Subject Description

This subject involves a detailed analysis of a number of contemporary Italian texts, literary and non-literary, for the purpose of familiarising students with various registers and styles. Students will undertake exercises in translation (from and into Italian) with an emphasis on those features which are most likely to present challenges to speakers of English. There is also regular conversation practice on prescribed texts and exercises in written composition. The modern literature section provides an opportunity for students to practise their spoken Italian through the study of a modern literary text. By the end of the semester, students should have further developed their written and oral production skills and should have acquired the ability to competently discuss literary texts in Italian.

Assessment

Class tests and written work totalling 1000 words, two hours of written tests, a 15-minute class paper and a 15-minute oral test.

Prescribed Texts

Materials will be available from the Department.
