Short description:

The main purpose of this lecture is to prepare students for the use of professional literature in English and for the preparation of the correct substantive and stylistically translation into Polish.

Full description:

This lecture is designed to help students learn how to use specialist English literature, to familiarize themselves with the basic principles of understanding and interpretation of the text, and to broaden their vocabulary in the areas of nature and religion.

These skills will allow students to access the latest literature and find it helpful when writing a master's thesis. In addition, they will help prepare them for participation in foreign student exchange programs and to participate in international scientific conferences.

The lecture will be conducted on texts representative of the subject matter, which were not published in the Polish language version.

During the course the following works will be translated :

DUBOS Rene, Franciscan Conservation versus Benedictine Stewardship, w: David SPRING and Eileen SPRING (red.), Ecology and Religion in History, New York: Harper & Row 1974, s. 56-59.

HARRISON Peter, Having dominion: Genesis and the mastery of nature, w: Robert James BERRY (red.), Environmental Stewardship, London - New York: T&T Clark 2006, s. 17-31.
