By analyzing the myths and legends that have withstood the passage of time, we can better understand the way people of a specific region perceive(d) the world around them. France has its share of myths, marvels and haunted manors. From La F\u00e9e M\u00e9lusine, to the legend of the Ch\u00e2teau d\u00bfIf, Barbe Bleue, the Beast of the G\u00e9vaudan, the Monoliths of Carnar, the Cathars knights and the Abbaye of Mortemer among many others, few among the French people have never heard some or all these stories of unexplained phenomena, ghost-inhabited fortresses and nocturnal encounters of the spooky kind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this course, students will be introduced to the `marvelous\u00bf and `supernatural\u00bf genres as defined by Tzvetan Todorov. We will read excerpts of French texts as well as watch some of the movies that have adapted these myths for modern audiences. This course aims to define the French collective imagination and its evolution. As a group, we will ponder the following questions: Where do these myths and legends come from? What do they tell us about the time during which they emerged? How and why did they manage to transcend space and time? What do they tell us about the French, their collective imagination, and their relationship to fear, from then to now?&nbsp; Prerequisite: Completion of at least one course from FR300-FR315, or permission of the instructor and department chair. (U)(3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fr325-nbsp-intro-to-french-linguistics\">FR325&nbsp;Intro to French Linguistics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Basic elements of French linguistics, phonetics, phonology, and stylistics.

(U)(3) Occasionally<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fr335-french-humor\">FR335\u00a0French Humor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Laughter and humor are deeply anchored in the fabric of what makes us human. As French philosopher Henri Bergson states in his essay \u00bfLaughter,\u00bf laughing is a reflex brought about by a stimulus, may it be a word, an object or a situation. It can even erupt as the manifestation of nervosity. Yet, what actually makes us laugh is also, and more importantly, inherently cultural. It does not take one long in a foreign country to realize that understanding humor in a foreign language constitutes one of the most difficult tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting in the Middle-Ages with Gargantua, the students will be exposed to excerpts from French canonic texts, plays and graphic art to grasp the evolution of French humor up to now. Students will become familiar with some of the most famous French comedies, known jokes and stand-up comedians that the French considered hilarious then and now. What makes the French laugh and why? These are the questions this course aims to answer. Prerequisite: Completion of at least one course from FR300-FR315, or permission of the instructor and department chair.
