Ann Arbor: Michigan University Microfilms International, 1986 'AL306 Renaissance Literary Culture (Not offered in 1994) No. of hours per week: three hours Prerequisites: two stage two literature subjects or approved equivalents Assessment: continuous The principal aim of this subject is to critically investigate the ways in which we read and interpret the literature of the Renaissance. Not losing sight of our position as late twentieth century reader;, this subject explores the place that literature occupied within Renaissance culture as a whole. Drawing on contemporary theoretical models, it seeks to relate the historical phenomenon of the Renaissance to the modernlpostmodern debate. Recommended reading Healy, T. New Latitudes. Theory and English Renaisrance Literature. London: Edward Arnold, 1992 * Not available to students who have previously passed AL203 Renaissance Literature. AL400 Reading and Writing Seminar No. of hours per week: two hours per fornight over two semesters Assessment: folio and participation in seminars and workshops Subject aims and description The aim of this subject is to present students with a wide variety of options in writing and its production, together with a time and a place to explore in greater depth elements of the elective subjects which are of special interest to them. Seminars may take a variety of forms, from "Writers Reading" sessions in which original work is presented, to the formal and informal seminar, the writers' workshop, the element of dramatic performance. As part of their course students will be encouraged to attend and report on public functions such as the Melbourne Writers' Festival and participate in community arts events, e.g. open reading at various Melbourne venues. It is envisaged that students will produce a collection of their writing as part of the year's activities. References Daniel, H. (ed.) Expressway. Ringwood: knguin, 1989 Daniel, H. (ed.) Millennium. Ringwood: Penguin, 1991 AL401 Writingproject No. of hours per week: two hours per fortnight over two semesters Prerequisite (or co-requisite for full-time students): AL400 Reading and Writing Seminar Instruction: workshop and supervision Assessment: an extended piece of writing and workshop participation Subject aims and description This subject provides students with the opportunity to work on an extended piece of writing in an atmosphere of support, encouragement and mutual critical advice. It allows for expansion and elaboration of themes encountered in previous writing subjects, with an anticipated outcome being "finding one's own voice': A series of workshops will provide the basis for the evolution of the longer work out of preliminary drafts. Reference Grenville, K. The Writing Book. A Wrkbook for Fiction Writers. Sydney: Allen and Unwin, 1992 AL402 Writing, Theory, Praxis No. of hours per week: three hours Assessment: essay, creative piece, folio and workshop participation Subject aims and description This subject is an exploration of the relationship between various theories and practices of writing. Combining modern literaly and critical theories, practical workshop writing, and the examination of a wide range of literary genres, this subject is an investigation of what writing is, how it is produced and how it operates within a changing culture. The aim of this subject is to involve students in the creative and critical processes of reading and writing. As a departure from historicist studies of literary theory, reading, writing and criticism will be conducted in a way that invites students to explore and to investigate questions rather than seek predetermined answers. Apart from coordinated class and assessment activities students will also be encouraged to pursue their own theoretical inquiries and creative projects and to initiate alternative forms of presentation.

Basingstoke, Macmillan, 1988 AL403 Narrative Writing No. of hours per week: three hours Assessment: a folio of writing. workshop participation and exercises Subject aims and description This subject will introduce students to the range of skills required of the professional writer of fiction. A series of workshop exercises will develop skills in creating character. dialogue and dramatic tension. Point of view, voice, form, style, plot, tone, and description and their place in building a story will be explored. The importance of revision, listening to criticism and developing a self-critical stance will be stressed, together with techniques for developing these personal skills. Developing skills in critical and creative thinking and the application of these skills in various practices of writing fiction will be included: e.g. plugging into both rational and irrational processes; the role of conjectural thinking, intuition and luck; the use of analogies,
metaphor, and associative thinking; perceiving and creating relationships. Emphasis is placed on the participants as writer and critic. References Grenville, K. The Writing Book.

Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1992 A1405 From Book to Film: Textuality and Discourse No. of hours per week: three hours Assessment: essay, script and seminar participation Subject aims and description This subject explores the relationships between discourse and reception through the adaptation of texts. It will be organised around a case study (eg. multi-media adaptations of Bram Stoker's Dracula), and involve the examination of issues of reproduction and authenticity, as well as the cultural impact of new writing technologies on popular textual discourse. Students will be encouraged to use and reflect upon different electronic modes of communication 2 and delivery, and to utilize computer applications to produce n g an adaptation proposal.

There will be a written contract between student and supervising lecturer, issued as a preliminary to enrolment, which will state the project, the form of assignment and the date of completion of the project. As an example, this subject offers the opportunity for students to work in genres such as romance, science fiction, fantasy and the thriller, where learning opportunities and experiences exist outside formal academic institutions, with the Nwa Mob, Sisters in Crime, fandom and fanzines, etc. AM102 Media and Meanings: An Introduction No. of hours per week: three hours Assessment: continuous Subject aims and description This subject introduces an analytical approach to media texts. Though it will refer to print and radio forms, it will primarily concern itself with film andlor television. Our interest in studying these texts is not so much to establish their worth, or otherwise, as to draw attention to the mechanics of our work as readers, to the ways in which we produce meanings from (or are confused by) the texts, to the methods they use in order to produce meanings, and to the values they embody in their representations. The texts for study will be selected from fiction and documentary films, television series, news and current affairs programs, music videos, advertisements, variety and sports shows, and children's programs. They will be examined within the context of textual theory, with particular attention being given to their visual aspects. References Bennett, W.L. News: The Fblitirs of Illusion, 2nd ed.

It examines the political context of broadcasting institutions, public and private, and their relationship with other social institutions. Key political, social and ethical issues associated with broadcasting are canvassed, such as the ownership and control of radio and television stations, the regulatory climate, accountability in programming, relationships to audiences, and journalistic practices and ethics. Vexed issues, such as media freedom and reform, public participation in ownership and programming, regulatory changes in broadcasting, and professional journalistic standards are discussed from a range of perspectives.
