Course
Term
Autumn 2023

The course is focused on the media representation of female heroines in different media content. Its attendees will learn about different media representations of females in media, ranging from advertisements, TV series, movies, etc. We will discuss the importance of media representation in the context of typical “representation tropes” associated with female heroines. After the theoretical background is discussed in each seminar, examples from movies, TV series, news, and advertisement will be presented and analyzed in group discussions. An active approach from students is expected and required for the successful completion of the course. 

Assessment methods and criteria:

  • compulsory attendance of seminars (two absences allowed)
  • activity during the semester (compulsory reading and watching!) Check interactive content every week!
  • a project during the semester = 1 presentation at the end of the semester (each student) 
  • oral examination in groups
