Annotation
The introduction to the philology of the French language is presented in two parts – linguistic and literary-theoretical. In the former, the students are acquainted with language in terms of langue, parole and langage, with its structure and mechanisms of its functioning, with the disciplines exploring them as well as with the structure and diachrony of French diasystem. In the latter, the students obtain theoretical knowledge and solidify the essential understanding of literary theory, literary history and literary criticism with an emphasis on French philology. The acquired knowledge is adopted by the students‘ lecture of scientific literary articles from Czech and foreign experts in Romance languages and by the interpretation of French literary texts. Each student keeps a reading journal in French. The students are able to discern and understand the terms from literary theory: history, criticism, comparative studies, world literature, francophone literature, interpretation, the reception of a literary work, the Romance studies in Czech and global context.
