Comparative Literature BA (A), Literature and Crisis: Intercultural Challenges in a Global Context

Education facts

Code: LI077G

The course is a non-progression course. The course can be included in a degree, but it does not give access to further courses in progression level in the subject comparative literature. In this course we highlight crisis as a theme in literature from different micro- and macro-perspectives and analyse language-related, as well as aesthetic, philosophical, social and ethical aspects of crisis-related literature. The purpose is to discuss how crises are represented in literature, but we will also discuss crises as intercultural challenges in a global context and position different scientific discourses on crises in relation to each other, so as to understand the crisis theme as, equally, process, challenge and possibility.
