Applied Stylistics I

Stylistique appliquée I: Maîtrise du discours écrit et du texte / Applied Stylistics I: Mastering Written Discourse and Text

This course is designed for those who need to improve the quality of their written French. Its goal is to familiarize students with major textual types (descriptive, narrative, and argumentative) and provide them with the conceptual and practical tools to produce their own texts. A review of the main grammatical difficulties involved in textual production will be complemented by practical and progressive exercises on constructing texts: crafting an outline, ensuring coherence, using transitions and connectors, etc. N.B. Initially, first-year graduate students will be placed in this course on the basis of their scores on the grammar/comprehension test and on the placement essay ; although any remaining seats will be opened to other interested students, they should normally register in 6510.
