Ibsen en España. El caso de El hijo de Don Juan de José Echegaray.

Identity and Narrative in Doris Lessing's and J.M.Coetzee's Life Writings
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2013-05-29)The main focus of this thesis is the manner in which Doris Lessing and J.M Coetzee construct their identities in their life writings.

Instapoesiens potensiale i klasserommet
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-05-31)Lyrikken har tradisjonelt sett hatt en selvsagt plass i litteraturundervisningen og norskfaget.

Hensikten med prosjektet er å undersøke om det er mulig å påvirke elevenes forhold til lesing og skriving av lyrikk, og fremme et engasjement for lyrikken, ved å utforske ... -
Intercultural Competence and Postcolonialism in Nye’s Habibi and Gordimer’s “Loot”. Promoting democracy and citizenship through literature in the Norwegian EFL classroom

Thus, literature has become a rare and limited occurrence where students are asked to read for content and linguistical features, rather than for personal enjoyment and growth. The purpose ... -
