a certain course I have taught in the past.
Since receiving my Ph.D. in German Literature from the University of California, Santa Barbara, I have been doing research on Contemporary German Literature and teaching German language, literature and culture and courses in World Literature in Translation at NC State University.
Among the courses I especially enjoy creating and teaching are first and second year German language courses, Twentieth Century German Literature, German Culture and Civilization, New German Cinema, Business German, and World Literature in Translation Courses on Masterpieces of the Western World II, and on Kafka.
My
publications have been in contemporary German literature, especially on Christa
Wolf (Autorschaft und Subjektgenese: Christa Wolfs Kein Ort. Nirgends.
Vienna: Passagen, 1992) and the works of German writer/Czech national Libuše
Moníková (1945-1998), with articles on historiographic metafiction,
filmic writing, and intermediality. My
current research project is on intermediality in the works of Libuše
Moníková.
