Littérature américaine TD
Licence Langues, littératures et civilisations étrangères et régionalesParcours Études anglophones

Description

This unit seeks to place literary works in their historical and cultural context, while exploring their aesthetic dimension. The tools, methods and practices of textual analysis will be further investigated through close reading and argumentative writing. The courses on offer (TDs) give students an opportunity to further study American literature through the critical analysis of individual works. Some of the TDs also introduce students to the study of the relationships between literary and cinematic forms.
 
 Students will develop their critical vocabulary and their close reading skills. Reading, writing and speaking skills are developed in relation to argumentative analysis.
 Students will choose one of the courses on offer, but each has a limited number of places available.
