Course objectives
Courses CJBC520 (autumn 2008) and CJBC521 (spring 2009) are devoted to untraditional , predominantly comparative explication of selected topics on Czech studies. On the one hand seminars are devoted to chapters of history of esthetic reception, which follow the French view of Czech literature, on the other hand they are devoted to interpretations of works by Czech authors, with possible contribution of Romance studies. The aim of this course is:
- to learn a reception of selected Czech works in France
- to think about reasons why just these works held French readers interests
- to summarize approaches of French critique to particular interpretations
- to class particular works in the context of French literature and to find common topics or style characteristics
- to compare approaches of Czech and French critiques
