Poslední úprava: prof. PhDr. Jan Čermák, CSc. (18.12.2018)

The seminar takes place in room 104 in the main building of the Faculty of Arts, náměstí Jana Palacha 2.
It is the sixth of six-semester long guest lecture series in medieval studies focused on medieval conceptual and social conflicts and contrasts. The fall semester of 2018/2019 is focused on the concept of metaphor.

The course is aimed at PhD students and advanced MA students but anyone interested in, or working on, any aspect of medieval studies is most cordially welcome. Materials accompanying the lectures are available from the Moodle (https://dl1.cuni.cz/course/view.php?id=643).

Five credits for the course, conducted in English, are worth regular attendance (three absences maximum) and a successful completion of a final test.

The test will take the form of a mini-essay of 600 words minimum you will be required to write in English on a topic of your own choice from a set of 10 test topics based on the lectures. The test will take 120 mins.

The dates for taking the test are as follows: 7 January (10.50, Room 104/P); 28 January (10.50, Room 104/P); 11 February (10.50, Room 104/P).
