| |||
| Holder(s) : | Marc Delrez | ||
| |||
| |||
| Course contents : | The course introduces students to some lesser known works in anglophone literature and should thus develop their awareness of its cultural diversity. In 2006-7 it bears on three Canadian novels inspired by the Great War. | ||
| |||
| Course objective : | Increase students' critical reading skills and develop sound habits of checking secondary literature. | ||
| |||
| Prerequisites : | Good knowledge of English. | ||
| |||
| Workshops : | Since many will be discovering diversity thanks to the ERASMUS exchange programme, the number of students ought to be sufficiently low for the course to take the form of a seminar with all students actively involved. | ||
| |||
| Organization : | The course is taught in the first term. The timetable still has to be decided on, but a suggested time would be Wednesday 10 to 12. | ||
| |||
| Written notes : | Students are invited to read the three following novels: Timothy Findley, The Wars, Faber and Faber, 1977. Jack Hodgins, Broken Grounds, Emblem Edition, 1999 Joseph Boyden, Three Days on the Road, Phoenix, 2006. | ||
| |||
| Assessment : | Students will have to write an essay at home. They will be assessed on their participation in class and on the marks they receive for this essay, but the final mark will be determined by a written examination followed by an oral feedback in January. | ||
