Kopie: Research Methodology in European Modern Languages and Literatures (summer semester 2024)

The main idea of this lecture is to provide better insight into the contact of cultures and societies in the Victorian novel. Based on several Victorian novels (`Vanity Fair`, `Great Expectations`, `Wuthering Heights`...) we will discuss the consequences of various contacts between cultures and societies in the framework of the Victorian England. Also, we will emphasize the main features of these contacts presented in the novel structure, character development, chronotope etc.
