DESCRIPTION
This course offers an introduction/general survey to Spanish Literature. We will cover a representative selection of novels, poems, short stories and plays by major authors. Supplementary reading will be suggested or provided when appropriate. In the analysis of the works we shall pay attention not just to the literary techniques employed by their authors corresponding with the literary fashions of their time but we shall also explore the social, historical, ideological, religious, philosophical, aesthetical and political backgrounds that contributed to their creation. Class discussion is centered on representative Works, Time-periods, and any other literary sources from each period, all of it related to matters of style, techniques as well as sociocultural contexts.
