearly Empire.

    EXHIBITION REVIEWS and located anything that looks Biedermeier in a bourgeois milieu. The traditional view has recently come under damaging scrutiny. Dr Haidrun Zinnkann in a study of furniture produced in Mainz - an important centre of manu- facture - has looked at cabinet-makers' order books, finding that it was the aris- tocracy who first commissioned pieces in Biedermeier style. Only around 1830 did the local Mainz middle classes, copying their 'social betters', approach manufac- turers for such furniture.2 What of Biedermeier in Munich? Here, the Stadtmuseum collection is important because so many of its 300-odd Biedermeier pieces can be dated, and their history documented. To be more precise, the mu- seum has fallen heir to a good deal of furniture from the residences of the former ruling house ofWittelsbach. Between 1806 and 1815 the Wittelsbachs commissioned large numbers of pieces in a style that can only be described as Biedermeier (Fig.76). This furniture was for everyday use, while grander rooms were decorated in Empire style. Thus in Munich Biedermeier appears a full decade before 'it should'. It was in- troduced by a court that also had a taste for French furnishings, and the work was not executed by craftsmen in the town 76.
