CAST 330 - Chicana/o and Native American Literature and Culture
4HU, CD
Second Semester. This course will introduce students to major literary works by Native American and Chicana/o writers. We will look at how deterritorialization, linguistic alienation and forced assimilation contribute to identity formation and cultural representation within these works. Our readings of fiction, poetry, autobiography and oral histories will focus on the categories of race, gender, class and nationality. We will also explore issues of social justice and discuss how these communities are writing themselves back into history.
