About the Major
Through the study of Germanic literature, language, and linguistics, German majors receive a humane liberal education as well as an understanding of the cultures of the German-speaking countries. The literary texts are read in both English and their original language and most classes are taught in German. Students read major authors such as Luther, Lessing, Herder, Goethe, Schiller, Heine, Mann, Hesse, Grass, Wolf and Boell, and cultivate a broad philosophical, historical and critical appreciation for language, culture and literature as they reflect on historical periods. The department also offers courses in Dutch, Afrikaans, and Old Norse languages, literature, and culture.
