Introduction

This booklet contains short descriptions of the courses being offered by the English Section in the autumn semester 2007, together with lists of the required reading (pensum) for these courses. In some cases, recommended further reading is also listed here.

Fuller descriptions of the courses – including teaching schedules, submission dates for term papers, etc. – will be available through It’s:Learning.

Note that if you do not register for a course, you will not have access to information regarding that course on It’s:Learning. If you are interested in taking a particular course, you should register at an early stage (you can withdraw from the exam later should you decide not to complete the course).

Further information regarding the courses offered by the English Section is available in the web version of the studiehåndbok. This is the best place for checking details of obligatory assignments and the means of evaluation for each course.

Dictionaries

Whatever courses in English you are taking you should have an English-English dictionary and an English-Norwegian/Norwegian-English dictionary.

English-English

In the final examinations for courses in English you are allowed to consult an English-English dictionary – but not any English-English dictionary. You will find a list of dictionaries which have been approved for use in examinations in the Studiehåndbok (pp. 150-51), and we recommend that you obtain one of these. The following are approved:

• Collins COBUILD English (Advanced Learner’s) Dictionary (britisk)
• The Concise Oxford Dictionary (britisk)
• Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English (britisk)
• Longman Dictionary of American English
• Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary (amerikansk)
• Random-House Webster’s College Dictionary (amerikansk)
• Cambridge Advanced Learners Dictionary

Note that for use in an examination your dictionary should NOT contain your own notes. Your dictionary may be checked during the examination, and removed if it does not meet the criteria for acceptability.

English-Norwegian/Norwegian-English

We recommend:

• Engelsk blå ordbok: Engelsk-norsk/norsk-engelsk (Kunnskapsforlaget)

This is a relatively cheap publication which will cover most of what you need for your studies.

We also recommend:

• Engelsk stor ordbok: Engelsk-norsk/norsk-engelsk (Kunnskapsforlaget)

This is a more comprehensive dictionary – but it is also more expensive. If you intend to study English up to a high level, it may be worthwhile investing in this volume.

Pronunciation Dictionary

We recommend:

• J. C. Wells, Longman Pronunciation Dictionary

Dictionaries of synonyms and idioms

There is a wide range of books of this kind, and it is difficult to isolate the most useful. However, these may prove to be of most interest to Norwegian students of English:

• S. Follestad, Engelske idiomer
• The Longman Dictionary of Idioms
• The Penguin Dictionary of English Synonyms & Antonyms

ENG1001 Global Engelsk
7.5 stp
Course leader: Siri Salvesen (osalv@online.no)

Outline

English, more than any other language, is now the language of global communication – it is arguably the first global language. ‘Global English’ is an interdisciplinary course which explores the phenomenon of English in the world from a range of different intellectual viewpoints, using the methods associated with the different sub-disciplines within English studies.

Why has English become a global language? What is the historical basis for the current status of English in the world? How does a language attain international currency? How does English vary around the world? Why are there so many varieties of English in terms of pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, and spelling? What are the personal consequences of having a language imposed upon you, or of growing up with two or more languages? Is English a valuable lingua franca or a linguistic tyrant?

Questions such as these are explored through a series of lectures presented by a team of teachers from NTNU’s English Section. These teachers examine global English from their various specialist perspectives, and an additional function of the course will therefore be to introduce the different types of academic activity within English studies: linguistics, the history of English-language societies, literary studies, and so on.

Pensum

• David Crystal, English as a Global Language, latest edition (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press)
• Laurie Bauer, An Introduction to International Varieties of English (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2002)
• ‘Global Engelsk’, a compendium of texts reproduced by Tapir Akademisk Forlag and available through the Tapir bookshop.

Begin by exploring the bibliographies in the Crystal and Bauer books.

Since this course addresses a phenomenon which is still changing, you are encouraged to look out for stories in the contemporary media concerning the spread of English, the threatened status of small languages, the role of English in Norway, and international language politics in general.

ENG1201: Språkferdighet
7,5 stp
Course leaders: Anja Angelsen (anja.angelsen@hf.ntnu.no), Eileen Stoupe (Eileen.stoupe@hf.ntnu.no)

Outline

The course gives an introduction to the main problem areas in formulating written English for students whose first language is Norwegian. Language proficiency is practised through translation from Norwegian to English, and various types of written exercises. The course focuses on central contrasts between Norwegian and English, for example, in relation to grammatical and pragmatic differences and equivalences. Written English conventions associated with a variety of applications are described, and an introduction is given to various text genres.

The main goal of this course is to increase students’ awareness of the English language, central aspects of the writing process, and their own level of proficiency. In this course, students are introduced to various English language conventions and to techniques for developing their own language abilities, and students will practice skills associated with structuring texts and different text genres.

Teaching is divided between lectures and group sessions. In addition, students are offered supervision. The lectures cover central contrasts between Norwegian and English, linguistic conventions in English, various text genres, approaches to writing/process-oriented writing, etc. Lectures will also involve student activities in the form of writing, translation, grammar exercises, discussion groups, etc. In the group sessions, the use of English is emphasised through practical exercises such as translation from Norwegian to English, free writing, writing a variety of text types, etc. Students should buy an approved English-English dictionary (see list under the general description) and are expected to bring a dictionary to all classes. Students are also expected to use It’s:learning regularly.

Fordypningsnivå

ENG2155 Teoretiske og praktiske aspekter ved grammatikk og oversettelse
7,5 stp
Course leader: Chris Wilder (christopher.wilder@hf.ntnu.no)

Outline

This course is an in-depth introduction to the basic issues of the grammar of English and ways of describing and explaining them using advanced theoretical approaches. Students will be introduced to syntactic analysis using the Principles-and-Parameters theory as outlined in the work of Chomsky and others.

Syntax is the study of sentence structure, how words are put together to form larger meaningful units. As well as introducing the theory per se, we will be concerned with syntactic argumentation: how hypotheses are formed and evaluated on the basis of language data and theoretical assumptions and objectives.

The course will largely deal with data from English, but will also consider some facts about Norwegian and related English-Norwegian contrasts. It aims to provide a deeper insight into three areas: (i) the system of grammar of human languages as conceived in current syntactic theorizing (ii) the grammar and syntactic structures of English, and (iii) some English/Norwegian contrasts in the area of syntax, which can be employed both indirectly and directly to problems in translation.

ENG2302 Litteratur II: Litteratur og historie
7.5 stp
Course leader: Paul Goring (paul.goring@hf.ntnu.no)

This semester’s variant: Literature in eighteenth-century Britain

Outline

The eighteenth century was an era of significant changes for Britain, and with a major expansion of the printing industry it was also a vibrant and dynamic period of literary production. This course provides an introduction to eighteenth-century British literature as well as to the society within which that literature was written and read. The course is structured around major social and cultural issues of the time – for example, urban expansion, the emergence of Britain as a nation, the effects of colonial growth – and the works of literature under scrutiny have been selected for their capacity to illustrate such issues or for their aspirations to intervene in society and influence the ways in which Britain was developing. A broader aim of the course is to open up an examination of the relationship between literature and its historical circumstances, and to stimulate reflection upon how we read literary works from earlier periods and upon the function of historicisation within literary interpretation.

Pensum

The pensum consists of a fairly large number of short texts and extracts which have been selected not only to represent issues within eighteenth-century British society but also to reflect the wide variety of genres employed by writers of the period. The pensum also includes a small number of recent introductory works addressing eighteenth-century society and literature.

Note that the pensum includes extracts from novels rather than whole novels – students are encouraged to read the novels in their entirely, but it is not compulsory. A further list of recommended, non-pensum eighteenth-century novels will be made available for students interested in wider reading of the fiction of the period.

All of the pensum texts can be obtained by buying two collections:

• The Norton Anthology of English Literature, Volume C: The Restoration and the Eighteenth Century, 8th edition (New York and London: Norton, 2006) [NOTE: This volume is extracted from Vol. 1 of the larger Norton Anthology of English Literature (8th edition) – if you already have this book, you do NOT need to buy Volume C in addition.]

Masteremner

Teori og metode

All MA students must complete 15 stp in Theory and Method. Starting in Autumn 2007 a new and broader offering of such courses will be available. There are three alternatives.

1. Those who intend to write their master’s thesis on a literary topic must take LITT3000 Litteraturteori og tekstforståelse. This consists of two elements, one fellesdel for all students, and one fagspesifikk del (local element). The fellesdel will be taught by staff from the Department of Nordic and Comparative Literature (INL). The local element, for students taking their MA in English only, will be taught within the Department of Modern Foreign Languages (IFS). INS will be administratively in charge of the emne as a whole, and details of the pensum &c for the fellesdel will be available from INL. Details of the pensum for the local element for students of English are provided below.

2. Those who intend to write their master’s thesis on a language or linguistics topic must take SPRÅK3000 Språkvitenskapens teorier og metoder. This emne also consists of a fellesdel and a fagspesifikk del (local element). The Department of Modern Foreign Languages is administratively responsible for this emne. Details of both halves of this emne are appended below.

3. Those who intend to write their master’s thesis on a civilization topic must choose two from three 7.5 stp emner. These are

• HIST3105 Innføring i historisk forskning (7,5 sp)
• HIST3115 Historiefagets teori og historie (7,5 sp
• EUR3401 Europeisk kulturhistorie: Teori og metode (7,5 sp)

Details of the first two emner must be obtained from the Department of History and Classical Studies. Details of the third emne can be obtained from the pensum booklet for European Studies and Foreign Languages, which is available from the Department of Modern Foreign Languages.

Note: if you have already taken ENG3001 Teori and Metode you are not required to take one of the three variants listed above. However, as ENG3001 covers very different ground from these three variants you may, if you wish, incorporate both ENG3001 and one of the above variants in your portfolio of emner for your MA in English.

II: Course description / syllabus for the subject-based (English) component

This part of the course will deal with aspects of word meaning and sentence structure (lexicon, syntax, semantics) within the framework of generative grammar. It will examine the relation between verb semantics and sentence structure patterns; verbs and their arguments; and the notion of diathesis – alternate ways of realising the arguments of a verb in a sentence. Topics covered will include the active-passive relation; unaccusativity; the middle construction; verb alternations such as locative shift; and resultative constructions.

Autumn 2007 variant: The Fiction of Joseph Conrad

Course description: Conrad is now generally recognized to be one of the great novelists in English of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and a key figure in the development of literary modernism.

Conrad’s Polish background, and his life as an exile and an émigré, give his writing a much broader scope than that of most of his contemporaries. His earlier reputation as master-storyteller has been refined in the light of developments in narrative theory and he is now considered to be a major innovator in terms of narrative technique. His fiction confronts a range of issues which, it is now generally acknowledged, engage with many moral, political and existential issues that are central to modern experience. Critics representing a range of recent theories and positions – feminism and masculinity studies, post-colonialism, New Historicism, narratology – have had much to say about Conrad’s work, and such responses to it will be considered in the course.
