FR 1053 - GLOBAL FRENCH

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Global French is a designated W-Course and fulfills a writing-intensive course requirement. This course frames questions about French and francophone literature, culture and film in a global context to ask: how can one be French and global? We will investigate spaces, objects, environments, and texts that allow us to think about connections between France and the world in different transcultural, literary, and historical contexts. Course materials cover the Middles Ages to the contemporary period and include literary texts, historical documents, film, visual culture, critical readings, and online sources. As a Writing-Intensive course, this seminar gives you the opportunity to define and explore questions about global French, engage in original research, and test and revise your ideas through different kinds of writing activities. You will produce approximately 25 pages of written French, including informal writing, short essays, and a longer research project. TAUGHT IN FRENCH Prerequisite(s): at least nine credits above FR 0104 or permission of instructor; completion of FR 0027 (French Atlantic) is recommended but not required.
