::::: You must attend class having done the reading. If you miss more than 3 classes (or attend w/o having done the reading), you can’t get a credit. You must also submit a project based on the course by 20 January 2021. In this course, you’ve seen how Stevens can be taken in different directions, so your project should take him in yet another, and it can be an academic essay, an artwork, or a translation. The extent and character of the project must be agreed with the instructor by 20 December 2020. Last update: Znojemská Helena, Mgr., Ph.D. (16.12.2020)
