Daily|10:30-11:20 am|5 cr|Kennedy
Spanish 121, 122 and 123 follows
an alternative method. It is an approach in which students learn the
foreign language in its cultural context. Through the use of video
as the central medium of presentation, students experience the language
as it occurs in real-life situations and settings throughout the Spanish-speaking
world. This communicative method follows the premise that the four
language skills are most effectively developed when acquired in a
specific order: listening, speaking, reading, writing. Students who
register for this course should expect a more rigorous, grammar-intensive
approach. It is intended for highly motivated BEGINNING students who
have a particular interest in learning Spanish grammar and who plan
to commit a great deal of time to its study. From the first day, the
class is conducted entirely in Spanish as a conversation in which
all students are expected to actively participate. Students will discuss
the characters and the events as they unfold in the telenovela of
the video series as the context through which they learn and practice
the grammar and vocabulary of the chapter. Students who are taking
Spanish with no other interest than to fulfill the foreign language
distribution requirement should not take this class. They would be
better served by following another course of study. Many students
who have taken this course because they are highly motivated to learn
Spanish have reported that they are amazed how well they can understand,
speak, write and read Spanish by the time the course is over.
Course conducted in Spanish
This first year Spanish
series will be taught sequentially during the academic year as SPAN
121 in Autumn, SPAN 122 in Winter, and SPAN 123 in Spring. In Summer
it is offered as a 15-credit course-SPAN 134.

Este curso examinará la
producción del romanticismo, el realismo, el naturalismo, y
el modernismo en Latinoamérica y España a lo largo del
siglo diecinueve y hasta principios del siglo veinte. En vez de formular
lo transatlántico a través del planteamiento tradicional
de un mapa de influencias entre Europa y el Nuevo Mundo, nos enfocaremos
en una comparación de soluciones locales a los dilemas poscoloniales.
Nos enfrentaremos a cuestiones como la invención de la nación
en Latinoamérica, y la re-invención de “lo español”
después de la caida del imperio, o a los distintos y problematicos
planteamientos de temas como la otredad o el feminismo en la España
e Hispanoamérica del siglo diecinueve.
