LANG 292 - Languages, Cultures, Differences

3 Credit(s)

This course examines the phenomena created by the intermingling of Hispanic/Latino and American cultures, and the intersection of English and Spanish. Students will scrutinize films, videos, magazines and also canonical pieces of literature to understand layers of differences (gender, race, ethnicity, and others) operating between and within Hispanic and American cultures. Globalization has forced us to understand cultural differences as a significant quest of ethical value for contemporary society. Participation is expected and different perspectives are emphasized. Fall and Spring.
