HISP 318 - Survey of Latin American Literature II: La Ciudad

3 HU, CD
Second Semester. From Darío in Buenos Aires and París, and Martí in Havana and New York, all the way to the megalopolis of Amores perros, the city has been a reality in modern Latin American literature. We will also study Borges and Garro’s imaginary cities (and García Márquez’s anti-city, Macondo), the alienated cityscapes of Storni, Vallejo and Neruda, Cortázar’s Paris, the Mexico City of Monsiváis and Fuentes, and future dystopias. Taught in Spanish.
