Cíle předmětu
Course description: The seminar accompanies the lecture with additional readings and practical exercises. In the first half of the course we will have close readings of fundamental texts and case studies; in the second half, students will also interpret images and texts on their own ‒ either as class or in small discussion groups. After the course, students have to submit an interpretation as final paper, either individual or team work.
Objectives: Upon successful completion of the seminar students should have a deeper understanding of methods of interpretation in cultural sociology and related fields. Furthermore, students should have gathered practical experiences in interpreting images and texts, particularly media discourses, which prepares them for their own qualitative research, for example in their master thesis.
