- Course objectives
- The course enriches and systematises students´ knowledge and competences in the field of literary studies and research. The course is focused especially on problems of literary communication. Students will be able to explain the development of main trends, problems and conceptions of literary communication. Besides, they will develop their knowledge of approaches originating from Czech literary science. Conception of literature as a specific communicative interaction realising on axis of “the author” – “work of art” – “the reader” helps students to comprehend better what a work of art is, how it arises and how it impacts. Students will improve their critical thinking on literature and works of art, but also on constituent elements of literary communication. New knowledge helps students to interpret literary pieces more complexly and systematically.
