DESCRIPTION
This course explores gender representations (ranging from feminist perspectives, gender performances or the theory and practice of female writing, to questions of sexual politics and identity, patterns of masculinity and queer visibility) within the Spanish literature, cinema and media produced during the last four decades. Besides analyzing a selection of works by some representative authors who form part of the contemporary literary panorama in Spain, students will also examine the different critical paradigms and theories within the field of gender and sexuality studies and how they are formulated within a range of cultural texts and contexts.
