Abstract
This paper gives a historical overview of how the idea of Teaching German literature has developed before pointing out the demands that are being placed on teachers today. The concept of Teaching German literature has changed drastically over the last 200 years: Being once considered trivial and not worthy of teaching at school, German literature is seen as one of the key elements of schooling today. It first became the monopole of ethical-aesthetical education, before the idea of teaching morals and ethics through German literature took over. Nowadays, in the context of literature selection the question of reasonableness of literature is being asked: How much can a young reader cope with? In this context, the thought that literature can play a crucial role in the development of personality becomes essential and gives implications for the way it should be taught at school. Finally, it is explained why PISA marks a turningpoint in the concept of teaching literature and an outlook to possible future developments is being given.
