The course will also make the students more competent text analysts, at the same time making them more familiar with all the stages in the research process in literary science.
Contents
As a group, we will be working together, writing an article on literary science, aiming at publishing the result. Emphasis will be on the methodological approach to writing, and on a joint process of writing where the students must work towards a common understanding.

The course consists of three phases:
In the first phase we analyse the selected literary text, in the second phase, we identify a problem to be discussed and outline the results of the analysis, and in the third phase, we write the article.
Form of teaching
Teaching consists of lectures where the students are required to participate actively.
