Course objectives
The aim of the course is to analyse selected portuguese literary works which were adapted to cinema. After reading and projection of the movies, a discussion is expected in which the students practice in interpretation, argumentation and formulation of own ideas (as a methodological tool serves especially a comparison of the literary and cinematic narrative).
