Nous offrons un milieu exceptionnel dans lequel étudier l’anglais au Canada.
Les étudiants peuvent préparer un B.A. en littérature anglaise (ELIT) ou en rhétorique anglaise et études des médias (ERMS), deux volets qui sont intégrés grâce au partage de certains cours.
L’option ELIT, fondée sur la critique et la théorie littéraires, amène les étudiants à perfectionner leurs techniques d’interprétation et de communication en les exposant à un large éventail de lectures critiques, c’est-à-dire de textes et de genres littéraires historiquement et géographiquement variés et propres à renforcer leur capacité à réagir de manière critique.
Offerte uniquement à Sudbury, l’option ERMS repose sur la théorie de la rhétorique, à savoir l’étude du mode d’emploi du langage pour influencer autrui, et amène les étudiants à développer leurs capacités critiques et de rédaction de textes écrits, oraux et visuels, de genres des plus divers : cinéma, allocution publique, communication professionnelle et composition littéraire.
