Title: Studies in French Culture
Course Section Number: FRE-312-01
Department: French
Description: FACE TO FACE COURSE FRE312-01 This course will consider major literary and artistic movements in France spanning from Romanticism to World War I. Considering short stories, novels, and poems from key writers (such as Chateaubriand, Baudelaire, Zola, and Breton) who shaped modernism, we will trace the major motifs in literature and art that arose in response to revolution, empire, industrialization, urbanization, and war. Throughout, we will concentrate on French writers and poets who were also art critics and theorists; painters who called themselves poets; poets who were also painters; and musicians who translated the language of poetry into song. Along with readings, images in a variety of media (paintings, drawings, sculpture), as well as musical excerpts, will be integral to class discussion. Course taught in French.
