The course further aims to provide knowledge and understanding of the methodological tools of literary theory and criticism in relation to specific fields of inquiry such as gender studies, critical race theory, cultural studies, postcolonial studies, decolonial studies, and migration studies. The course will enable students to master specific theoretical approaches to different cultural forms and to read literature with a special attention to how imaginaries are forged and counternarratives are articulated in different cultures and societies. Students will learn how to apply the acquired knowledge as the foundation to better understand contemporaneity and to connect different historical, social, and geopolitical contexts through their transnational literary and cultural productions.
