Sub-courses 2a or 2b are studied at the University of Copenhagen, while sub-courses 1, 3 and 4 are studied at Lund University. Only one of sub-courses 2a and 2b is studied. The specific course chosen will depend on which of the courses is offered at the time of study by the University of Copenhagen at the time. The course places the Danish language within a broader framework and the language is studied from historical, literary, cultural and social perspectives. The focus of the course is on modern times—from the 18th century onwards with an emphasis placed on the 20th century. The key aspects of the development of modern Denmark are studied from the birth of the constitution in 1849 to the current democratic and welfare state. In addition, the construction of and discussion on the Danish national identity are problematised. The course also introduces scholarly theory in general and linguistic and literary theory in particular. Sub-course 2a: The relationship between speech and writing is studied and placed in relation to the history of the language. An analysis of audio and video recordings of modern Danish is made. Sub-course 2b: Texts are described and analysed stylistically, grammatically and syntactically. Morphological and syntactical variations in modern Danish are also studied. Finally, key Danish literary works are read and analysed from a literary historical perspective and basic literary text analysis is discussed.
