Expanded Course Description
| This course follows the development of French prose, in various forms and genres, from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries. Short stories, tales, letters, and novels are the primary focus of the reading. Moving chronologically, the course takes love as its principal theme and explores how the representation of this universal topic can reflect different spiritual, political, philosophical, and poetic notions, not just of a particular historical period or literary movement, but also of an individual author. Readings can include stories of cruelty or wit from Marguerite de Navarre¿s Heptaméron, intrigue from the court of Louis XIV in the letters of Madame de Sévigné, excerpts from the libertine epistolary novel Les liaisons dangereuses, and short stories by Guy de Maupassant and Albert Camus.
FR333 serves as a bridge between the literature surveys (317-8-9) and 400-level classes. It helps students further develop their language skills and emphasizes written production, especially literary analysis. Various writing assignments enable students to move more smoothly into advanced undergraduate literature courses. |
