Spanish 159. Literatura, cultura y conflictos armados en Latinoamérica (4 units)
Leonardo de Oliviera Silva
MTW 10:00-11:40A
2102 Gallagher Hall
CRN 53484
Course Description: How does war reshape literature and culture, and how do literature and culture affect our perception of armed conflicts? In this class, students will come into contact with written works and visual discourses associated with some of the most critical armed conflicts in the Spanish-speaking world (Colonial Wars in Latin America; War of the Triple Alliance; Spanish Civil War). We will analyze the adaptation of literary and discursive forms in the attempt of depicting the Latin-American context as well as configure the memory of these conflicts. By doing so, students will become better capable of thinking critically about war, besides understanding some of the common characteristics of warfare and its representation.
May be repeated for credit up to one time when topic or subject differs; students may take any Spanish 159 course two times total in combination.
Prerequisite: Any one of the following Spanish courses, SPA 100/100S, SPA 141/141S, or SPA 170/170S.
