3) reach enhanced awareness of the linguistic features of their language of specialisation, both from a diachronic and a synchronic perspective;
4) reach an adequate knowledge of the most advanced methodologies for the analysis of literary texts;
5) handle confidently the theoretical-practical tools for teaching and for translation.

Teatro español: dramaturgia y representación/ Spanish theatre: dramaturgy and performance is one of the characterising modules of the programme. It aims at consolidating written and spoken skills and autonomous critical analysis of theatrical works belonging to different periods and framed within their linguistic, literary, and dramaturgical dimensions. Special emphasis will be given to the relation between the theatrical text and its staging realisation (also using audio-visual materials) and to the translation processes to which a theatrical text is submitted (e.g. literary translation and subtitling). The unit also aims at deepening practical and theoretical competences on literature teaching methodologies, with a special focus on the use of the theatrical text in teaching practices.
At the end of the module, students will be able to: analyse, translate and realise stage or screen adaptations of a text; evaluate the interrelations between literary language and languages belonging to other artistic forms; translate theatrical texts; communicate in oral and written form about the module contents (advanced level); apply theoretical and methodological tools to the context of literature teaching.

Requirements: Students must have already taken La literatura española en el espejo del tiempo/ Spanish literature in the mirror of time.
