Voraussetzungen / Organisatorisches: The lecture will introduce students to the range of theories that make up Cultural Studies. These will include basic theories of culture, representation, and power, dominant paradigms in Cultural Studies such as gender and sexuality, race, and class, and also more recent developments such as Postcolonial Studies, Ecocriticism, theories of popular culture and tvirtuality. Each lecture will revolve around a central text that it will summarise and explain. Each lecture will also contain an example (textual, visual, or audiovisual) that it will use for an application of the theory. The lectures will be offered as recordings on Moodle that can be accessed whenever the students wish to do so. The key texts will also be available there. Moreover, the lecture slides end with suggestions for further reading as well as self-test questions that prepare those who need to do it for the short take-home exam that will be emailed to students in the last week of teaching.
Anwesenheitspflicht: This is an asynchronous online lecture consisting of recorded Powerpoint presentations available on Moodle together with background reading.
