Span 417: Spanish Phonetics, Phonology and Dialectology
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course, conducted in Spanish, explores the linguistic varieties of the 21 Spanish-speaking countries from both a historical and a synchronic perspective. The course begins with a traditional look at Spanish phonetics and phonology, with all students memorizing and using the International Phonetic Alphabet. Course readings and discussions extend beyond the descriptive and include a search for the sources of language variation within the Spanish speaking world. Particular attention is devoted to language contact and bilingualism. Students read in areas such as history, sociolinguistics, dialectology, and sociology, as well as traditional linguistic studies, in designing their projects concerning phonetics, phonology, and dialect diversification.

Span 423: Trotaconventos, Celestina & Co.: Go-Betweens, Love, Witchcraft and Other Related Subjects
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
In this course we study how the literary figure known as the "go-between" evolved in Spanish literature, from its origins in Roman literature, the Cantigas and the Exempla, to its culmination in the Libro de Buen Amor and the Tragicomedia de Calisto y Melibea, also called Celestina. We also read a selection of texts that were influenced by Celestina and examine how their authors recreated Celestina's characters and theme. Our analysis of the go-between leads us to a series of reflections about various related subjects, including the literary representation of love, the uses of language and magic as instruments of manipulation and power, and the ethical problems associated with such uses. Prerequisites: Span 307D and Span 308D and at least two 300-level literature courses taught in Spanish. Preceptorial for undergraduates only; in Spanish.

Span 424: Latin-American Literature and Theory: Reading the State, Culture and Desire
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
In this course, we pair literary and theoretical texts in order to hone a way of reading in which theory and literature are mutually informative, provocative, and inspiring. The idea of these loose groupings is not to prescribe a particular relationship between given literary and theoretical texts but rather is a way to begin negotiating the necessarily multiple relationships of theory and literature. These pairings come to seem more artificial over the course of the semester as we trace a network of relations that begins to look more and more like the Borgesian map that covered up the entire territory it described. The object of the course is, thus, not to define or prioritize a particular set of relations but rather to practice a way of reading literature theoretically and theory literarily, by which the strengths of both are allowed to come to the forefront in their complexity. Thematically, the course has several nuclei: the triangulation of State, culture, and art (Piglia/Foucault, Burman/Agamben); a psychoanalytic approach to art as desire (Lispector/Lacan/Cixous); and finally, a third nucleus about which the first two commingle completely: "post-State," proliferating desire, libidinal economies wherein the State is anachronism and failure (Arlt/Deleuze; Sorín/Virilio/Sitrin, Sassen; Bolaño/Zizek). Readings may include: Piglia, Foucault, Agamben, Arlt, Deleuze, Virilio, Sassen, Borges, Benjamin, Bolaño, Zizek, Lispector, Lacan, Cixous, as well as the films Garage Olimpo and Historias Mínimas. Prerequisites: Span 307D and Span 308D and at least two 300-level literature courses taught in Spanish. One-hour preceptorial for undergraduates only; in Spanish.

Span 425: Humanism, Magic and Rhetoric in 15th-Century Castilian Literature
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course offers a panoramic view of 15th-century Castilian literature. We study a selection of texts produced both in the Castilian court and in some centers of higher learning, especially the University of Salamanca. The secondary readings help us to better understand the cultural context of the time and deepen our knowledge of four subjects that were highly present in the minds of 15th-century authors: Humanism, Rhetoric, Love, and Magic. Because some of the texts selected for this course were written by (or have been attributed to) "converso" authors, we also examine the phenomenon of "converso" literature. Prerequisites: Span 307D and Span 308D and at least two 300-level literature courses taught in Spanish. One hour preceptorial for undergraduates only. Conducted in Spanish.
