Kommentar	Please follow the "comment" link above for more information on comments, course readings, course requirements and grading. How can we productively apply the ostensibly techie concept of hacking in relation to literature? In pursuit of this question we are going to look at fictional representations and non-fictional accounts of hacking and hackers. To provide additional background, we shall also retrace the short but chequered history of the term and monitor current news coverage of the topic. Previous considerations on the interface between hacking and art will provide another focal point. Ultimately, the aim of this course is twofold: On the one hand, we shall examine our primary texts in relation to the complex of hacking in the usual manner of a literary-minded cultural studies seminar on the other hand, we shall consider more speculatively which forms hacking might take in our own field of study, i.e. between literature, literary theory and criticism. What, in other words, could it mean to hack literature? N.B.: No special computer literacy is required for this exercise in literary and cultural studies. The course will be held in English.
