This course will aim for intermediate-level proficiency in understanding, speaking, and writing contemporary idiomatic German with emphasis on conversation. Essential grammar review, exercises, and oral reports will be based on the reading and discussion of such materials as edited TV broadcasts, letter-writing, and short essays. Since significant linguistic progress cannot be achieved in 201 alone, students wishing to acquire proficiency should plan to take both 201 and 202 in sequence. |

In this course we will read short stories, novels, and letters of Kafka with an eye to the artistic and literary trends of his time (expressionism, surrealism, art nouveau), the uniqueness of Kafka’s writing, and his influence upon later writers. Readings include The Judgment, Metamorphosis, and The Trial; we will examine themes such as unappeasable authority, inescapable guilt, and the individual marooned in an incomprehensible and perhaps merciless world. (Listed as both LACS 233-54 and GRMN 233-10.) |
