Learning outcomes
“Women, mostly seen by men, in 19th century English literature”
The course offers a choice of thematic readings on feminine typology in Nineteenth Century English Literature, spanning the whole century: from the femme fragile, angel of the fireplace, to the femme fatale, from the caring housewife and nursing mother to the saintly woman, from the homebound, prim householder to the adventurous traveller, from the good woman to the prostitute. Since the students who follow the course will major in travel literature, the required readings offer a wide-range of travel modalities, from the Romantic Tour of George Gordon, Lord Byron,, to modern tourism, as seen in the novellas of Maurice Hewlett and as it evolved at the end of the Victorian period.
Part of the course will be dedicated to a guided close-reading of The Winter’s Tale by William Shakespeare.
