En savoir plus sur le livre
Students and teachers of English at German universities now have a resource tailored for British and American Landeskunde and Cultural Studies courses, beneficial for general study and exam preparation in BA and MA programs. This book outlines American and British geography and history in a question-and-answer format, covering traditional topics such as education, media, minorities, immigration, political life, and religion, along with special subjects from abortion to women’s rights and contentious issues like capital punishment and gun control. It addresses aspects overlooked by previous English-language resources for German students, offering comparisons with older disciplines like anthropology and sociology, as well as insights into newer fields such as area, gender, and media studies. The first part presents topics in Anglo-American Area Studies, while the second part explores concepts of identity, power, class, gender, new media, and the diverse meanings of culture. Now in its second edition, the book features clearly structured chapters with varied exercises, photos, and illustrations, moving away from dry summaries to provide German students with a firsthand experience of the engaging tone and humor found in academic discourse in Britain and the US.
