Cíle předmětu
This course engages the broad cultural dynamics of Britain and its former colonies, with particular attention paid to the developing role of institutions and their impact on mechanisms of power, social conditions, and cultural production. Emphasis is placed on the changing discourses of British life – social, medical, ethical, religious, legal, political, monetary, scholarly, and familial – complex discourses which arose from the first Roman interchanges with the Celts, matured throughout the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, were advanced by the establishment of Britain's almost-global dominance during the reign of Victoria, were impacted by the two World Wars, and continue to develop into the Britain we see today. Unlike 'Introduction to British Studies I', this course will concentrate primarily on the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The required texts will be introduced in the first lecture of the semester and are available from the library in e-prezencka form.
At the end of the course, students will be able to discuss cultural theories with greater sensitivity and appreciation, and will have an understanding of the contexts from which those theories arose as well as situations in which they can be aptly applied in dealing with Britain.
Výstupy z učení
Having completed the course students will have shown that they have a much greater awareness of the significant details of nineteenth and twentieth century British history, particularly in terms of political and cultural elements.
