SPAN 442 - Hybrid Cultures:Latin American Intersections

Institution:

Bates College

Subject:

Description:

Latin America is a space of intersections where cultures meet and/or crash. Concepts and experiences used to define, locate, and represent these cultures to each other are continuously modified at the crossings. This course aims to take literary products (novels, essays, short stories, and films) as a cross-section of this phenomenon. Each text identifies multiple oppositions that converge violently, merely scar the individual, or craft a new prism by which we can read the dynamics taking place in these intersections. Prerequisite(s): one 200-level Spanish literature course. Not open to students who have received credit for Spanish 342. Enrollment limited to 20. C. Aburto Guzmán.
