Literature in the Language Classroom, 2 CP (Ü), 3 CP (S)
2 st. mo 16-18 GB 03/49
This course addresses central questions of using literary texts in the language
classroom, such as why literature might also be beneficial from a language learning
perspective, what texts are suitable for different learner levels, or how we can go
about dealing with literature in an inspiring and motivating way. Focussing in
particular on narrative texts, both theoretical issues (e.g. intercultural readings) as
well as more practical matters (e.g. lesson planning) will be explored. As an
exemplary novel we are going to look into Auster’s ‘Moon Palace’ in more detail –
which students must therefore have a copy of and read by late May.
Requirements for credit points: active participation, final written test or seminar paper
(depending on students’ curricular needs)
Required texts: A reader will be available at the beginning of the semester (in
GB5/33). Students also need to buy a copy of ‘Moon Palace’ by P. Auster

introduction to this field of teaching certain school subjects (primarily geography,
