Course Catalog Description:
In this course, we will explore specific themes or issues, from different time periods, as they are reflected in Spanish peninsular literature. The focused study of the class topic will be framed within a broader exploration of larger historical, political and cultural movements and trends. Through the study of the diverse topics explored in different classes, students will gain an appreciation for the diversity of cultures in Spain and the plurality of possible critical approaches to literary texts. Students will develop the skills and vocabulary to engage in a critical practice of textual analysis. Topics vary and are specified in the class schedule. Prereq: SPAN 3104W or SPAN 3104V or TLDO 3104W or ARGN 3104W or SPAN 3105W or TLDO 3105W or SPAN 3105V or VENZ 3512 or instructor consent.
Class Notes:
I want to examine how women of all social levels, from the enslaved to the noble, have long functioned in both the public and private sphere as essential workers, supporting not only children, spouses, and themselves, but also contributing to local and regional economies. We will look at real examples of women who served as soldiers, money-lenders, medical practitioners, artisans and more, as well as how such women were remembered and imagined in fictional and documentary sources.
