The course aims to help students deepen their language skills through selected literary texts and audiovisual media of different origins. In order to familiarize them with as many characteristics of Arabic literature and language as possible, literary genres from different historical and geographical contexts will be read and analyzed, thus enhancing students' reading and translation skills as well as their grammatical knowledge.
