French Literature: Genre Theory and Aesthetics

Advanced knowledge in the subject is acquired through a general survey of genre theory and aesthetic aspects of literature. Particular emphasis is placed on how in French literature one or more genres develop in literary currents and / or over time (eg, "the realistic novel"). Genre perspective and aesthetic considerations are the starting points in the analyses of a selection of literary texts.

Further course information will appear soon on this page. Until then, information can be found on the department website.
