Course objectives
The seminars will be centred around reading and interpreting either theoretical or artistic texts (not only from Czech literature). On the main axis of story - text - narrative we will observe (with impact on the aesthetic function) how narrative technique can semantically model a text.
Syllabus
  • The themes of the seminars will be specified according to the interests of students, other ideas are welcomed. Main thematic fields: 1. Narrative typologies or Terms will not save us 2. Subjects literary text: narrator and character; the narrator between author and reader or We are human too; 3. Thematising the medium vs. picturing a scene; metafictionality as a gnoseological trap; 4. Child consciousness in the role of focalisation; 5. Story as a function of thinking; narrative strategies in experimental writing; narrative aspects of using set (semiotic) systems in aestehtic literary texts or Another brick in the wall.
