Course objectives
K.Dvořáková:The contents of this seminar are reading and interpretations of selected texts, originated between the 9th and 18th century. M. Škarpová:In the seminar chosen texts will be read from old Czech literature and it will be attempted to interpret them, while taking into account different cultural and social contexts and a diffent systém of aesthetic norms which form the basis of these texts. In the voyage across centuries we will mainly attempt at understanding common things and respecting differencies. Another impact should lay on the creation of students own, personal picture of Czech literature of the Middle Ages. The texts will also serve as a material upon the notion of natinal literature, of literature and memory, the importance of author in interpretation; written and oral literature; literary development; continuity and discontinuity,... A. Vítová:In seminars we will examine key works of Czech literature from the beginning to the 18th century. We will try to interpret them with regard to cultural and historical context of that period, in accordance with norms of period aesthetics.
Syllabus
  • K. Dvořáková: On the basis of selected texts we will observe the development of literature in our area - from the chronological, language, genre and functional point of view. M. Škarpová:The choice of texts will follow different criteria: chronology (from the 9th to the 18th century), language (literature in Czech, Latin, German), genre (legend, chronicle, love and spiritual poetry, drama, travel book, ..). A. Vítová: In each seminar we will read one text that respects both the chronological and the genre aspect. Concrete topics and texts will be specified in the first lesson of the seminar.
