Teaching History through German Literature
Original language description
The text presents the results of the research in which university students – majoring in teaching German as the foreign language – expressed their viewpoint and experience about help of contemporary German literature to understand history. The research was carried out in the winter term 2016 on the basis of the following books: Günter Grass "Im Krebsgang" (2002); Uwe Timm "Am Beispiel meines Bruders" (2003); Uwe Tellkamp "Der Turm" (2008); Jenny Erpenbeck "Gehen, ging, gegangen" (2015). The students were offered an opportunity to deduce historical analyses through literary text of the second language literature which can provide an emotional experience and interest which leads to a) consequent (voluntary) search for further information about the period of history; b) willingness to produce creatively. The objective of my research study is firstly to give the skills to read literature as a resource for understanding historical change about how other people experience emotional issues; secondly to give the students an outline of the change in 20st century; thirdly to teach the other language skills (writing, listening and speaking) and language areas (i.e. pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar). .
