	39704	Lecture-Discussion	G3	3:00PM -4:50PM	MW	1030 Foreign Languages Building	Schehr, L	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/24/09-12/09/09 Credit: 3 hours Section Info: TOPIC: Proust and His Era, I Considered one of the most important novelists of the twentieth century, Marcel Proust was a pillar of modernist writing, as illustrated in his massive seven-volume novel, A la recherche du temps perdu. Witness to a changing world forged in the defeat of 1870, the Dreyfus Affair, and World War I, Proust catalogued the move from a traditional nineteenth-century, still grounded in aristocratic and upper-middle-class models, to a more democratic, republican society. In his novel, he provides analyses of social structures, family life, Parisian society, social movements, sexualities, gender roles, religion, citizenship, politics, science, and the arts. This (two-semester) course will engage Proust and his era, along with secondary readings and relevant material from the time in which he was writing. Course discussions in English; written work for graduate students will be in French. Undergraduates may opt to read some of the novel in English and write in either French or English. It is highly recommended that students take this course in order to be able to take the course taught in Spring, 2010: Proust and His Era, II Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
