Poetics lecture

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cover of the poetry lectures by Patrick Roth

Lectures on poetry have been set up at various universities. They offer writers the opportunity to present their poetological views as part of a series of lectures . As a rule, a well-known author deals with questions about poetic practice and its conditions for a semester under a title of his own choosing. Usually the lectures are published afterwards. The Frankfurt Poetics Lectures , which have existed since the winter semester 1959/60 (and are also financed by publishers), are decisive for the German-speaking area . The first lecturer was Ingeborg Bachmann . But other universities, for example in Bamberg , Hildesheim and Innsbruck , offer lectures on poetics. The TU Dresden has held a Chamisso poetics lectureship for migrant literature since 2001 .
