Germanic Languages and Literatures Department
(Redirected from Germanic Languages and Literatures)
Willst du deutsch lernen? The Germanic Languages and Literatures Department is among the best in the country. Don't look here for Wirtschafts- (business) German, though; the department is heavily oriented toward literary criticism and philosophy.
Yiddish, Dutch, Swedish, and, oddly, Finnish (there was nowhere else to put it) are also taught under the aegis of the department.
Officially housed in Hamilton Hall, it holds many classes and events in Deutsches Haus.
Professors
- Andreas Huyssen, head of the department and intellectual heavyweight
- Michael Eskin, the best professor ever
