Welcome to "African Literature in Portuguese" at Dalarna University

This course starts in week 36

The lessons in this course will be taught entirely online (net-based).

Throughout your studies, you will use this platform for information and material and Zoom will be used for our digital seminars.
When you take this course, you will study the following:
 
In-depth studies of African literary works in Portuguese. A number of representative contemporary literary works from Angola, Cape Verde,
Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique and Sao Tomé e Prinicipe are studied and
contextualized in the specific esthetic, cultural and political discussions that have engaged the African authors. Through the theoretical texts we deepen the
understanding of some central topics and themes, such as Modernism, Hybridity and Nationality.
 
You will improve your skills in these areas:
· identify and formulate key issues in a selection of works in the African
literature written in Portuguese.
· analyze and interpret literary works and critically examine their content in
their historical socio-political and cultural context
· in writing and orally communicate their own and others’ literary
interpretations with very good mastery of the Portuguese language
