- Cíle předmětu
- On various aesthetic, social, and intellectual levels, Decadence challenged many of the assumptions of the dominant society during the Victorian and Edwardian periods, and this course will accentuate those dynamics through close readings of a number of representative English texts, namely The Renaissance by Walter Pater; the poetry of Algernon Charles Swinburne and of Lord Alfred Douglas; “The Portrait of Mr. W. H.” and “Pen, Pencil and Poison” by Oscar Wilde; The Turn of the Screw and “The Pupil” by Henry James; a serialized novel from the pornographic magazine The Pearl; the “gentleman’s diary” My Secret Life by Walter; The Garden God by Forrest Reid; and a number of other works on similar themes. It will also consider the artworks of Simeon Solomon and Aubrey Beardsley.
At the end of the course, students will be able to critically evaluate the issues, textual and cultural, surrounding English Decadence, discuss the writing of others with sensitivity and appreciation, and have a greater understanding of the contexts of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. - Osnova

- Metody hodnocení
- Attendance will follow whatever is officially established by Department policy. Class participation is a must. This course will be comprised of 45-minute lectures followed by 45-minute discussions, and all materials covered are provided in the ELF system as Adobe Acrobat PDF files. An academic essay will serve as the only graded assignment. This essay (2,000 words, typed, double-spaced) must include a close reading of one or more passages from one of the texts covered during this course; however, the passage (or passages) given a close reading must be different from the passages covered during the lessons (another reason why attendance is necessary).
