SPAN 325 - Young Writers, Neo-Realism & Urban Culture in the Hispanic World

4 credits
This course examines representative cultural production from a wave of young writers, filmmakers, and artists who have opted for a neo-realist aesthetic to represent current national and transnational realities. Focusing on movements like the Generacion X group in Spain and the McOndo and Crack groups in Latin America, the course explores the connections between this new production and urban identities. We pay special attention to the role of U.S. influences, audio-visual media, violence, disease, emerging marginalities, and rearticulated sexualities as elements of this new urban reality. Prerequisite: SPAN 310  or special permission. CLA-Diversity International, CLA-Foreign Language, CLA-Writing Intensive
