HISP-S331 The Hispanic World I (3 credits)
Prerequisite: S310 or equivalent.

Credit given for only two of the following:  S331, S332, S333

This course is an introduction to the reading of literature in
Spanish, with a focus on Hispanic American poetry, drama, novel and
film.  In this course, we will work on becoming more imaginative
readers of literature by developing sensitivity to textual detail.
Students taking this course will practice the interpretive skills
they will need in upper level literature courses, as they work on
developing greater intimacy with language and with Spanish.  The
readings in the course will include poems by Jorge Luis Borges and
César Vallejo, and short fiction and novellas by María Luisa Bombal,
Rosario Ferré, Julio Cortázar, Felisberto Hernández and José Antonio
Ponte.  Course work includes two exams and three short essays, among
other assignments.
