Catalan anyone?

[JosepLaforet]

Hello!  Out of curiosity, has anyone ever studied Catalan post-grad - even just a class for romance language speakers?  I'm looking into a few different schools (quite literally only a few) and was wondering if anyone out there had any insight.

 

Gràcies!

Hay algunas escuelas que enseñan català. Se que Notre Dame ha comenzado a ofrecer cursos en su M.A. Pero quizá quieras apuntar a una escuela que tenga un programa de verano en Catalunya para eso (esto es más probable).

University of Massachussets at Amherst has a Catalan program

Josep, have you already submitted your applications for the season?

[JosepLaforet]

I have - just ended up applying to one this time around.  Because of the way my schedule worked out, most of my substantial writing occurs this semester.  The samples I submitted were not really up to my standard and not really related to my main focus area.  I'm writing an undergraduate thesis right now on application of psychosocial theory to Carmen Laforet's Nada and another of traces of the picaresque in the posguerra novel.  If i'm not accepted this round, I'll send one of those next year.

 

Right now, I'm waiting on noticies from IU-Bloomington

Good luck JosephLaforet! It seems quite a few of us on here are applying to UI-Bloomington.

Gràcies!  Espero tenir l'oportunitat d'estudiar allà - és de les poques universitats per aquí als EUA que ofereix un programa de postgrau de català.  Tots sabrem molt aviat!
