Assessment and permitted materials

Assessment will be on the basis of a written final test. Students are expected to study all the texts on the reading list.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The course will survey changing attitudes to foreign ethnicities in texts from the 17th to the end of the 19th century. We will analyze some of the stereotypes of xenophobic discourse and the stylistic means by which prejudices were mediated by means of action and characters, but also how they could be questioned and re-interpreted.
