Description
The hero, the rogue, the lover, and the dreamer are universal figures but diversely represented across cultures. In this course students will examine them, among other figures, in literary texts of Spain and Latin America as well as in other cultural products such as cinema, art, popular culture and social media. By comparing and analyzing how these archetypal figures operate in different contexts, students will gain a deeper understanding of Spanish cultures and the critical thinking skills necessary for interpreting their own cultures.
