- Methodology for the analysis of literary texts The aim of the course is to enable students at the beginning of their Master's studies to deepen their knowledge of literary studies and to acquire greater proficiency in the analysis of literary texts, while gaining a more thorough knowledge of modern literary trends. The course is intended to focus on the internal analysis of texts, including the specificities of each text type (descriptive, narrative, argumentative, dialogue, etc.) and genre, but also on the interrelations between text and "extra-textual" (text and reality, text and other texts). Building on similar undergraduate courses, in addition to theoretical knowledge, practical analysis will be given increased emphasis in the lessons. Throughout the semester, students will gain proficiency in performance analysis through a theatre performance observation questionnaire using concrete examples. There is the possibility to attend guest lecturer courses or academic conferences organised by the Department
