Learning objectives

The course will equally focus on deepening the interrelation existing between society, culture and literature taking into consideration literary texts by representative authors. Lessons will be held in French. The critical bibliography is also in foreign language. This will contribute to improve the students' language skills. At the end of the lessons, students will acquire socio-cultural, historical and literary knowledge specific to the chosen tourist and commercial orientation. They will also demonstrate that they can apply, in an autonomous way and in French, the acquired knowledge to the analysis of literary texts concerning the central subject of the course.

Screenings of performance recordings will accompany the presentation and analysis of the texts.
Second part: in Paris
Startig with a quick a topographical and historical and cultural overview of the capital of France (consultation of a guide and brief history of the city will be delegated to individual study), we will address the emergence, in the 19th century and particularly in Baudelaire's works in verse and prose, of a key figure in the literary myth of Paris, that of the flâneur.
Moreover, we will follow the movements, by metro or other means of public transport, of certain contemporary peri-urban and post-industrial strollers, such as Augé, Ernaux, Rolin, Vasset.
