This is an established class for German literature enthusiasts, in which we read in German, but discuss in English, Novellen and other short stories by German, Austrian and Swiss writers, both classical and modern. Last year for the first time we extended our range to drama, 'performing' plays by Max Frisch and Bertolt Brecht, in addition to reading stories by Heinrich von Kleist, Georg Büchner and Robert Walser amongst others. I propose to continue with this format in the coming year, authors likely to feature including J W von Goethe, Franz Kafka, Stefan Zweig and Wolfgang Borchert. Applicants will of course need to be fluent German readers.
