SPAN 414 Mestizaje and Cultural Contact in Hispanic Societies

This is a pan-Hispanic survey in which we will study societal and artistic responses to cultural contact and separation via migration, war, travel, and slavery. We will examine how writers and artists have imagined mixed couples and families, mestizaje, or cross-cultural love as either a threat to familial and national identity, or a possible solution to racial and cultural tensions. Conducted in Spanish.
