SPA 359 XXI Contemporary Latin American/Latino Short Stories
Mapping narrative geographies, interfacing realities & obsessive readers
Course description:
This FLEX upper level course is designated to engage the students in a complex process of critical thinking and transcultural interpretation as we explore a relevant body of XXI Latin Amerian/Latino short narratives. Concentrating on analytical, argumentative, and creative reading practices, we will identify relevant daring, audacious, and unstable strategies of postmodern short narratives, flash fiction, sudden fiction, micro fictions, and hint fiction.
