Section A: Modern Literary Theory
This unit will introduce learners to some of the major theoretical positions of the 20th century over issues of language, literary form and representation. It aims to acquaint the learners with a number of theories as applied to literature, such as Structuralism/Formalism, Psychoanalysis, Feminism, Queer Theory, Poststructuralism and Postcolonialism. Texts under scrutiny may range from prose to poetry and from the written to the spoken to the visual.
