DESCRIPTION
This course will examine the impact that various issues such as gender, identity, body, tradition, tourism, violence, media, and new technologies have on Spanish society and democracy. The interdisciplinary focus of this course will examine the intersection of historic and cultural materials (films, music, paintings, art exhibits, and TV) to understand the latest digital shifts in Spanish culture. Students will use an intercultural lens to compare Spanish culture and the culture of the United States. A combination of in-class lectures and discussions are complemented by out-of-classroom learning as students explore the historical and contemporary aspects of Spanish culture.
