Fields of action in literature
Reading or liking, writing or swiping, Insta or theater, rhyme or reel - literature finds the most diverse ways, media and formats to reach people and have a public impact.
The module explores the analog or digital venues and channels in which literature takes place and through which it is communicated. If you want to know and experience how to make literature and what to do with literature, what it is about and how to deal with it, then this is the right place for you. You can experience and help shape literature as a creative practice and as a media production, get to know institutions such as the Schauspielhaus Graz or the Literaturhaus Graz and train skills that are essential for working in the cultural sector.
