HISP 111B 1 Introduction to Latin American Literature and Culture
[ fl hum nw ]
See Course Catalog for prerequisites.
Topic for spring 2018: The Arts, Mass Media, and Community in Latin America. This course introduces students to Latin American cultural history, from the colonization of the New World to the contemporary present, through a wide range of artworks, literary works, and screen media. Emphasis is placed on how the arts in Latin America have used various media technologies (print and native media, radio, cinematography, television, digital media and virtual reality) to push boundaries, challenge authority, reflect on the challenges of an uneven modernity, and build both real and imagined communities.
