The course focuses on women’s literature, theory, and cultural production in contemporary Spain. It discusses core topics, issues, conflicts and potential resolutions that shaped and pushed forward Spanish society into a "less imperfect democracy." How does literature and art affect civil rights and social change if they do at all? We will read three representative novels from 1960 to the present, as well as short stories, poems, essays, legal and religious texts, and view films to think about recognition and differences, and, in general terms, about gender.
