Program in Critical & Cultural Theory Department of Anglophone Literatures and Cultures Time: Tue 12:30-14:00 Place: Room 34 COURSE DESCRIPTION The two-semester course aims to survey the 20th-century experimental fiction written outside the English language, but with important ties to, and overlaps with, the Anglo-American fiction of the times. Part One of the course will focus on the first half of the century. Just as the early 20th-century Anglophone literature is difficult to imagine without such experimenters as Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, and Samuel Beckett, then these figures in turn are hardly conceivable without their exposure figures like Franz Kafka, the French surrealists, and Jorge Luis Borges.<br> The course will start by surveying arguably the most vital literary tradition of the French avant-garde, and within a broadly comparative framework then go on to cover, then go on to cover the experimental developments in the German, Spanish & Portuguese, Italian and Latin American literary traditions.<br> MOODLE LINK TO SYLLABUS & ALL READINGS:<br> https://dl1.cuni.cz/course/view.php?id=7879 |
