This class is geared toward students in all "Lehramt" degrees as well as "Magister" students who are planning to take a written or oral exam in American literature or in American culture.
Apart from reviewing the major periods in American literature as well as a variety of cultural key concepts and topics in American civilization (through lectures, readings, and discussions) we will focus on students' individual areas of specialization, discuss past exams and test-taking strategies, outline exam essays, and conduct practice tests. This will be a combination of "repetitorium" and exam practice.
