»Learn to Read!« Public Book Presentation on October 14, 2026

Description

Oliver Lubrich and Thomas Nehrlich from the University of Bern present their new book at the Robert Walser Center. This book offers an easily understandable introduction to the diversity of literary studies. Following an overview of literary history and genre poetics from antiquity to the present, chapters cover current theories and reading methods – from formal analyses to psychological, historical, and postcolonial approaches, as well as digital philology and empirical experiments in neuroaesthetics. "Reading Workshops" illustrate these methods with selected examples, and a glossary and bibliography complete the volume. The work is aimed at everyone who wants to learn to read literary and other texts with professional tools and enjoyment.
