Book Synopsis Survey of English Literature and Culture by : Hartmut Ilsemann
Download or read book Survey of English Literature and Culture written by Hartmut Ilsemann and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die ursprüngliche Version dieses Überblicks über die englische Literatur- und Kulturgeschichte bestand aus einzelnen A4-Blättern, die jeweils zwanzig Jahre abdeckten. Oben auf der Seite wurden die englischen Herrscher genannt, darunter die schottischen Könige. Es folgten Daten zur Geschichte und unten auf der Seite Daten zu Personen, die in Politik, Literatur, Musik und Kultur eine Rolle spielten. Auf diese Weise lieferten fünf Blätter Informationen über ein Jahrhundert. Die Daten 1000 n. Chr. bis 2000 n. Chr. ergaben insgesamt fünfzig Blätter, die seit Jahren im Flur des Englischen Seminars der Leibniz Universität Hannover Epochen und Zeiträume unterteilen und manchmal kurz vor Prüfungen eine letzte Orientierung boten. Die Übersicht wurde von Studenten in einem kulturwissenschaftlichen Seminar erstellt, als Computer und Textverarbeitung zum ersten Mal zur Verfügung standen. Auf Quellen wurde wegen des Übersichtscharakters und des Platzmangels weitgehend verzichtet, was bei wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten normalerweise unabdingbar ist. Erst spätere Ergänzungen stützen sich auf konkrete Quellen. Wenn diese nicht genannt wurden, sind sie der englischen Wikipedia entnommen. In der vorliegenden Fassung wurden drei Seiten mit Informationen zur Besiedlung Englands, zur altenglischen Zeit und zur Christianisierung sowie zwei Blätter zum Zeitraum von 2000 bis 2020 hinzugefügt

This book was released on 2014-05-05 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW COMPANION TO VICTORIAN LITERATURE AND CULTURE The Victorian period was a time of rapid cultural change, which resulted in a huge and varied literary output. A New Companion to Victorian Literature and Culture offers experienced guidance to the literature of nineteenth-century Britain and its social and historical context. This revised and expanded edition comprises contributions from over 30 leading scholars who, approaching the Victorian epoch from different positions and traditions, delve into the unruly complexities of the Victorian imagination. Divided into five parts, this new Companion surveys seven decades of history before examining the key phases in a Victorian life, the leading professions and walks of life, the major literary genres, the way Victorians defined their persons, homes, and national identity, and how recent “neo-Victorian” developments in contemporary culture reconfigure the sense we make of the past today. Important topics such as sexuality, denominational faith, social class, and global empire inform each chapter’s approach. Each chapter provides a comprehensive bibliography of established and emerging scholarship.

Book Synopsis The Condition of English by : Avrom Fleishman
Download or read book The Condition of English written by Avrom Fleishman and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1998-07-23 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that the political correctness controversy has cooled, a time for sober reflection on the field of English has arrived. In this insightful overview of English, and of literary studies, Fleishman employs both historical perspective and pragmatic sense about choices for the future. His approach is to apply recent strategies of contextual understanding to English itself. What can a class analysis tell us about the influence on the profession of the changing American socioeconomic system? What are the likely intellectual and professional outcomes of the curricular embrace of minority literatures, neglected authors, and popular culture? Beyond stimulating self-evaluation by English educators, this study prepares readers outside the field to selectively encourage new curricular and methodological opportunities.

Book Synopsis Doing English in Asia by : Patricia Haseltine
Download or read book Doing English in Asia written by Patricia Haseltine and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2016-04-13 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doing English in Asia: Global Literature and Culture examines the effect of globalization on the curriculum of Asian universities. As knowledge of the English language has increasingly been understood as necessary to excel in international business, a number of Asian universities have replaced the traditional study of English literature and culture with applied English or English for specified purposes. This edited collection tackles the question of how to teach English language and culture through literature in case studies from practitioners all across Asia. Contributors thus balance the need for students to understand the interface between English cultures and their own with the pressure to prepare them for employment in this changing environment.
Book Synopsis Teaching Early Modern English Literature from the Archives by : Heidi Brayman Hackel
Download or read book Teaching Early Modern English Literature from the Archives written by Heidi Brayman Hackel and published by Modern Language Association. This book was released on 2015-03-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The availability of digital editions of early modern works brings a wealth of exciting archival and primary source materials into the classroom. But electronic archives can be overwhelming and hard to use, for teachers and students alike, and digitization can distort or omit information about texts. Teaching Early Modern English Literature from the Archives places traditional and electronic archives in conversation, outlines practical methods for incorporating them into the undergraduate and graduate curriculum, and addresses the theoretical issues involved in studying them. The volume discusses a range of physical and virtual archives from 1473 to 1700 that are useful in the teaching of early modern literature--both major sources and rich collections that are less known (including affordable or free options for those with limited institutional resources). Although the volume focuses on English literature and culture, essays discuss a wide range of comparative approaches involving Latin, French, Spanish, German, and early American texts and explain how to incorporate visual materials, ballads, domestic treatises, atlases, music, and historical documents into the teaching of literature.
