Focus of the Course:
This course will explore new forms of communication and new aesthetic directions,
concentrating on how current authors address new ways of understanding, of
thinking and, ultimately, new forms of becoming and being. Among the questions
we will consider are the following: How are the new technologies affecting
the perception and self-perception in Latin American literary expression?
Why and for whom do Latin American authors write? Are these new developments
affecting the construction of gender roles, class, power and self in current
literary productions? Is this producing new social relations or just new literary
forms? Of interest for Spanish Majors with a concentration in Latin America.
