Masters in German

This program offers students the opportunity to participate in a lively and engaged intellectual community composed of scholars working in an unusually wide range of interdisciplinary and theoretical approaches to German culture. In addition to the full breadth and depth of the German literary tradition, our faculty specializes in intellectual history from 1700 to the present, media studies, critical theory, aesthetic philosophy, twentieth-century art (including painting and photography), cinema studies, feminism and gender studies, psychoanalysis, and systems theory. These specializations of the full-time members of our faculty are further complemented by our close affiliations with other departments and interdisciplinary programs at Princeton such as Architecture, Art and Archaeology, the Center for the Study of Religion, Comparative Literature, European Cultural Studies, History of Science, Judaic Studies, Media + Modernity, and Medieval Studies.
