SPAN 332 - Hispanic Cultures in U.S.: Colonial Spain, Ethnics, Post-Ethnics

4 credits
This course traces Hispanic cultural presence in North America through three key historical moments. Starting with Spain’s colonial expansion and cultural imprint in North America, followed by the 1848 transition of these territories to the U.S. and resulting cultural production, the course then focuses on the migrations and political exiles of the late 19th and the 20th century, the civil rights movement, contestatory writing and the rise of ethnic literatures and films in both Spanish and English. Lastly, the course views recent works by first- or second-generation authors who write in English, but occupy a space of enunciation that is neither Hispanic nor Anglo, but fluid, hybrid, and multicultural. Taught in Spanish. Prerequisite: SPAN 310  or permission of instructor. CLA-Breadth/Humanities, CLA-Diversity US, CLA-Writing Intensive
