ZwischenSprachen Zum Potenzial exophonischer Literatur für eine Didaktik der Literarizität im universitären DaF-Unterricht in Südafrika

[摘要] ENGLISH ABSTRACT : Between Languages – Exploring the potential of exophonic literature for the implementation of didactics of literariness in German foreign language teaching at tertiary level in South AfricaThis thesis aims to make a contribution to the field of literature study in foreign language teaching inSouth Africa. It investigates the practical implications of Claire Kramsch's theory of 'symboliccompetence of the multilingual subject, Michael Dobstadt's and Renate Riedner's theory of a'Didaktik der Literarizität as well as theories of multilingualism and exophony. Specifically this thesislooks at how these approaches can be combined and then implemented at advanced levels in foreignlanguage teaching (B1 and B2), namely German modules at Stellenbosch and other South Africanuniversities where a multilingual background of language learners is the norm. The thesis thus exploreshow exophonic literature as an educational tool can help students to improve their language learningand shows the range of possibilities that exophonic literature offers in the field of foreign languagelearning. On the basis of the theories and a survey amongst the students studying German in their thirdyear in Stellenbosch, two sets of lesson plans are developed for university students with B1/B2 level inStellenbosch. The literature used was Maja Haderlap's poem 'Als mir die Sprache abhanden kam aswell as Yoko Tawada's Essay 'Bioskoop der Nacht. These lesson plans shall serve as examples onhow Dobstadt/Riedner's and Kramsch's theories can be implemented in practise using exophonicliterature in a multilingual environment.
