Another goal is to show listeners the procedure for analyzing specific literary texts (lyrics, epics, drama) using short model texts. An important role in this context is played by the tasks which the students work out at home according to the teacher's instructions and which follow on from the model analyzes carried out in the face-to-face form of teaching.
