Set texts? New approaches to the teaching of literature in languages and related/area studies
June 6th 2003 at CILT, London
The Subject Centre will be holding a one-day seminar to explore innovatory approaches to the teaching of literature in or translated from languages other than English. Particular emphasis will be placed on the evolving role of literature both as a subject of study in its own right (e.g. in language and area studies programmes) and as a tool of study in other disciplines (e.g. business, politics and the sciences).
