HISP 404 - Autonomy and Economics in Literature of the AméricasFC ARHU CD WADV
4 credits
Self-determination has been the paradoxical crux of American national identities since the continent was named for an Italian financier. We will use autonomy and economy as a conceptual tension framing literatures struggle with inequality and freedom, which in turn invigorates movements that declare capitalism incompatible with democracy. Authors may include Arlt, Echeverr, Deleuze, Dreiser, Hughes, Kant, Leguin, Marcos, Negri, Pauls, Piketty, Sitrin, Spinoza, Steinbeck, Stiglitz, Virno.
Prerequisites & Notes: One advanced course in the study of literature.
This course is cross-listed with CMPL 404
