Editorial Board Review: This anthology of articles is an invaluable resource for instructors teaching
German cultural studies. The authors reflect upon the place of cultural studies
within the field of German Studies and attempt to answer such questions
as "What was 'German' in the past?" and "What is 'German' now?" Chapters
23-27 provide advice for instructors on how to teach cultural studies.
Chapter 28 contains 11 short handouts which the instructor may photocopy
and pass out to students to assist them in reading various "texts" such as
poems, novels, paintings, films, architecture, statistics, and western music.
