The syllabus of the course (the order of lectures) might change due to holidays or other circumstances; it will be indicated by sending you an e- mail). regular class attendance – no more than 2 absences; attendance of lectures is obligatory, too, similarly to the seminars, you can miss no more than 2 lectures. a Portfolio – you have to prepare a file with all the materials you are given in class + you have to write an analysis of each literary work that you are obliged to read, namely: 1. Henry James. The Beast in the Jungle, 2. Ernest Hemingway: The End of Something 3. Ernest Hemingway: The Undefeated 4. Ernest Hemingway: Cat in the Rain 5. F. Scott Fitzgerald: The Great Gatsby 6. William Faulkner. The Sound and the Fury 7. Vladimir Nabokov. Spring in Fialta 8. J. D. Salinger: The Catcher in the Rye 9. Alice Walker: Everyday Use 10. Richard Brautigan: In Watermelon Sugar 11. Thomas Pynchon: The Crying of Lot 49 12. Kurt Vonnegut: Cat’s Cradle 13. Woody Allen: The Kugelmass Episode 14. Woody Allen: The Lunatic’s Tale 15. Bernard Malamud: The Prison 16. Paula Vogel: Desdemona: A Play About a Handkerchief 17. Amy Tan: Two Kinds Optimally, each author + literary work will go into a different file, so finally your portfolio will have 17 files. Basic criteria: please do read the text, not just the plot summary! In your written comment on the given work you are supposed to give a textual analysis, not the description of the plot. Prepare quotes from the text (at least 5) to support your ideas and interpret them. Make sure that you write down your own opinion and responses to the text and not just copy someone else’s from the Internet. I can only accept hand-written texts (quotes from the texts can be typed). You have to hand in your Portfolio before the oral exam, without that I cannot give you a mark. This means that starting to work on your portfolio 1 week before the oral exam will not do you any good, since it is impossible to read so many books + write an analysis/commentary for each within a week. You have to work throughout the whole course. Deadline for handing in portfolios: at least 3 days before the oral exam. 2 tests on theory – a half-term and an end-of-term test, including theory (lectures); your result must be at least 50% on average (from the two), otherwise you get an Fx in AIS; after this you have 2 exam dates for retaking the test + if succeeded, take the oral exam; if you have 50% or more, you can go for the oral exam automatically In case of online semester: there are no tests, you will be examined during an online meeting in an oral form. a presentation – each student has to give a presentation on a selected topic; if you fail to turn up on the day of the presentation without any prior notice, you will be given 2 absences. If you cannot present your topic due to some reason, you are asked to hand it in in a written form. The presentation has to be prepared in Power Point/prezi as well. The minimum number of slides: 12. You mustn’t read your presentation, please talk to the audience. active participation in class discussions during the lessons You have to watch the following films during the course: Midnight in Paris (2011) directed by Woody Allen Hemingway and Gellhorn (2012) directed by Philip Kaufman Due to the pandemic and the general lockdown in Slovakia, the course is going to start online on Zoom.

SYNOPSIS THE BRIDE - Based on “Blood Wedding” from F. García Lorca - Dirty hands tear the earth. A woman’s mouth shivers out of control. She breathes heavily, as if she were about to choke... We hear her cry, swallow, groan... Her eyes are flooded with tears. Her hands full with dry soil. There’s barely nothing left of her white dress made out of organza and tulle. It’s full of black mud and blood. Staring into the dis- tance, it’s dicult for her to breathe. Her lifeless face, dirtied with mud, soil, blood... she can’t stop crying. Although she tries to calm herself the crying is stronger, deeper. THE BRIDE, alone underneath a dried tree in the middle of a swamp, screams out loud, torn, endless... comfortless. LEONARDO, THE GROOM and THE BRIDE, play together. Three kids in a forest at the banks of a river. The three form an inseparable triangle. However LEONARDO and THE BRIDE share an invisible string, ferocious, unbreakable... THE GROOM looks at them... Years have gone by, and THE BRIDE is getting ready for her wedding. She’s unhappy. Doubt and anxiety consume her. She lives in the middle of white dessert lands, barren, in her father’s house with a glass forge.

  • False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen
    False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen by Nicholas Vick November, 2012 Director of Thesis: Amanda Klein Major Department: English Woody Allen is an auteur who is deeply concerned with the visual presentation of his cityscapes. However, each city that Allen films is presented in such a glamorous light that the depiction of the cities is falsely authentic. That is, Allen's cityscapes are actually unrealistic recreations based on his nostalgia or stilted view of the city's culture. Allen's treatment of each city is similar to each other in that he strives to create a cinematic postcard for the viewer. However, differing themes and characteristics emerge to define Allen's optimistic visual approach. Allen's hometown of Manhattan is a place where artists, intellectuals, and writers can thrive. Paris denotes a sense of nostalgia and questions the power behind it. Allen's London is primarily concerned with class and the social imperative. Finally, Barcelona is a haven for physicality, bravado, and sex but also uncertainty for American travelers. Despite being in these picturesque and dynamic locations, happiness is rarely achieved for Allen's characters. So, regardless of Allen's dreamy and romanticized visual treatment of cityscapes and culture, Allen is a director who operates in a continuous state of contradiction because of the emotional unrest his characters suffer.

  • “Old Sport” Is Jay Gatsby's Way of Life: Familiarity, Snobbery, Ridicule
    東洋大学人間科学総合研究所紀要 第21号(2019)27‐4327 “Old Sport” Is Jay Gatsby’s Way of Life: Familiarity, Snobbery, Ridicule, and Failure* Tomoyuki ASAKAWA** 1. Introduction F. Scott Fitzgerald gave Jay Gatsby certain characteristics in The Great Gatsby (1925). One of them is his “smile,” another is “old sport.”1 “[In] Gatsby, Fitzgerald made the smile a chief part of the character’s makeup. The smile becomes as synonymous with Gatsby as the use of ‘old sport’” (Dubose, 90n). Since Fitzgerald was aware of the importance of the phrase, he increased its usage in the narrative―it appeared only 4 times in the manuscript (Bruccoli, Introduction xxix-xxx), 38 times in the galleys, and 45 times in the published edition.2 His use of “old sport,” drastically increased through the revisions, contributes to making Gatsby conspicuous― “The ‘old sport’ phrase [. .] fixes Gatsby as precisely as his gorgeous pink rag of a suit” (Eble 90). Gatsby him- self uses “old sport” 42 times out of 45 uses. “Old sport” is not a mere term of address. It was originally an “early twentieth-century British upper-class slang term” (Randall III 191) and a sophisticated phrase used among students at Oxford in those days.3 Jay Gatsby, however, is neither an alumnus of Oxford nor a member of the upper class. Moreover, the inconsistency of the novel makes “old sport” more difficult to comprehend. In Gatsby, a person from a certain class does not necessarily exhibit behaviors, language, or a manner of speech suited to their class. The man whose “parents were shiftless and unsuccessful farm people” (Gatsby 76; henceforth GG ) in the Middle West does not act in tune with his origin.

Seit seiner Jugend schwärmt Gil von der dortigen Künstlerszene der Zwanzigerjahre. Wenn er nur damals hätte leben können! Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Gertrude Stein - das sind die Idole des erfolgreichen Hollywood- Drehbuchautoren, der sich sehnlichst wünscht, als ernst zu nehmender Schriftsteller zu reüssieren. Inez hat kein Verständnis für seine Schwärmerei. Eines Abends bricht Gil alleine auf und verirrt sich bei seinem Streifzug durch die Straßen der Stadt der Liebe. Punkt Mitternacht geschieht etwas Wundersames: Gil wird von einer Limousine aufgelesen, die ihn geradewegs in die Roaring Twenties transportiert, zu all den legendären Künstlern, die er immer schon bewundert hat! Mit einem Mal ist nichts mehr so, wie es vorher war... PRESSENOTIZ So romantisch und hinreißend war Woody Allen schon lange nicht mehr! Allens 42.

Archiving Art The Value of Nostalgia in Hemingway's A Moveable Feast Jared Michael Pence In 1979, Fred Davis published his book Yearning for Yesterday: A Sociology of Nostalgia, in which he prophesied that “it is conceivable that ‘nostalgia’ qua word will in time acquire connotations that extend its meaning to any sort of positive feeling toward anything past, no mat- ter how remote or historical” [emphasis in the original] (8). Davis’s prophesy about feeling nostalgic for what we’ve never experienced seems to have come true, evidenced by the Oxford English Dictionary’s definition of nostalgia as a “sentimental longing for or regretful memory of a period of the past, esp. one in an individual’s own lifetime,” where nostalgia is first and foremost for the vague “period of the past” and is only specific to an individual’s experience in “especial” cases (“nostalgia”).
