Subject Description

This subject continues to emphasise performance in the skills of speaking, listening, reading, and writing but on a more advanced level than Catalan 2 N-1/3 N-1. The rich literary tradition, valued in Catalan society, is discussed and studied. A selection of literature from the present century will be examined together with a brief look at the classical period. Students who complete this subject should be able to understand, speak and write Catalan at an initial intermediate level and have a mastery of key grammatical structures in Catalan.

Assessment

An essay of 1500 words, weekly written exercises, two 20-minute oral presentations, and a 1-hour final test.
