Expanded Course Description
SPAN 355 aims to expand the students’ creative capabilities in Spanish through several writing exercises. In this class students will develop their literary sensitivity as well as their critical judgment and interpretative skills. Students will also enhance their Spanish oral, written, and reading proficiency while acquiring knowledge of writing techniques and cultural background about literary schools and writers from Spain and Latin America. During class we will also read in Spanish literary pieces from indigenous and European immigrant traditions in the Americas. Our seminar will be organized in the format of literary workshops and group discussions. Students are expected to write poems and/or short stories in guided writing exercises, and we will also read literary texts relevant to each individual writing project. By the end of the term, students will have produced a collection of original work in Spanish, which they will present in a public forum for the UO and local community. Readings, writing assignments, and class discussion are conducted in Spanish.
