Description:

The course will begin with an introduction to Catalan grammar. After students have a basic command of the language, they will be encouraged to read a wide range of texts written in Catalan related to many different topics. The texts have been selected not only for their linguistic value, but also because of the cultural aspects they introduce. The course will include activities designed to teach students about Catalonia, its culture and its traditions. For example, students will have the opportunity to listen to songs, watch films, news reports, etc. All texts will be provided by the professor and handed out in class. Students are welcome to bring to class any Catalan text of their interest. Classes will be conducted in Catalan as much as possible. Therefore, some knowledge of another Latin language is required.
