課程目標
這門課的主要目標為:(一)介紹語藝批評發展歷史與語藝批評方法;
(二)發展學生以語藝觀點觀察社會論述的能力;(三)刺激學生思考語藝批 評實踐過程中方法論的關鍵爭議。為達到上述目標,本課程除了介紹常用的批 評方法外,以增加個案討論與學生實作練習的方式,讓學生能有實際應用的經 驗與能力。此外,方法論的討論則是希望學生能跳脫目前實作的經驗限制,探 索未來語藝批評的豐富可能性。

學生在這門課必須完成兩個語藝批評的報告。每一個報告有其進階性的自 我要求與期許:
第一個報告:整體結構貫串,問題與方法契合。
第二個報告:除前次報告的基本要求外,加強舉證與論證能力、詮釋與
延伸討論
除了兩個報告外,學生將負責部份導讀與閱讀大綱的工作。其份量視修課 人數調整。以下是評分方式;
導讀與大綱10%
報告一40%
報告二50%
