• Please note that you will have to work on two topics per week, which roughly equals 4 lesson, but of course that also depends on your individual pace- In any case: take your time and work reliably and thoroughly.
• The Links to each topic will be active every Wednesday morning the latest … and you do know the password (it will be changed once a month)
• When working from home please take this seriously as it will be essential for your Kolloquium: download the texts, work on all the tasks (including the Listening Comprehension exercises) and compare your findings with my model solutions.

• Please get the following edition of Pygmalion and read it through over the holidays: Pygmalion
• If you’re lucky, you might be able to watch the Hollywood version of the musical based on Pygmalion (called „My fair Lady„) on TV some time during the holidays
• For those who are into reeeeeaally old movies, there is a quite okay-ish 1938 version of the original drama on Youtube!
• Very important: the questions and answers in the individual lessons make up your „Hefteinträge“, please do not skip that!

Week 6: February 15 – 19

So we’ve finished reading and analysing Pygmalion … not quite:
Please watch the Hollywood version of Pygmalion during the Non-Carnival holidays and compare it to the original. The following points are of particular interest:

• Which scenes have been omitted and what scenes have been added – why?
• „My fair Lady“ is a musical – are the songs a nuisance?
• Do you prefer the drama or the musical?
• How three-dimensional are the characters in the musical?
• What do you think about the end of  the usical? Does it do justice to GBS‘ ideas?

Link: My Fair Lady
