L-LIN/10 - ENGLISH LITERATURE

Period

I semestre (Lingue e letterature straniere) dal Sep 30, 2019 al Jan 11, 2020.

Learning outcomes

The course, held in English, aims at introducing Students to the English Literature from the 16th century to the Restoration (1660), paying emphasis on some canonical literary texts. Besides, it will offer skills and abilities for the critical analysis of literary texts and their genres. The course objective is to provide a good knowledge of the literature of the period (historical context, texts, genres, literary movements and authors) and to develop in Students a capacity of analysis and argumentative abilities in relation to the various typologies of literary texts set in their literary, historical, and cultural context.

At the end of the course, Student will be able to
- analyse the examined literary texts setting them in their historical and cultural context;
- discuss them in an argumentative way, with due consideration to contemporary literary conventions, and by applying a critical, knowledgeable, and aware approach to the specificity of the literary texts;
- present the acquired competences in English, and in a coherent and clear way.

Program

"Magic Creatures Defying Authority "

The course "Magic Creatures Defying the Authority of Culture and Kings" will offer an overview of the history of the Elizabethan theatre and of Shakespeare’s works in the light of the Bard's gentle contestation of the Greek and Latin cultural models, which anticipates the Battle of the Books and tries to re-establish the minority vernacular and local cultural tradition which Spenser's 'Faerie Queene' had already promoted, in recovering the magic creatures present in Wales, Cornwall, Ireland, and Scotland. An in-depth reading of two instances of Shakespeare’s major deconstructions of canonical Authority – 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' and 'The Tempest' – will provide us the opportunity to foreground highly topical issues: the safeguarding of both human, and magic different species' rights, besides the Bard's 'avant la lettre' defence of the natural environment. The championing of a multicultural attitude, the recognition of minorities and their rights, and an attitude of togetherness-in-difference, is Shakespeare’s response to the dangers of authoritarian attitudes (as 'Othello' testifies).
