Subject: Stud: Masterstudiengang "Modern Languages, Literatures & Culture" (King's College London)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
King's College London, London
Studienbeginn: 16.09.2019
The Department of German at King’s College London is delighted to announce the launch of a new MA in Modern Languages, Literatures & Culture from September 2019. The German Department hosts one of the largest and most vibrant postgraduate communities in German Studies in the UK with 22 current PhD students. We plan to complement our thriving postgraduate research culture with a one-year taught MA programme that combines the research strengths and subject specialisms of our three Modern Languages departments: French; German; and Spanish, Portuguese & Latin American Studies.
In addition to the core dissertation and compulsory module on research methodologies and critical theory, students may choose from options on subjects from the Middle Ages to the present day. The course offers students the flexibility to focus on one or more of the cultures of the French, German, Portuguese and Spanish-speaking worlds. Situated at the heart of London, King's forms the ideal base from which to access UK institutes and centres that promote French, German, Hispanic and Lusophone cultures.
The compulsory 20-credit module on ‘Research Methodology: Reading Theory / Reading Practice’ is designed as a Master’s-level introduction to key strands of literary and critical theory. It is structured around four broad topics central to the study of Modern Languages and Cultures: (1) translating world cultures; (2) theories of history; (3) power and geopolitics; and (4) material textualities. The module is taught through seminar-based discussions of key theoretical texts on literary and cultural creation and interpretation.
The German Department will offer three co-taught modules shaped by its interdisciplinary and cross-period research strengths. These 20-credit modules are anchored in the German context and further discuss comparative international case studies; they will all be taught in bilingual mode and are accessible to those without knowledge of German. Efforts will be made to enable students to access London archive and museum resources as part of the curriculum:
I) German in the World
This module explores recent shifts away from an understanding of German Studies as a discrete national philology, and towards conceptions of national cultures as shifting constellations of transnationally networked forms and practices. An opening unit, Archival Circulations, uses hands-on research in a London archive to explore the archive’s function as a site for the production (or suppression) of memories of German-language culture’s transnational entanglements. Unit 2, Language, Translation and Transmission, explores how understandings of German culture are forged through processes of linguistic and cultural translation, transmission and reinvention. Unit 3, Networks and Connectivities explores transnational networks, and imaginary as well as material cross-cultural encounters, as part of the generative fabric of German-language cultures from their very inception. The module concludes by revisiting questions of archive and memory, examining the significance of a reassertion of German residence in contemporary archives of migration.
II) Beyond the Human
German authors from Hartmann von Aue to the present have engaged repeatedly and extensively with what it means to be human. This module centres around different ways of exploring and interrogating the limits of human subjectivity through time. With a focus on human encounters and interactions with the natural world, animals, objects and the supernatural we ask how and why German authors from the Middle Ages to the present day define, challenge and deconstruct what it means to be human. How are models of humanity and humanism challenged by non-human perspectives and theories of the non-human? To what extent is selfhood perceived to be confined within the body? In what ways have writers and thinkers imagined what lies beyond human selfhood? How is an understanding of what it means to be human conditioned by historical or social context?
III) Documenting the Camp: Testimony, Memory, Legacy
This module examines theoretical and cultural engagements with camp spaces from within and beyond the modern German context. It sets out to conceptualize the structural basis of socio-political mechanisms of exclusion and to consider the political, aesthetic and ethical dimensions of cultural responses and their modes of engagement and resistance. The theoretical framework for the module will build on work from the German context by Carl Schmitt on states of exception (‘On Dictatorship’, 1921), as well as Hannah Arendt on the political, and include such further thinkers as Michel Foucault and Giorgio Agamben. Cultural engagements with camp spaces will be chosen from the domains of literature, film, graphic novel, museum and memorial, which consider concentration camps from the National Socialist period, as well as colonial camps in Namibia of the early twentieth century, and more contemporary refugee and transit camps from within and beyond the German context. Students will be supported to select appropriate methodological approaches through which interpret the case studies and to discuss a range of cultural engagements in comparative critical terms.

Subject: Stud: Master "European Studies" (Univ. Regensburg)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
University of Regensburg, Regensburg
Studienbeginn: 14.10.2019
Bewerbungsschluss: 15.06.2019
The two-year English-language master’s programme European Studies at Regensburg University provides a thorough understanding of Europe not only as an actor in an increasingly globalised world, but also as a transnational community. Students approach Europe from a multidisciplinary perspective through the areas of history, politics, law, economics, literature, and culture. The programme also teaches advanced research and methodological skills and students have the opportunity of studying abroad for a semester at one of Regensburg’s many Erasmus partner universities.
The programme's first intake of students will take place in October 2019, pending ministerial approval. Applicants are required to hold a first academic degree (usually a B.A. or equivalent or higher) in the humanities, the social sciences, economics, or law. Applicants need to possess an excellent command of the English language at level C1 or higher (or equivalent) according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). We accept all the usual certificates as proof of English proficiency (e.g. TOEFL, IELTS, Cambridge Certificate).
This M.A. is an English-taught programme. However, students without prior knowledge of the German language have to reach a level of A1+ (according to CEFR) in German until the end of their first year.
Despite its long history and medieval old town (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), Regensburg is a young city – every fifth inhabitant is a student. This is particularly obvious in the town centre: an abundance of bars, pubs, and restaurants make the city’s historical centre the place to be (when you’re not on campus). Countless attractions such as music festivals, concerts, theatres, and cinemas complement the recreational opportunities in this beautiful and bustling city.
