About this course

Course is taught in Spanish and fulfills the Post-1900 Latin American requirement for Hispanic Studies majorsWhat is the experience of the migrant journey when talking about children, women, or families? How does this transit and arrival into a territory impact people? This course will explore canonical and emerging works of literature, cinema, and the arts to listen to the voices and know the faces of migrants from the Hispanic world. This exploration will allow us to observe historical moments of displacement and the current humanitarian crisis that migration represents. To understand this phenomenon, this course will map the inter- and trans-continental cartographies and trajectories involved and focus on the affected subjects' individual experiences.
