Learning outcomes

The nature of this seminar is a development of previous theoretical seminars, especially of Narratology I. The central issue is still in interpretation, but our interest is now more focused on "secondary" analytistic cathegories (text types, narrative modes, mind for fiction etc.). Interpreted texts are so much different than before - extension of other types of narratives (historical narration, film and TV narrations, narration of digital games, radio trasmission narration...). Narratology is presented as a way of learing about historical events, as a artifact mirroring the reflection of the past and also as a bearer of so called collective memory.
Student acquires terminology and analytical tools for the description, analysis and interpretation of narrative; uses appropriate terminology; understand the basic theoretical concepts and he is also capable of independent usage. Student understands the narrative as a cognitive artifact also as an instrument of ideological practices that can even refer on the outside and it is capable of showing the "history" and the fiction. Student can see as an carrier of the memory etc.
