Spanish-American Civilizations I (Pre-Columbian - 1821)

Catalog description

This course explores Spanish-American civilizations from pre-Columbian times to1821. Emphasis is given to the critical analysis of cultural practices and cultural production in the region, and to the causes that led Spanish-American nations to gain their political independence from Spain. While challenging the notion that America was discovered, and while questioning the right of the Spanish Crown to rule in Spanish America, a holistic assessment of the miscegenation and transculturation processes that shaped Spanish America is made throughout this course.
