21810456 - CULTURE IN FRENCH-SPEAKING COUNTRIES

The course is offered to students who have at least an elementary knowledge of the language. It focuses on the familiarization with authors and texts belonging to the modern and contemporary French and Francophone literary field. In particular, the analysis of significant works in the original language will allow to develop the ability to understand aspects and dynamics relating to politics, society and the economy of France and the French-speaking world from the nineteenth century to today.
Expected learning outcomes: students will develop their basic language skills and will be able to rework disciplinary elements and themes in an intercultural context.

Programme

The program is divided into three parts. A first theoretical part will illustrate, in a diachronic key, the morphosyntactic foundations of modern French and some essential phases in the evolution of the French language. A second part will focus on institutional relations between France and the French-speaking world, with particular attention paid to the question of language in the French-speaking South (Africa, the Caribbean and Pacific region). Finally, a third part will focus on the linguistic and discursive analysis of enunciation in the transnational context and will be carried out on a selection of authentic texts indicated in the program and available on Moodle. All texts studied in class will be part of the exam.
As Level B1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) is an essential requirement to register the final exam grade, students who need to pass the B1 test are recommended to check well in advance the class schedule and the exam dates at the Roma Tre University Language Center (CLA).
Those students who already have a language certificate of the above-mentioned level are invited to contact the University Language Center for possible validation of such certificate.
