Title | Reading Spain in Federico Garcia Lorca's Life and Works |
Description | This course focuses on one of the most renowned and influential Spanish poets of the 20th century--Federico Garcia Lorca. We will examine Lorca's vast corpus of poems and plays to see how they combine experimental aesthetics and popular traditions. We will also study the readings and re-readings of "Lorca" as both an author and a mythical figure, standing for freedom, the defeated Spanish Republic, the historical avant-garde poetry, and gender politics. |
Prerequisites | A 200-level Spanish course or instructor's permission. Preferably, a second 200 or 300-level course. |
Professor | German Labrador Mendez |
