Learning outcomes

The main formative aim of the teaching within the degree course on Modern Languages and Literatures is to make the students acquirea high-level competence in critically approaching the classics of Spanish literature in depth. The results expected from their learning are the following:
-Knowledge and heightened understanding: in-depth knowledge of the Spanish literature of the scheduled period: historical context, texts, genres, movements, and authors dealt with in the taught module, especially with reference to the themes of cultural interchange and to the formal differentiations of the literary phenomena.
- “Applied” knowledge and heightened understanding: the students will acquire the necessary methodologies for putting them to use in working on literary texts within a historical and comparative perspective and in interpreting complex texts and implied meanings; they will have to be able to express themselves in fluent Spanish, arguing complex topics in a clear, ordered, and detailed way.

Program

The course will focus on a selection of literary representations, among the many the characterise Medieval Spanish literature: the 'cantares de gesta: El Poema de mio Cid".
The course will be taught in Spanish.
Students are required to check throughout the course materials and information uploaded on E-learning UNIVR
Students who are unable to attend are required to contact the teacher.
