FRENCH SOCIETY AND LANGUAGE USE
This course forms part of the Rice in France study abroad program. It invites students to extend their knowledge and practice of French towards a more complex, appropriate, and subtle use of the language. Learners will discover and discuss a range of social topics from cultural difference, gender & social inequality in today’s French society, to social networking and migration & discrimination. In order to discuss these sociocultural topics, students will cover complex grammatical structures such as: anteriority, posteriority, and simultaneity. The course will cover expressions of subjectivity as well as reported speeches, linking words, and expression of opinion.
