The emphasis is on great figures such as Hugo, Zola, Balzac, and Nerval, along with important schools and movements: Romanticism, Realism, Naturalism. Students will learn to appreciate the influence of these movements outside of France, and will also become familiar with some social and intellectual background within France: the Revolution, progressivism, positivism.
