The aim of this course is to give you the opportunity to apply the analytical tools to which you were introduced in Basis2.1 "Introduction to Literary Analysis" and to analyse and interpret literary texts in the genres of drama (I have chosen Shakespeare's farcical comedy The Taming of the Shrew) and verse (= narrative poetry; I have chosen Beowulf); and lyrical poetry (I have chosen sonnets).
As you see, our primary material will be mainly early modern (= Elizabethan/Jacobean literature). If you have an aversion to Shakespeare and/or poetry, please choose another AILT course.
The extract from Beowulf and the sonnets will be provided.
Please buy a paperback edition of The Taming of the Shrew, either from the New Cambridge series (editor: Ann Thompson), or from the Arden series (editor: Barbara Hodgdon), or from the Oxford series (editor: H. J. Oliver), or from the Penguin series (editor: M. J. Kidnie). -- Please note that school editions, Klett parallel German/English editions, or random internet versions are NOT acceptable for scholarly work.
