Additional Course Info | Class Number: 2346 An examination of literary texts, cultural production and practices that address issues of coloniality, subalternity, gender violence, forced disappearance and displacement, among others. This course explores how the concept of nation has marginalised different identities (Indigenous people, women, LGBTQ+), how they have become targets of violence, and what are the connections between coloniality, racism, and forced disappearance as a current practice. However, this course highlights community practices of resilience and agency. For example: radical change from Indigeneity literary works to decolonial Indigenous movements, from genocide to testimonials and Commssion of Truth, from forced disappearance to national search brigades and caravans of mothers looking for their beloved ones. This course is conducted in Spanish. ; Prerequisite(s): SPAN 102, placement, or instructor consent; Enrollment Limit: 25 Humanities, A: Meaning, Interpretation (Texts), B: Analysis of the Social World (; Hav: HU, A, B) |
