SPA 340 - Hispanic Cultures Through Film3 Credits
Offered periodically or as needed
In this course, we will explore cinematographic modes of representing socio-political and cultural issues in Latin America and Spain. Through an analysis of Hispanic cinema (1990-2020), in conjunction with selected texts on current issues in Spanish-speaking countries, we will explore matters that include women’s roles in contemporary society, migration and exile, globalization, alterity, child abuse, experiences of war, and violence against women. Throughout the semester, there will be several writing exercises designed to enable students to improve their speaking and writing skills in Spanish while learning about Hispanic cultures and cinema.
