| |||
| Holder(s) : | Marc Delrez, Christine Pagnoulle | ||
| |||
| |||
| Course contents : | The course bears on two literary movements and moments in the development of European literatures: romanticism and modernism. | ||
| |||
| Course objective : | (1) Provide students with a survey of the two movements (with cover the end of the 18th, most of the 19th and the first third of the 20th centuries) in such a way that they can refer to clear landmarks, (2) highlight connections between various art forms, and between historical context and literary / artistic productions, (3) promote reading habits (students have to read at least two books, see below), (4) point to the role of translators. | ||
| |||
| Prerequisites : | None. | ||
| |||
| Organization : | The course is taught in the second part of the year, on Fridays from 4 to 6. Salle Gothot (first floor, place du 20-Août). | ||
| |||
| Written notes : | Reference texts and a syllabus are on sale at Flash-copy (a copy shop rue Soeurs de Hasque). Reading some theory is obviously commendable, but in view of the amount of work students have to cope with we hardly insist. (Here are some titles just in case: Pierre Brunel, Claude Pichois et André-Michel Rousseau, Qu'est-ce que la Littérature Comparée ?, Armand Colin ; Eric Hobsbawm, L'ère des Révolutions 1789 - 1848, tr. Jean Chevalier, Complexe ; Peter Nicholls, Modernisms: A Literary Guide, Macmillan.) What is however compulsory is that they read one literary work for each of the two movements we look at. (Romanticism)
(Modernism)
