COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
Prof.ssa Dvorak The Language of Physical Education and Sport in the United States
A lecture which outlines a brief history of Physical Education and Sport in the United States, concentrating on the period of its most significant development (1850-1920). Student participation in discussions (small groups and pair work) also plays an important role throughout the lesson. For example, students are asked to share their respective experiences regarding physical education in their schooling. Reference texts include Daryl Siedentop, Introduction to Physical Education, Fitness, and Sport; (McGraw-Hill Education 2008) Subsequently, relevant data and statistics are examined in order to stimulate a discussion on the efficacy of physical education in the American school system in combating the evermore serious social/health problem tied to a sedentary lifestyle and obesity. Throughout, certain linguistic aspects (especially lexical) are highlighted as well as various idiomatic expressions related to the topic. If students choose this topic for their final evaluation, they are asked to write a brief paper based on one of the various questions discussed in class.
Prof.ssa Lazzaro Landscape/Langscape
In this lecture, students will become familiar with the language of Australian poetry. They will see how poetic expression was initially influenced by the European tradition and how the physical experience of the landscape shaped the work of twentieth-century poets. Students will analyse how the language and the lexis helped create a personal and social identity of a newly colonised country. The sources used are C. Wallace Crabbe, The Golden Apples of the Sun; Twentieth Century Australian Poetry (MUP, 1980) and P. Pierce, The Cambridge History of Australian Literature (CUP, 2009). Students will select a landscape poem that they have studied or encountered in their lives and present a brief written analysis of how it has influenced their own personal or social identity. Please download the notes below and bring them to the lecture.
Prof.ssa Sainsbury Caribbean English
This lecture presents the principal linguistic characteristics of the geographical variety of English used in the Caribbean through the detailed analysis of three poems. Though principally a frontal lecture, with lecture notes provided by the professor, the students actively intervene and do some pair work during class. Reference texts include Jennifer Jenkins, World Englishes: A Resource Book for Students, (London,Routledge, 2003) and Stephan Gramley, Kurt-Michael Pátzold, A Survey of Modern English,(London, Routledge, 2004). If students choose this topic for their final evaluation, they are asked to write a brief paper which centres on the linguistic analysis of a short poem. They base their work mainly on the information given during the lecture and on the lecture notes provided.
