Subject matter
Whereas the literature operates a opening of borders between various types and modes of discourse, we adopt interdisciplinary perspectives of study that could guide the problematization of the themes proposed - the ficcionality, the secret, the becoming, the emotion, the unexpected. The works to be studied are: Charles Baudelaire, Le spleen de Paris . Petits Poèmes en prose; T.S. Eliot, The Love Song of Alfred Prufrock; Virgínia Woolf, \"Un Unwritten Wall\", \"The Mark on the Wall\", \"Monday or Tuesday\".

Teaching method
The classes will be theoretical and practical. Exposure, criticism and discussion of interpretations will be based in the reading and analysis of literary texts. This procedure calls for the student participation, in order to provide them with the argumentative practice.
Evaluation method
The evaluation will consist of: 1. oral presentation of themes in the choice of students - 30%; 2. A test on the studied subjects - 70%.
