09W, 10W: 11 Before Germany became a nation state in 1871, language and culture defined its identity. Courses under this rubric will explore various ways in which writers, philosophers, politicians, and artists created and criticized different aspects of this identity. Figures treated will range from Goethe to Freud and from Beethoven to Nietzsche. In 09W, Germany and the East. While âthe Orientâ had already intrigued the earliest German authors known to us, during the Enlightenment fascination with these exotic lands, traveled and imagined, finds its counterpart in Germanyâs growing investment in Eastern Europe. Reading the works of Gellert, Lessing, Goethe, Herder, and Stifter, among others, we will explore eighteenth- and nineteenth-century facets of this cultural parallelism and consider their political ramifications. Conducted in German. Prerequisite: German 3, or equivalent. Open to all classes. Dist: LIT ; WCult: W . Komska.
