In this course we will discuss selected issues from Postcolonial/ Anglophone Studies. Students will present ongoing research projects (master theses) and may suggest topics and texts for discussion. Guest lectures on postcolonial literatures as well as on aspects of multiculturalism in Britain and the USA will also be part of this course. On Friday 9 June students will have the possibility to meet British Asian author and filmmaker Atima Srivastava (Mumbai/London) who is Postcolonial Writer in Residence 2012. Participants will also be able to join in on this semester's scheduled excursions to the Australian Aboriginal Art Museum in Utrecht/NL (Friday 29 June) and to the Hindu Temple in Hamm/Westf.
