    The course explores the themes of cultural and national identity in major novels, collections of short stories, television programs, film and non-fiction created by Latino writers of the United States. The class will attempt to answer the following questions: What are the characteristics of the Latino text? Does the fact that a writer or director heralds from Hispanic descent necessarily render her or his fictional product a Latino text? Is there really one, sole Latino community represented in the texts, or rather, do we encounter a plurality of definitions of community? How does each text’s structure reflect the themes of transculturation and immigration? How does each writer and director use language(s)? Why are most of these texts written or performed primarily in English? Why do they narrate the experiences of young adolescents who emigrate to the United States? How has the existing body of critical studies on these texts affected the production of a Latino canon? Prerequisite: LTE 140 or equivalent. Guerrero-Watanabe/ Three credits
