Forløb #5 - Evil
During this course students will work with the concept of evil. How can evil be defined? Are you born evil or is it something that you are raised to be? The students will analyse and interpret different short stories with a focus on how the concept of evil is expressed. The analysis and interpretation of the literary texts will focus on obtaining knowledge of the terms setting, characterisation, composition, and point of view. Furthermore, the students will learn how to compose an essay with a correct structure and with a special focus on the analysis of fiction.
