HISP 325 - Caos y Destrucción: Literatura Transatlántica de Ciencia Ficción


Semester Offered: Second Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits
Attribute: 4HU, CD

In this course, we will analyze literary works that imagine human existence in a futuristic setting. In the selected works, contemporary social and political conflicts manifest as pretexts to reflect upon and examine socio-economical and political systems that engender extreme violence and foster acute apathy within Spanish and Latin American society. Each text presents a fantastical narrative of the nation, or of events that prompt a critical interrogation of the national imaginary and identity. Taught in Spanish.

Enrollment Limit: 20
Instructor: C. Tovar

Prerequisites & Notes: Prerequisites: HISP 304 or equivalent.
