Texts and contexts in literary studies - opis przedmiotu

Cel przedmiotu

After the completion of the course the student will be aware of the status of  literary/cinematic works as products of culture, whose interpretation is dependent on a variety of contexts in which they may be placed. The student will be able to analyze and interpret cultural products (literary, cinematic), employing the contexts discussed in class: socio-historical, cultural, genre/convention, selected literary theories, other texts of culture  (intertextuality, intermediality).
