Hispanic Studies [322] - Gender and Writing in Spain

Institution:

Hamilton College

Subject:

Description:

The course will focus on the analysis of literary texts written by contemporary Spanish women writers, mostly from the 60's to the present. Some attention will be paid to older texts, which are part of the recuperation of historic memory, and to religious-cultural icons to which women writers respond. Movies, theoretical and legal texts and documentaries will also be an important part of the course. The course will analyze the way these texts question rigid gender structures as they confront, dissolve, re-write a constructed androcentric reality and create a more welcoming society for all. Prerequisite, Two 200-level courses in Hispanic studies above 200 or 201 including 210 or 211 or consent of instructor. Taught in Spanish.
