L-LIN/10 - ENGLISH LITERATURE

Period

I semestre (Lingue e letterature straniere) dal Sep 27, 2021 al Jan 8, 2022.

Learning outcomes

The course, taught in English, aims to provide students with an introduction to British literature from the Renaissance to late Romanticism, focusing on some of the most representative works. The course also aims to introduce the main critical approaches and the main features of literary genres. The overall goal of the course is to provide students with a good level of knowledge of literary history (in terms of historical context, texts, genres, movements and authors) and to develop their critical skills for analysis, argumentation and exposition in English, in relation to various typologies of literary texts in their historical-cultural context.

At the end of the course, students will be able to:
- analyse the set texts and place them in their respective historical-cultural contexts;
- describe the texts in a structured and informed way, taking into account literary conventions and applying an informed critical approach; - discuss literary topics in English in a clear and consistent way.

Program

Questions of Time and Place in Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale and The Tempest

The course will analyse two of Shakespeare’s late plays: The Winter’s Tale and The Tempest. We will tackle issues such as journeys in literature and drama, textual migrations and intertextuality, representations of ‘otherness’, gender and genre discourses, metatheatricality. Such themes will be dealt with by exploring the Jacobean historical and cultural context, but also through modern and contemporary adaptations of those two romances.

Further bibliographical instructions and clarifications about the exam will be provided at the beginning of the lectures.
Language: the course will be entirely in English.
Exclusively the editions of the primary texts indicated below will be admitted; please bring the texts in class.
