Content
The aim of the seminar is to propose a method of textual analysis of the temporal dimension present in poetic or narrative texts. After a precise narratological description, the significance of the temporal dimension of literature will be appreciated in the light of different theoretical frameworks that can be worked on separately or combined according to the case: environmental humanities, decolonial thought, or certain philosophical references (such as the work of Ricoeur, for example).
Teaching methods
The seminar will be based on the students' readings and interactions, which will allow them to progressively build the theoretical and methodological framework, as well as to become familiar with the proposed corpus of novels. A first written and then oral version will be the occasion of a first formative evaluation before the final written version is submitted.
Evaluation methods
Assessment is based on the presentation of a written paper at the end of the semester, following discussion of a provisional project in the seminar. In case of insufficient participation in the seminar (preparatory documents not read;  provisional or oral version not presented; absence from the discussions), the student will not be able to pass the course.
