MetodologiaToggle Navigation

The lectures will provide the students with a general survey of 19th and 20th century English literature, exploring its main currents, genres, authors, and texts. These lectures will offer a basic introduction to the historical and cultural background of the different texts to be analyzed during the term, as well as information of the lives and careers of the writers under study. Seminars and practical lectures will be used to discuss the texts included in the compulsory reading list. Students are expected to play an active role during these lectures, discussing the main themes, characteristics, and formal features of the different texts. Students will have to convey their individual/group interpretations of these texts taking into account different critical stances.



Group work: Group work is meant to foster the students’ critical outlook, offering them an opportunity to develop a series of critical approaches to the different literary texts included in the syllabus. They are encouraged to develop a comparative approach, aiming toward an understanding of the main features of different authors by identifying central themes and discerning their relevance in particular literary texts and contexts. Students are encouraged to work in groups (with 4-5 students per group), and present their ideas in a compendium of essays (each student should contribute roughly 500 words) that are all related to the topic they have chosen. The secretary of each group will hand in the list of students and the chosen topic at the end of the second week of the course. Group works must discuss different authors and works and situate them firmly in a social, historical and literary context, and also reflect the students’ own ideas about the works and authors they havechosen to study, using MLA style (see reference listed under the heading “Websites”) when quoting both primary and secondary sources.



Tutorials will help students assess the progress of their assignments, their reviews and their group work. Office hours will be particularly useful for individual/group guidance, a deeper understanding of course material, and the development of critical inquiry through active questioning.

The type of assessment is continuous. Students will be assessed according to their performance in the following testing tasks:

Students will have to convey their individual/group interpretations of these texts taking into account different critical stances, based on questions provided by the lecturer, and/or by formulating their own questions.



b) Group work; 25%. Group work is meant to foster the students’ critical outlook, offering them an opportunity to develop a series of critical approaches to the different literary texts included in the syllabus. They are encouraged to develop a comparative approach, aiming toward an understanding of the main features of different authors by identifying central themes and discerning their relevance in particular literary texts and contexts. Students are encouraged to work in groups (with 4-5 students per group), and present their ideas in a compendium of essays (each student should contribute roughly 500 words) that are all related to the topic they have chosen. The secretary of each group will hand in the list of students and the chosen topic at the end of the second week of the course. Group works must discuss different authors and works and situate them firmly in a social, historical and literary context, and also reflect the students’ own ideas about the works and authors they havechosen to study, using MLA style (see reference listed under the heading “Websites”) when quoting both primary and secondary sources.



Exam:



a) 19th century: 40%. Mid-term written test.

b) 20th century: 20%. End of term written test.

a) identification and synthesized explanation of the specific themes, topics and literary styles in each text, as seen in class: 40%

b) contextualization of the works under analysis: relevant information concerning the socio-historicalk context and the specifically literary context, using sources previously studied in class to support statements: 40%

Withdrawal from Continuous Assessment: All students have the right to be evaluated according to the final evaluation procedure independently of whether or not they have participated in the continuous or mixed assessment module. In order to do so, they must write the instructor responsible for the course expressing their desire to withdraw from the continuous assessment. For quadmestral courses students can do so within the first 9 weeks of the course, according to the academic calendar of their centre.

Withdrawal from an exam call: Withdrawal from a call will be assessed as “no grade reported” [no presentado/a].

1. In the case of continuous assessment, all students can withdraw from a call until at least one month before the date of the end of the teaching schedule of the corresponding course. This withdrawal must be submitted in writing to the instructor responsible for the course.

2. In the case of final assessment, not sitting the exam on the official date of the exam qualifies as an automatic withdrawal from the corresponding call.



In the case of online classes, the percentages of assessment will remain, but the written tests in the classroom will be replaced by written assignments covering the same topics, to be submitted by email on the corresponding day of the test.
