German Studies at Rice University B.A. in German Studies Contemporary Literary Studies/Socio-Cultural Studies/Film Studies The programs in German at Rice University integrate several disciplinary perspectives in the study of modern Germany. Courses situate German culture within the broad contexts of European history and cover not only the traditional fields of language and literature but also those of history, gender, film, and cultural theory. The department offers instruction in the German language, in German literature (studied in the original and in translation), and in the achievements of German culture surveyed as a whole and in particular themes, genres, and periods. The department stresses linguistic competence, interdisciplinary study, and the role of German culture within the broad context of European history. Studies in film, cultural theory, and gender complement traditional studies of German literature, philosophy, history, and art. The BA in German prepares students for graduate study in German, as well as for careers in law, business, international affairs, economics, and other academic fields. Our language acquisition courses maximize linguistic proficiency and prepare students for study abroad. Our freshman seminars are conducted in small groups and stress written and oral communication. Culture courses under the rubric "Mapping German Culture" are taught in English and consider major cultural and literary topics. For students who have some proficiency in German, the Mapping German Culture courses are accompanied by sections that conduct discussions and study sources in German. Upper-level literary courses and special topics seminars both polish linguistic skills and offer intensive study at a high level.

The Debate Over A "defining German Culture" The Christian Democrats March To The In the CDU s new immigration paper, “defining German culture” is described The demand for a “defining German culture” inevitably brings association with http://www.wsws.org/articles/2000/nov2000/cult-n25_prn.shtml

World Socialist Web Site www.wsws.org WSWS Europe Germany The debate over a "defining German culture": the Christian Democrats march to the right By Peter Schwarz 25 November 2000 Back to screen version Rheinischen Post published its interview with Merz, who is chairman of the Christian Democratic Union-Christian Social Union (CDU-CSU) faction in the German parliament, the theme has dominated public discussion in Germany. concept of the nation. National culture is regarded as something naturally given, and not as something that has historically arisen and malleable. The concept presumes that there are inborn, genetically determined national characteristics, which have to be retained and defended irrespective of social changes. It seamlessly fits into the CDU's former campaign against dual nationality (for long-term foreign residents and those born in Germany to foreign parents), which rested on a notion of citizenship based on genetic origins and not on existing social relations. According to this conception, people in Russia whose German ancestors moved there five or ten generations ago are German citizens, while children born in Germany to Turkish immigrants who have lived in the country for three generations remain Turkish. In Germany on the other hand, from the very start the concept of the nation was always of an exclusive character and had a mystical retrograde aspect. The first influential national movement developed against the Napoleonic occupation and included forces who, as well as opposing Napoleon, opposed the progressive principles of the French Revolution. If the content of German nationalism was ambivalent at the beginning of the eighteenth century, it assumed definitively reactionary characteristics after the defeat of the 1848 revolution and the unification of Germany under Bismarck in 1871. Glorification of hyper-Germanness accompanied hatred of the French, laws against socialists and a substantial dose of anti-Semitism. It was no accident that later, many eminent authorities in the sphere of German intellectual and cultural life seamlessly subordinated themselves to the Nazi regime, while the really outstanding cultural figures ended up almost exclusively abroad.

Münster Application Click here for application information The Program and Kapito Sprachschule Students spend the first eight weeks of their program at Kapito, in a total immersion program. The basis of formal instruction at Kapito is a communicative methodology of language learning that stresses the student's immediate active engagement in language acquisition. Classes at Kapito are small, usually no more than ten students, and instructors have extensive experience in the strategies of encouraging rapid and intensive language acquisition. Recognizing that successful training in another language cannot take place in a vacuum, Kapito provides a series of cultural activities that are designed to provide each student with a fuller sense of German language, life and culture. Each group is taught by two tutors, and from the very first lesson, the teaching language is German. Kapito puts much importance on personal contact: the school management and the tutors always find time to talk with the participants, to give them information on practical matters or leisure activities and accompany them during the events of the cultural and leisure programs.

Cultural Difference in World Cities: A Comparative Perspective on Germany and the United States Gisela Welz, Ludwig-Uhland-Institut fuer empirische Kultuwissenschaft, Tuebingen Peter Tokofsky, Germanic Languages/Folklore, UCLA Course Description The folkloristic approach to expressive culture and to the aesthetics of everyday life combines with urban ethnography's special focus on face-to-face situations and local communities to analyze urban cultural transformations. The seminar will discuss folklore's and urban anthropology's contributions to this field of research, addressing a number of issues and research problems generated by the world city process, such as social inequality, cultural difference, cultural politics, and political interventions. Examples will contrast the situation of recent immigrants in New York City and Los Angeles in the 1980s and 1990s with that of so-called Auslander (foreigners) in German cities. Post-unification Berlin and the rapidly modernizing city of Frankfurt will serve as cases in point that exemplify conflicts and accommodations arising from the fact that, increasingly during the past decade, non-European immigrants and refugees are making these cities their new homes. These specifically German developments will be contextualized with a more general European perspective and supplemented by additional case studies.

Commencement Denk' ich an Deutschland in der Nacht, / Dann bin ich um den Schlaf gebracht, / Ich kann nicht mehr die Augen schließen, / Und meine heißen Tränen fließen. Heinrich Heine Search: Why I Study German In addition, I was amazed by the variety of German courses that were offered for upper division and how some these courses directly correlated with my legal studies major: in some of my German classes I would often read the original texts - such as Kant and Nietzsche - that was also assigned for my legal studies classes. Furthermore, the more classes I took in the German department the more I realized how the German department really offered a well-rounded liberal arts education with perspectives on art, history, politics, sociology, philosophy, psychology and more. Therefore, I never felt that I was receiving a limited viewpoint within the major, because I was learning about artists, composers, writers, politicians? that had not only left an impression on Germany, but on the entire world. My final decision to major in German was actualized my last year. I blissfully continued to take German classes when I discovered (my last year) that I was missing only a few classes in order to receive the major. Therefore, I buckled down and finished my legal studies major in the fall and took almost all German classes my last semester?that was the best semester ever.
