Title: Perform Self Contemp Span Cult
Course Section Number: SPA-313-02
Department: Spanish
Description: SPA-313-02 = GEN-300: The Performance of Self in Contemporary Spanish Culture. In this course we will study notions of self-fashioning and performance in contemporary Spain, and the ways in which social groups in the margins have historically constructed and negotiated their identities in response to official narratives of both, exclusion and appropriation. We will explore some of the theoretical and cultural debates surrounding race, ethnicity, gender and linguistic diversity in Spanish discourses of culture and nationhood; and will examine art, literary texts, films and performances that directly engage with these issues. All discussions and assignments will be in Spanish, with some readings in English. This course counts toward the Spanish major and minor, the Hispanic Studies major, the Gender Studies minor and the Language Studies requirement.
