Lecture in Youtube

31 Março 2020, 08:00 • Isabel Maria da Cunha Rosa Fernandes

Dear Students,

I hope you are all well.
After finishing and sending me your reading assignment on Raymond William’s text, “Literature,” I suggest you watch a lecture by Professor M. H. Abrams (1912-2915) on “The Fourth Dimension of a Poem.”
It is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEbtuZYNbyc
The lecture was recorded in 2012, when Professor Abrams was 100 years old. He is considered one of the greatest American scholars and is the author of several important books
I hope you’ll profit from it.
You may also like to know that after Easter I will be using the Zoom App to teach for the remaining of the semester. I hope this will be feasible and accessible for all of you. Right now I am in the process of learning how to manage it… Classes will take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8.00 am, as usual.
From today, you will be able to find in the site of the Project in Medical Humanities of our school ( http://humanidadesmedicas.letras.ulisboa.pt/ ), “The Narrative Medicine COVID-19 kit.” Though created with health professionals in mind, it may be of use to you. You may have a look at it here (even though the English version is still under construction and to be released at a later date): http://humanidadesmedicas.letras.ulisboa.pt/pt/kit-hm-covid-19/
Be brave in mind and body and take care!
