PS-Surveying English Literatures: World Texts
Jordan Schnee
Kommentar
The concepts of “world literature” and “world music” are problematic both for what they convey and what they imply. After delving into these terms and alternative concepts for understanding textual production worldwide, we will look at specific examples and situations that illustrate the issues. We will focus on 20th and 21st century English-language literature and music. Texts will include Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe (1958) and Yazoo records contemporary The Secret Museum of Mankind series. Students might also familiarize themselves with theoretical positions in World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise (2019) edited by Gesine Müller and Mariano Siskind.
