SPN 315 - Wandering the Cities from Latin America

This is an upper level course for Spanish majors and qualified minors. The course explores the liminal genre of urban chronicles, or narratives that describe the city as perceived by wanderers who have strolled each corner, each interstice, each spot in the cities –including those spaces usually out-of-sight for the common stroller. Written chronicles, as well as movies, music, comics, and Internet sites will allow students to peek into the vast variety and cultural wealth of Latin American cities as currently experienced. This course may include a service-learning project.
