Institution:

Seton Hall University

Subject:

Description:

This study abroad program in the Caribbean and the Americas will provide students with a unique opportunity to not only familiarize themselves with the literature of the multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-racial Caribbean but it will also allow them to experience first-hand Caribbean and the Americas' culture and people, and provide a snapshot of the region's historical development. Literary (textual) experience will converge with on-site (lived) experience for an interesting and unique mix. Guest lectures by local specialists, in conjunction with visits to historical sites, such as museums and art galleries, will complement the program. For a sampling of the social and cultural make-up of the society, on site research into Caribbean popular culture will be integrated into readings and discussions. (Formerly AFAM 3320) 3 credits
