What is popular culture? How do “high” and “low” cultures inform each other? In what way can contemporary popular culture alter and challenge the established canon and provide new means of reflections on established philosophical paradigms? This seminar explores canonical works of (mostly German) literature and philosophy in regard to works from popular culture (mostly American film and pop music).
