Course objectives
Visiting lecturer prof. dr. Yves T’Sjoen (Ghent University, Belgium) presents an overall picture of the postwar poetry in the Low Countries. His focus is on Flemish poetry, but a number of important literary developments in the Netherlands are discussed as well. The poetry of the Low Countries is put in an international perspective and repeated references are made to the political context and to other art forms (painting, theatre, film and music among others). Students acquire knowledge of developments in the postwar poetry of the Low Countries and are able to see them from an international perspective. Moreover they get acquainted with the postwar political and cultural-historical context.
Syllabus
