Young Writers, Neo-Realism, and Urban Culture in the Hispanic World
Course Description
Examines representative cultural production from a wave of young writers, filmmakers, and artists who have opted for a neo-realist aesthetic to represent current national and transnational realities. Focusing on movements like the Generation X group in Spain and the McOndo and Crack groups in Latin America, students are invited to explore the connections between this new production and urban identities. Special attention is paid to the role of U.S. influences, audio-visual media, violence, disease, emerging marginalities, and rearticulated sexualities as elements of this new urban reality.
