Content
|
The seminar is devoted to the development of national and other identities in literature. The whole term is built on the Scottish environment, which serves as a case study. This national literature offers a number of themes that are valid for other national literatures (including Czech). It is interesting to analyse the development of Scottish literary expression as that of minority literature and to search for the expression of national values concerning the language, culture and national awareness. Course participants gain or apply information related to the development of cultural awareness. The seminar develops the students´ skills in textual analysis and in researching primary and secondary sources in English.
