L-FIL-LET/14 - CRITICAL COMPARATIVE LITERATURE
Period
CuCi IIA dal Feb 15, 2021 al Apr 1, 2021.
Learning outcomes
Teaching comparative literature aims at transmitting to the students crucial conceptual intruments and modes of thoughts concerning some important literary themes current in the Western World. By the end of the course the student will master notions and critical methodologies used by the professor in class.
Program
In the class of Comparative Literature (36 hours, 6 CFU) students will have the opportunity to reflect extensively on typical periods, themes, and genres of World Literature (especially Western Literature), with a particular focus on the new languages that are recently developing. Basic notions of narratology and stylistics will be introduced for this purpose. At the end of the lessons, students will be able to orient themselves in the vast horizon of Western Literature.
In the Comparative literature class of the 2020/21 Academic Year both the themes of the scar and the tattoo will be analyzed. The students will read novels and essays about the subjects, which will be examined from a diachronic perspective. They will also study the meaning of scars and tattoos in Western culture and analyze the ways in which they became the real protagonists of fascinating novels, short stories, and films.
