This introduction is obligatory for all beginners. Successful attendance is the basis for the admission to other modules. However, this course is also open to students who want to revise elementary knowledge for their (intermediate or final) exams. The introduction covers basic concepts and methods necessary for academic reading, analysis and research. Thus, it creates an awareness of periods in literary history, their respective (formal and thematic) characteristics, and introduces a selection of their most renowened representatives. In addition, we will take a look at definitions of genre, and consider various approaches to the analysis of a literary text. These will be tested against a Shakespearean play, a contemporary British novel, and a number of poems, using the _Norton Anthology of English Literature_ in the latter case. Another important aspect in this course will be to learn how to use academic research material (bibliographies, reference books, electronic media). Obligatory elements of the course include a library tour, a bibliographical assignment, and a written final exam.
