COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course is designed to be the equivalent of the introductory Spanish literature readings course at the college level. This is a writing and reading-intensive course that will push students to further their communicative abilities in Spanish. All course reading, writing, and discussion take place entirely in Spanish, and the curriculum centers on Spanish literature and film and engages with contemporary questions of cultural identity. The course covers diverse authors and film-makers from all corners of the Spanish-speaking world, and students will undertake at least one novel study per semester.
