Course objectives
The course draws on the knowledge gained in the Introduction to the Study of Literature and lays methodological foundations for courses focusing on individual media (film adaptation, modern fine arts, comics, etc.) or on periods and movements which engage in intensive contact with various art forms (such as the Czech avant-garde). The codifying texts of intermediality theory (by Elleström, Rajewski, Wolf) provide the methodologic basis, supported by the findings of semiotics, narratology, visual and film studies.
The course aims to develop the following skills of the participants:
- interdisciplinary communication skill, i.e., the ability to formulate research problems in a way that makes them interesting to scholars from other disciplines;
- the ability to examine works of art and other media products not only in the context of the given art form, but also in the context of the whole culture, which is understood as “media discourse”.
Syllabus
  • The selection of the texts and works to be analyzed is (due to the short run of the course) subject to explicit manifestation of individual aspects of intermediality, thus, aspects of diachronic or culture representation can not be taken into consideration. Individual discussions will involve both analyses of fragments of works and complex interpretation.

Teaching methods
Classwork methods generally: semiotic analysis of a work of art and its cultural and historical contextualization, in particular: stylistic and poetologic analysis of literary text, narratological analysis of an audiovisual product (such as film or TV series), iconological analysis of a work of visual art, all involving cognitive aspects of reception; analytic approach will be employed during the class discussion, its necessary precondition being previous reception of the works of art intended to be analyzed ( i.e. reading texts, watching films etc.), in some cases, acquiring theoretical knowledge in advance will be necessary.
Assessment methods
active participation in class discussions, alternatively students´ own analysis either presented in the class discussion or written after the run of the course.
