Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course, taught in Spanish, introduces students to short fiction from Latin America. We will study a variety of authors from many different countries, ranging in time from the early twentieth century to the twenty-first century. We will situate readings in their social, historical, and genre contexts. Students will learn about point of view, voice, and narrative technique and apply their knowledge to creative writing exercises in Spanish. As a final project, students will create their own short story in Spanish in the style of a Latin American writer they admire.
