Course - Trial lecture in Scandinavian Studies - NORD3503
Trial lecture in Scandinavian Studies
About
About the course
Course content
The content of NORD3503 will be defined by the reading list, which is supposed to have a clear scholarly profile. The student may follow one NORD2000-course and use the reading list for the NORD2000-course as the reading list for NORD3503. Alternatively, the student may choose the reading list freely. The course will then be an independent study. The scholarly profile of the reading list should not be identical to that of the student's master's thesis. Moreover, the reading list for NORD3503 should not overlap to any great extent with the literature list for the student's master's thesis. The reading list should also not overlap with those of previous courses that the student has taken. Literary variant: The student prepares an individual reading list of 4 fictional works and approx. 300 pages of relevant theoretical literature. Linguistic variant: The student composes an individual reading list of approx. 450-500 pages
