Arabic Readings in Belles-Lettres

1 Course Unit

Through engaging with authentic texts, this advanced class aims to activate the language skills students have learned in previous language courses. We will read selections from Arabic poetry and prose and will respond to them in writing, discussion and translation. We will focus on close reading, relying on our knowledge of grammar. We will also work to develop writing, comprehension, and speaking skills through short critical responses and oral presentations. All class discussions will be conducted in Arabic.
