【Course Objectives】

As outlined in the curriculum map, this seminar aims at consolidating the knowledge and methods of the relevant academic discipline in order to enable students to practice various research activities, including discussion, presentation, and essay composition. Specifically, it focuses on an interwar novella and encourages students to construct an original argument. It is hoped that the seminar further refines students' analytical skills.

【Course Contents】

The First World War irreversibly changed society at the beginning of the twentieth century and had an enormous impact on the literature and culture of the time. Writers who lived through it wrote about the ‘Great War' from a variety of perspectives. Of these writers' works, this seminar will focus on Rebecca West's novella The Return of the Soldier (1918). Although not a full-length novel, it is a story of complex chronology and human relationships, with a war veteran who has lost his memory at the centre of the narrative. Including references to things that were characteristic of the period, such as shell shock and psychoanalysis, the text will enable you to better understand twentieth-century British literature and culture, while improving your ability to analyse literature in Engtlish.
