II semestre (Lingue e letterature straniere) dal Feb 13, 2023 al May 27, 2023.
Learning objectives
By the end of the course students:
– will be familiar with essential concepts of lexicology and morphology;
– will be familiar with the pragmatic and stylistic resources that feature in specialised texts relating to tourism, economics and advertising;
– will have learnt textual conventions and strategies and will be able to apply them to the specified fields.
Expected Spanish proficiency level is C1 according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Language.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Spanish proficiency level C1 (or higher) is a prerequisite for sitting the final exam; it corresponds to 3 out of 9 CFU awarded by this course.
Proficiency level validation is based on certificates issued by CLA (Centro Linguistico di Ateneo) or by Instituto Cervantes (the certificate must be validated by CLA and published in the appropriate list) and it is a requirement for the exam with the lecturer for Lengua española 3.
As detailed in "Vademecum normativo per gli studenti dell'Area di Lingue e Letterature Straniere", C1 certificate is valid for five years.
Before sitting the final exam students must have passed and registered the following exams (as stated in "Vademecum normativo per gli studenti dell'Area di Lingue e Letterature Straniere"): Lengua española 2 and Literatura española 2/Lengua, literaturas y culturas hispanoamericanas.
IMPORTANT NOTICES: Erasmus students are REQUESTED to get in touch with the lecturer at the beginning of the course for further information and for the integration of 3CFU (if applicable).
Program
The course will offer an introduction to the fundamental concepts of morphology, lexicology and terminology with the aim of applying them to the analysis of commercial and touristic texts.
Thus it will be possible to assess the current neological and lexical innovation trends in Spanish. Furthermore, the course will take into account different aspects of lexical creativity within economic and touristic texts.
Bibliography
Didactic methods
Lectures will be supported by Powerpoint presentations and by multimedia material; there will also be workshop-style classes with practical activities focusing on the analysis of texts in the specified domains and corpora.
Learning assessment procedures
The test will have a duration of 75 minutes and will be entirely in Spanish. It will include short answer questions, and open questions. Some questions will require metalinguistic competence and the ability to identify phenomena covered during the course and to provide clear examples.
Evaluation criteria
The exam will be a written test that will ascertain the depth of knowledge acquired on the topics on the syllabus, as well as the correct use of language, the terminological precision, and the ability to connect the information as a network of knowledge.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
The final mark will be expressed in a scale of 30 and will be the arithmetic mean between the grade obtained in the written test and the grade from the Spanish proficiency exam (converted in a scale of 30 in accordance with the indications detailed in “Vademecum normativo per gli studenti dell'Area di Lingue e Letterature Straniere").
