OB2_K09

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.

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 :

GOTTLIEB Roger S., Religion and Ecology - What Is the Connection and Why Does It Matter?, w: Roger S. GOTTLIEB, The Oxford Handbook of Religion and Ecology, Oxford - New York: Oxford University Press 2006, s. 3-21.
