Text on US Cultural Hegemony
1. What reasons for anti American feelings in Europe does the text give?
- American culture ousts European culture
- German or other European languages are being flooded with English terms and expressions
- Sense of national identity severely disturbed
- Europeans are afraid of loosing their cultural autonomy
- European culture replaced by American culture
- Vietnam-war
- Guantanamo Bay and Abu-Ghraib
- Americans ignore and don't know about European culture
- American worldview is centered on America
- Americans expect everyone to think and speak American
- Americanization as cultural imperialism
2. Why has Germany been especially quick at embracing American culture?
- America's help after WWII (→ Marshall Plan) ==> Germans felt grateful
- German culture discredited by Nazis, German from "Dichter und Denker" to "Richter und Henker"
- Germans looked for new cultural model → culture of the victoriuos, democratic and successful USA
- Germans were not allowed to have and learned to feel ashamed of patriotic feelings → easy to take over Western/US mass culture
- US culture meant luxury, affluence, freedom, individualism

From Poetry to Drama
Watch the difference between poetry and drama:
To turn the recital of a poem into "drama" one must ...
- put emotion in by varying the level of your voice
- vary your speed, speak in a shivering/slow/tired voice
- use gestures and facial expressions
- introduce music to support the mood e.g. slow instrumental
- several actors, representing the victims and the police. The victims are taken away one after the other. One person recites the poem.
- interaction between characters e.g. others passivly watch
- costumes e.g. for the soldiers, police
- images as background
- use a chorus, which speaks certain passages together
- don't do any of these to keep it minimalistic
- use lighting e.g. spot on one actor
.
Voice and the characters' interaction change everything!
... or can at least almost completely change the effect of the same line.
- Compare these examples!
- Practice this sentence with a partner (Take turns, play at least two different versions, the silent partner uses gesture/facial expressions)!
- I don't know what what she's up to. I just want to say "Good-bye".
- What is the general situation? (When, where does this happen?)
- What is the relation between the two characters (Who are they?)
- What do the characters want to express? (verbally and non-verbally)
Drama - a Definition
Drama is the specific mode of fiction represented in performance. The term comes from a Greek word meaning "action" (Classical Greek: δρᾶμα, drama), which is derived from "to do" (Classical Greek: δράω, drao). The enactment of drama in theatre, performed by actors on a stage before an audience, presupposes collaborative modes of production and a collective form of reception. The structure of dramatic texts is directly influenced by this collaborative production and collective reception. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drama
