Teaching methods
Students submit an assignment dealing with a particular author and the place of his life and work, or alternatively, dealing with one region and writers who are connected with that particular region.
Assessment methods
Students will present results of their work in written form (seminar paper) and in the form of mini-lectures. They will develop their ability of critical thinking as well as their individual style. Preparing a presentation is very time-consuming because it often requires a visit to the region.
Language of instruction
Czech
