SPAN 180 PO - Spanish Literature 1898-1936


CrsNo SPAN180 PO


When Offered: Fall 2011.

Instructor(s): M. Coffey

A Time of Crisis: Spanish Literature from 1898 to 1936. Fueled by the loss of empire in 1898, Spanish society began an anguished process of national introspection, one that led eventually to the Spanish Civil War in 1936. For writers this process led to notable innovations in fiction. Works by male writers often focused on effects of the past on the present and attempted to illustrate philosophical problems in narrative. For women writers, on the other hand, used popular literary forms to reexamine domestic issues and women’s place within the country’s new political reality. Prerequisite:SPAN 101 PO , or equivalent.
