Desc: | THE OTHER SPAINS. In this course, we will study a selection of contemporary written and visual representations of three crucial periods of Spain's history, when there have been the most significant differences and disagreements among its inhabitants in terms of religion, politics, culture and moral values: The medieval times, when the Muslim, Christian and the Jewish people lived together in the Iberian Peninsula; the nineteenth century, with its political disagreements between liberals and conservatives; and the twentieth century, with its "second Republic," the Spanish Civil War, its sequels during the Francoist years, and the transition to democracy after Franco's death in 1975. As we analyze and discuss these representations, we will try to understand how these historical periods have contributed to give shape to twentieth-century Spain. |
