(LAIS core course) This course will explore Spanish literature through a variety of lenses that will range from the essays of Benito Jerónimo Feijoo to the 19th century realist narrative of Leopoldo Alas Clarín and Benito Pérez Galdós, to the twentieth century chronicles, in verse and prose, of the series of political and social spasms that culminate in the Spanish Civil War. The course will begin at the end of the 18th century, when Spain’s intellectuals are preaching gradual reforms (a recipe that will soon be destroyed by Napoleon’s invasion and the popular resistance it spawns) and continue through the Spanish Civil War and its aftermath. Special attention will be paid to the ‘generations’ of 1898 and 1927 and the links between poetic and novelistic expression and the philosophical debates raging behind the scenes. The basic question of self-identity’what does it mean to be Spanish? (vis à vis Europe, the Americas, and the rest of Western Culture)’will serve as a point of departure. Texts will be read in the original Spanish with a particular emphasis on developing close textual readings. Class discussion and written assignments will also be in Spanish.
