授業の概要   
 
Overview of the course   
This course gets students acquainted with the European and Anglo-American literature, music and art of the romantic era (Michael Ferber, Romanticism: A Very Short Introduction), the language of literary and cultural criticism, and contemporary literary theory. The classes will be conducted on the basis of student presentations on the text and the works mentioned in it. You will be exposed to the blasts of romantic music (Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann, and etc.), the serenity of the romantic art, and the beauty of the English and American romantic poetry (Coleridge, Wordsworth, Keats, Dickinson, Whitman, and etc.). Students will also learn the practical aspects of the advanced level of English learning through the newspaper articles assigned every week at the beginning of the class as short quizzes.
