DESCRIPTION
Theory of Literature is a literary scientific and philological discipline whose object of study are general problems affecting literature, text and literary phenomena. In this context, the "Theory of Literature II" subject offers the student literary theoretical and literary critical concepts belonging to the great schools of the 20th century: historical and conceptual-systemic knowledge necessary to perform the analysis of literary language from its theory perspective, and the consequent capacity of relating theory and literary praxis; and the knowledge of similarities and differences between the different types of literary texts (or genres) and between theses and non-literary texts. The "Theory of Literature II" subject constitutes therefore one of the basic pillars of the Degree, since it manifests itself, on one hand, as an abstract, general and theoretical reflection on literary works from a historical and conceptual-systemic perspective, on the other hand, as the natural space for the literary-scientific analysis of literary manifestations from a evaluative-analytical (comparative and literary critical) perspective.
Course will consist of 60hrs of in class work and 90 hrs of independent work outside the classroom.
