Based on close readings, group discussions, and frequent writing opportunities, this class introduces first-year students to a particular cultural studies topic about the Hispanic world, such as: indigenous cultures of Latin America; the cultural history of Madrid; US/Mexico border theory; Basque cultural identity. Students develop methods of scholarly research and strengthen analytical writing skills, as they explore Spanish, Latin American or Latinx cultural production through written media, film, art, social practices, performance or material culture.
