LITR 1150H-S01- Latin-American Poetry Live!

Students will read (in translation and, if possible, in Spanish), analyze,
discuss and write essays about living Latin American poets such as Cecilia
Vicuna (Chile), Homero Aridjis (Mexico), Maria Negroni (Argentina), Jose Kozer
(Cuba) et. al.

Particular attention will be paid to how styles, themes, and geographies might be
related. Although no Spanish is necessary, students will be encouraged
(sometimes in pairs) to try translations and to write about the process. See
general course description above for course entry procedures for all special topics
