COURSE CONTENT
Outcomes and Objectives:
At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:
Untitled document
The aim of this course is to
1. Present a chronological survey of Spanish literature in English
translation so that students having little or no knowledge of Spanish
can appreciate Spanish literature masterpieces.
2. Primarily focus on complete works by major Spanish authors who are
universally known and whose writings still have considerable
relevance to 20th century readers.
3. The main focus of the course will be on the works themselves as
literature, and lectures will aim at helping students to understand
and appreciate works read.
4. Students will be encouraged to ask questions and to share and critique
each other's ideas in class discussions.
5. The instructor will try to show what is specifically "Spanish" (as
well as universal) in Spanish literature and to foster a sensitivity
to ideas and values within a culture that is in many respects very
different from their own.
Topics and Scope
Untitled document
1. The course will provide an introduction to each historical period
so that students can understand the context within which the various
authors wrote.
2. Students will be made familiar with the main social, political and
artistic trends of each period, and these will be related to such
questions as the author's motivations in writing and the content and
style of his or her works.
3. Significant biographical details will be provided for each author.
Assignments:
Untitled document
1. There will be 3 tests (one on each of the first three chapters) as
well as a final (cumulative, but with an emphasis on the final time
period).
2. The tests will contain an initial factual component (multiple choice,
quote identification, brief informational questions).
3. This will test the student's knowledge of historical background,
author's biographies, and the contents of works read.
4. A second part will consist of several essay questions which will
allow students to exercise their critical abilities by analyzing
and interpreting aspects of works that have been read.
