HISP 309 - Survey of Spanish Literature I: Imperial Spectacles


Semester Offered: First Semester
Credits (Range): 3 hours
Attribute: 3HU, CD

The Spanish literary canon has been traditionally shaped by the desire to influence and manipulate its audience into dogmatic religious, political and social ideas. This course will analyze the intentions and effects of particularly literary works from before 1800—both canonic and less well-known—in their historical and political context. Texts studied include narrative, poetry, essay and Spanish and Latin American chronicles by Cervantes, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Lope de Vega, María de Zayas, and others. Taught in Spanish. Enrollment Limit: 20.
Instructor: V. Pérez de León
