Competencies and objectives

 

Course context for academic year 2010-11

 

La Teoría de la Literatura es la disciplina científico-literaria y, por tanto, filológica, que tiene por objeto el estudio de los problemas generales que afectan a la Literatura, al texto y al hecho literarios. En este contexto, la asignatura de “Teoría de la Literatura I” ofrece al estudiante los conceptos básicos y problemas fundamentales de la Ciencia literaria (Teoría de la Literatura, Crítica literaria, Historia de la Literatura y Literatura Comparada), así como el conocimiento de sus relaciones con las disciplinas extrafilológicas vinculadas a ella; los conceptos teórico-literarios y crítico-literarios pertenecientes a la Poética y a la Retórica clásicas y tradicionales, entendidas como antecedentes históricos de la disciplina; y los conceptos teórico-literarios y crítico-literarios pertenecientes al pensamiento estético y poético moderno. Por todo ello la asignatura de “Teoría de la Literatura I” constituye uno de los pilares básicos del Grado, al manifestarse desde un punto de vista histórico como reflexión teórica, general y abstracta de las manifestaciones literarias.
