Decadent Interiorities: Modernismo in Spanish

Catalog description

Towards the end of the nineteenth century, the concept of interior realm (reino interior) refers to a series of writings and creative practices that name ways in which the modern subject confronts this "new" sensorial and affective territory of interiority. We will study private zones of introspection and imagination through different historical media: poetry, short story, letters, visual arts, and magazines. Spanish proficiency is required.
