SPAN 103. Horacio Castellanos Moya: Centroamérica en las venas
This seminar focuses on the literary work of Horacio Castellanos Moya, one of Central America’s most prominent and controversial writers, whose literature has become internationally recognized. His narrative is often piercingly sarcastic, crude and raunchy and always unsettling. By studying Castellanos Moya’s narratives and self-destructive characters, the course will explore the social disintegration and legacy of violence left by the decades of civil wars in Central America. The course will examine his novels and essays, and will incorporate recent literary criticism and theoretical approaches on trauma, affect, and violence.
Eligible for LASC credit.
