This course studies representative Spanish texts from the Middle Ages to the present. We will read, discuss and analyze early poetry, theater and prose, observing how characters, themes and literary devices are developed and reinterpreted in changing cultural and historical contexts. This course will enable students to articulate and identify characteristics that define different genres in the literary histories of Spain and Latin America. Learning to analyze the complex structure of classic works, through close reading exercises, activities and class discussions students will hone their ability to interpret Spanish literary texts from different periods.
The class is conducted entirely in Spanish.
