Kursinnehåll
The objective of the course is for the students to develop different ways of reading and interpreting both older and contemporary texts in literary terms with regard to genres and media forms, and to deepen their understanding of how such texts can be used in English teaching.
The course provides an overview of how different literary perspectives can be used to interpret fiction. Key texts from the history of English literature are analysed using close reading methods and various critical literary theories. Earlier writing and genres are made accessible by being placed in their historical and aesthetic contexts, and by being transmediated into new media forms. The course highlights literary educational perspectives and the role and function of fiction in various aesthetic and medial forms of expression in English teaching. The course allows students to deepen their knowledge of and their ability to apply literary concepts and methods and develop skills for finding and to applying relevant research. Class activities include discussion of assigned readings combined with written, oral, and media-based presentations.
