SPAN 304: Survey of Spanish-American Literature (Credits: 3)
Persephone Braham, Gladys Ilaregui
Representative works in all genres of Latin American literature in the 20th century.
SPAN304 is a survey of Spanish-American literature that covers from the beginning of the 20th century until the most recent literary manifestations. Reading selections (excerpts) of famous writers (including Nobel Prize winners Gabriela Mistral [1945], Pablo Neruda [1973], Gabriel García Márquez [1982], and Mario Vargas Llosa [2010]) will provide a better understanding of a wide variety of peoples, cultures, and societies of those nations that we call Latin America.
