Course Description:
This course aims to critically discuss the human impact of the numerous sociopolitical exiles, ethnic cleansings, and mass-migrations that have left their mark both inside and outside of modern Spain over the last 500 years. The enduring legacies of these complex processes -intimately tied to histories of colonialism, genocide, and popular resistance to both- will be analyzed through the critical reading of primary and secondary texts, including works of fiction, visual art, photography, and first-hand testimonies of migrants, exiles, and forcibly displaced people of diverse ethnicities, social classes and political affiliations. |
