Titel 2 The American Dream and Rhetorics, EKSAMEN

In this course we dive into the foundation of America - starting with the Pilgrims and immigrants coming to the US from Europe mainly. We look at the American Dream they had with them.
When we have the background in place we begin to look at the American Dream today - that is how it's a fundamental value to all Americans and whether or not the American Dream is actually possible for all.
We add rhetorics to the mix by looking at speeches on the topic to see how they define the American Dream.

Methods for analysis: non-fiction and rhetorical analysis. During the course we watch the film "The Pursuit of Happyness" - so you are also introduced to film analysis in English.

Titel 4 The Odd One Out + postmodern Lit. Værk1, EKSAMEN

We read the novel "Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine" by Gail Honeymann as our "work no. 1" (værklæsning) - meanwhile we watch the tv-series "Normal People" based on a novel by Sally Rooney and read a couple of short stories and background information about postmodern Literature.

Titel 12 The History of Protest in Scotland

We spend a day (2 lesson) on the theme of Scotland's history of political protest and activites - we watch the documentary "Everybody to Kenmure Street" (+ expert talk) in the cinema in the morning and return to this in class in the evening

Ungdox' egne ord om arrangementet:
Dokumentarfilmfestivalen CPH:DOX's undervisningsprogram UNG:DOX inviterer onsdag d. 11/3 lærere og elever i engelsk til et arrangement, der dykker ned i Skotlands og Glasgows historie for protestbevægelser og aktioner, med visningen af dokumentaren ‘Everybody To Kenmure Street’, og et efterfølgende ekspertoplæg.

Om filmen: I maj 2021 udløser en razzia fra det britiske indenrigsministerium en af de mest spontant opståede og succesrige civile modstandsaktioner i nyere tid. I Skotlands mest mangfoldige kvarter strømmer beboere ud på gaden for at forhindre deportationen af deres naboer. Denne morgen i Glasgow, den første dag af Eid, midt under Corona, begyndte som alle andre. Men da naboerne via lokale meddelelsesnetværk hører, at to lokale mænd er blevet anholdt med henblik på udvisning, forlader hundredvis af mennesker deres morgenborde, Zoom-møder og dagligdag for at skynde sig ned til Kenmure Street i solidaritet med deres naboer. Selvom de fleste ikke kendte hinanden og der ingen planlægning var gået forud, organiserede denne ekstremt mangfoldige gruppe sig og påtog sig forskellige afgørende roller for at gøre det muligt at nå sit mål om løsladelsen af deres naboer. Dokumentaren fletter denne fascinerende historie sammen med fortællingen om Glasgows særlige tradition for protestbevægelser imod staten, og reflekterer over hvor den kultur stammer fra. 'Everybody To Kenmure Street' er et yderst interessant indblik i, hvad der driver denne civile modstand, hvilke forskellige solidaritetskampe der er blevet kæmpet i Skotland og Glasgow frem mod denne case fra 2021, og den rolle Skotlands eget koloniale forhold til England spiller i dette.

Sprog: Engelsk

Oplæg: Historie-formidler og podcast vært, Katrine Nyland Sørensen, vil i forlængelse af visningen sætte os ind i Skotlands og Glasgows lange tradition for protestbevægelser, hvordan det hænger sammen med arbejderbevægelsen og hvorfor det adskiller sig fra protestkulturen og -historien i Danmark.
