About this Class

Through multimedia documents and workshops that stimulate written and oral comprehension and production, this process will help you (re)discover the main conceptual and lexical tools needed to describe, analyze and, ultimately, impress when discussing literature (and in French, no less!) More seriously (or maybe not), the class is designed as a conversation where you will enjoy expressing yourself and sharing views on the topics at hand in a relaxed atmosphere.

This class is designed as a 10-week journey: you can choose to attend just Part I (5 weeks, covering 2 works), just Part II (also 5 weeks, covering 2 works), or the full 10-week course (4 works total) at a discounted rate!

Objectifs du cours :

· Comprendre les contextes socio-culturels et historiques des œuvres.
· Identifier et explorer les thèmes et idées centrales de chaque œuvre.
· Analyser le style et l’art de la composition de chaque auteur / autrice.
· Connaître et utiliser le lexique de l’analyse littéraire.
· Travailler l’argumentation orale et écrite à travers des débats, compte-rendus et ateliers de création littéraire.
