The lecture first describes general possibilities and patterns of literary-theoretical approaches to literary texts and situates them within the broader concepts of scientific theory. This is followed by a brief overview of the 'theory debate' of the 1980s and 1990s in German studies and the subsequent discussion about a cultural studies expansion of literary studies.
