On September 08, 2023 , higher education applicants and teachers of specialty "Journalism"of the faculty of humanities and pedagogy had a small opportunity to listen to a guest lecture by the professor Cyril Aslanov, who shared his thoughts on Ukraine's interest in French literature of the ХХ century.

 

The event participants were congratulated by Maryna Navalna - head of the department of journalism and language communication, who introduced the guest to the participants of the meeting and presented the range of his scientific interests: languages and their contacts, historical linguistics, comparative linguistics, translation history and poetics.

The participants of the meeting were surprised by the depth of the philosophical analysis of the twentieth century era, and the literary parallels that the lecturer made between French and Ukrainian literature, and the analysis of images of poetry, and the accuracy of observations of the present, and so on. During the guest online meeting, the lecturer encouraged students to discuss and discuss in the context of Ukrainian-French literary parallels: the participants of the meeting became not only listeners of the lecture, but also active participants. At the end of the meeting, everyone had the opportunity to put questions to the professor. It is important that the lecture was delivered in English, which did not interfere with fruitful communication.

After listening to a meaningful and interesting lecture, students not only took out a number of important cases that they can apply in their future profession, but also had the opportunity to think about the present: what happens to people, how we change, and what awaits us in the future?
