HISP 301 - An Introduction to Cervantes' Literary Industry

Institution:

Trinity College

Subject:

Description:

An analysis and interpretation of the complete text of Don Quijote de la Mancha, with attention given to Cervantes' use of irony (burla) as the keystone of his artifice. Keeping in mind the historical and cultural background of the text, we will examine how Cervantes' writings (El Quijote, Entremeses, Novelas Ejemplare) hinge on a parodic game that entails a process of encoding and decoding, one which has a demystifying power upon reality. Prerequisite: A grade of C- or better in HISP270 and one of the following: HISP261 or HISP262 or HISP263 or HISP264; or Permission of the Instructor. 1.00 units, Lecture
