DESCRIPTION
Students in this course will learn to understand the political and literary history of Latin American rebellion and revolution arcing through Bolano's The Savage Detectives, from Cuba to Mexico, Uruguay and Argentina, Chile, Nicaragua and Peru. They will also learn, within this historical context, the enormity of the task of "reconciliation" before Latin America in general and (in Bolano's conception) Latin American writers in particular. Finally, they will be able to apply this understanding in thoughtful analysis of Bolano's novel to the independent investigation of a particular revolutionary (and/or literary) tradition in Latin America.
