Aims

This course uses the concepts and the methods of the narratology and sociology of the culture to analyze the cultural and media productions. It is thus interested in the questions of writing of cultural works, taken in a very broad way (cinema, television, alive performing arts, exposures, festivals), in their production as in their reception. It must also make it possible to pose a critical glance on the general theories of the narration, the cultural studies and the communication
