MAT 882 - Literature of the Conquest of Latin America3 credits
A study of the artistic, intellectual, and social aspects that distinguish the various Spanish-speaking groups in the United States. The course surveys Spain’s cultural presence in North America from the early 16th century to the mid-19th century through the works of early explorers, oral narratives, and the role of the missions. In addition, the concept of traditional and contemporary borderlands and its geographic and psycholinguistic implications are explored to analyze issues of marginality, bilingual-bicultural issues, and nationalism. Primary emphasis is on contemporary authors and trends. Same as: SPAN+136 Spring semester.
