Proseminar
PS-Medieval English Literatures: Medieval Short Poems
Wolfram Keller
Comments
This seminar is meant to familiarize students with a variety of short medieval poems, both in Old English and Middle English. Following a few sessions devoted to literary-historical and generic questions, we shall start discussing Old English riddles and elegies, such as The Ruin and The Wanderer/i>. We shall then consider different kinds of Middle English poetry, including both secular (courtly lyrics and love poetry) as well as moral/devotional poetry. The discussions of the individual poems will be primarily text based (close reading), occasionally supplemented by relevant critical essays. A preliminary reading list will be available at the beginning of the semester.
