  • HISP 312: Foundational Tropes/Contested Tropes:"The Gaucho"

    0.00 Credits
    Trinity College

    Several debates, themes, images or tropes seem to constitute a symbolic and discursive core of Latin American cultural history: "The Savage," "The Gaucho," "The Mestizo," "The Captive," "The Matriach," "The Landowner," "The Enightened Tyrant," "The Developer," and "The Immigrant." These concepts are, in turn, connected to notions of Europeanness, whiteness, civilization, capitalist development, and progress. Through the examination of a series of literary texts and documents from different historical periods and literary and ideological movements, this course explores the origin and historical evolution of these recurring and enduring themes and metaphors.

  • HISP 313: The Vision of America and its Inhabitants Through the Renaissance and the Golden Age

    0.00 Credits
    Trinity College

    The course concentrates on the contradictory worldviews of Amerindians' voices/writings and the specific projections generated by explorers, travelers, historians, soldiers, friars, and conquistadors as they sought to explain the "otherness" of this new land. It also will focus on the shift of the official representation of America and the Amerindian provoked by the complexities brought on by the emergence of the modern state. We will also study, through the work of the leading playwrights of the Golden Age, the significance of these profound changes, their implications for the Spanish policies toward the Amerindians, and Spain's response to this non-European worl 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

    0.00 Credits
    Trinity College
