Bachelor in Literature

The mission of literary research in a Liberal Arts education is to confirm the semantic richness of man and the world through textual experiences. For this to be done, we must be able to critically read the world, to accept the emotional dimension, which is not necessarily explicable through logic, and to learn how to apply an integrative and intellectual approach. While the current trend is to prioritize rationality and practicality, a major mission for literary research is to appreciate and restore irrationality, which tends to be rejected as being troublesome, to understand and recognize the symbolism inherent in everyday life, and to recover this particular aspect of the world through the medium of words. These aspects of life tend to be disregarded because we are prone to be satisfied through the consumption of superficial or material things rather than the abstract.
