This seminar aims to familiarize students with the theme of time in English literature from Shakespeare to modernism. It focuses on literary works where time is foregrounded and represents one of the most important thematic or narrative aspects. Students will be encouraged to examine the development of the notion of time in English literature and to search for some parallels and differences in treatment of time in the discussed works, for example the nostalgia for the time passed, the attempt to capture the transience of time and immortalize the present moment. Moreover, the seminar involves discussions of theoretical concepts of time that were explored either by writers themselves or used by scholars to interpret the analysed literary works. These include Henri Bergson's notion of duration or Paul Ricoeur's definition of psychological, monumental, and mortal time.
