NEUERE ENGLISCHE LITERA TUR 1500

Vorbemerkung
Diese Lektürevorschläge setzen die Tradition der vom Englischen Seminar seit 1973 in unregelmäßigen
Abständen herausgegebenen "Lektürelisten" fort. Es handelt sich dabei um eine von den Lehrenden des
englischen Seminars getroffene Auswahl, die keinen Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit erhebt. Sie soll
lediglich als Orientierungshilfe und Anregung dienen: es können auch andere Texte gelesen und nach
Rücksprache mit den Dozentinnen und Dozenten zum Prüfungsgegenstand gemacht werden. Dies gilt
um so mehr, als durch die immense Erweiterung des Gegenstandsfelds der englischen Literatur im
weitesten Sinne, das nunmehr die englischsprachigen Literaturen weltweit und zahlreiche
wiederentdeckte Autorinnen zusätzlich einbindet, die Formulierung eines verbindlichen Kanons immer
nur einen beschränkten Zugang eröffnen kann.
Bei der Lektüre im Laufe des Studiums sollte einerseits darauf geachtet werden, dass Texte aus vielen
Epochen und Gattungen Berücksichtigung finden, so dass sich eine möglichst breite Kenntnis der
Literaturgeschichte ergibt. Andererseits sollte man frühzeitig auf Zusammenhänge achten, die später die
Formulierung von Prüfungsthemen erleichtern. Prüfungsthemen können
• gattungszentriert (z.B. „Sonnet Cycles“, „Shakespeare’s Tragedies“)
• epochenzentriert (z.B. „Romantic Poetry“, „19th Century Fiction“)
• themenzentriert (z.B. „Politics in Recent Fiction“, „Changes in Narrative Form“)
oder
• autorzentriert (z.B. „Angela Carter”, „William Golding’s Later Fiction“)
formuliert werden. Der genaue Umfang der Prüfungsthemen ist dabei den jeweiligen Prüfungsordnungen
zu entnehmen – hier schützt frühzeitige Information vor unliebsamen Überraschungen. Die endgültige
Festlegung der Prüfungsthemen sollte sich im Idealfall aus den individuellen Neigungen und Interessen
der Studierenden sowie im Anschluß an die von ihnen besuchten Lehrveranstaltungen ergeben. Das
persönliche Gespräch mit den Lehrenden zur Festlegung der Prüfungsthemen sollte daher auf der
Grundlage von eigenen Vorstellungen und Vorschlägen erfolgen.
Anregungen zur eigenen Lektüre bekommen Sie natürlich nicht nur aus dieser Liste, sondern auch durch
den Austausch mit Lehrenden, Empfehlungen von Mitstudierenden, Entdeckungen in Bibliotheken und
Funden im Buchhandel.

NEUERE ENGLISCHE LITERATUR 1500 – heute
Um den Überblick zu erleichtern, sind die Einträge wie folgt gegliedert: Name des Autors oder der
Autorin, soweit bekannt; Lebensdaten, soweit bekannt; Gattungshinweis (D für Drama, F für Fiction, NF
für Non-Fiction; die vielen Grenz- und Zweifelsfälle machen diese Kategorie allerdings äußerst
problematisch); schließlich Titel des Werkes mit Entstehungs- bzw. Erstveröffentlichungsdaten.
