Ringkasan program

This program introduces students to the study and understanding of literature beyond linguistic or national boundaries; the theory, interpretation, and criticism of literature; and its interactions with adjacent fields like visual and material culture, linguistics, film, psychology, law, and philosophy. The comparative perspective invites the exploration of such transnational phenomena as literary or cultural periods and trends (Renaissance, Romanticism, Modernism, postcolonialism) or genres and modes of discourse. Students may specialize in any cultures or languages, to the extent that they are sufficiently covered at Yale. The Ph.D. degree qualifies the candidate to teach Comparative Literature as well as the national literature(s) of her or his specialization. Students may specialize in any languages and cultures, to the extent that they are sufficiently covered at Yale (or, by arrangement, at neighboring universities). Students must successfully complete fourteen term courses, including at least seven listed under the departmental heading. The student’s overall schedule must fulfill the following requirements at least one course in medieval or classical European literature, philology, or linguistics (or their equivalents in other cultures); one course in the Renaissance or Baroque (or equivalents); and one course in the modern period; three courses in literary theory or methodology; course work dealing with texts from three literatures, one of which may be English or American. Any course may be counted for several requirements simultaneously.
