SPA 330 LIT IMAG & AFR DIAS IN LAT AM

Through its crucial role in the formation and transformation of Latin American human cultures over the past five centuries, the African diaspora has been the inspiration for an impressive canon of unique literary expressions. This course examines those expressions and focuses on religious practices, artistic manifestations, and sociohistorical processes portrayed in works from such countries as Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. Readings in social history, philosophy, psychology, and poetics provide the theoretical framework for analysis.
