Students will choose one of three courses on offer but each has a limited number of places available. These cover the middle ages, the early modern period, and post-war literature and drama. While the focus is on the critical analysis of individual works, students will also be expected to have good working knowledge of the wider historical and cultural backgrounds to these works and of their literary conventions, genres and codes. Students will be encouraged to practice writing well-structured essays on given themes and topics.
S6 UE2 Littérature GB
William Shakespeare, The Tempest, ed. Stephen Orgel (Oxford World's Classics, 2008) (recommended edition)
This course also aims to strengthen your knowledge of early modern literature, and of texts usually seen as central to the shift towards modernity.
A booklet including a selection of essential texts (including the poems) will be provided, and made available by January at Imprimerie de la DALI (Studium)
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Edition: Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, A New Verse Translation, Simon Armitage (Norton, 2008).
Edition: Penguin, Modern Classics, 2000. (Introduction by Terence Brown)
This course focuses on James Joyce’s celebrated book of modernist short stories Dubliners, written in 1904 but not published until 1914. While Joyce considered Ulysses (1922) and Finnegans Wake (1939) to be his sole important works, his short stories constituted a milestone in the history of short prose fiction and a remarkable and precocious achievement in their own right.
Our first classes will deal with the Irish literary context, and the wider modernist background to “early” Joyce before looking at the conception, reception, and general structure of Dubliners. Particular attention will be paid to terms such as “epiphany”, “scrupulous meanness”, “paralysis”, thes e being essential to understanding Joyce’s realist aesthetic.
Students are expected to have read beforehand the first three stories of the volume. A bibliography will be put on moodle later in the year.
