(syllabus)
The Spanish novel of the second half of the 20th century
The course intends to present the main Spanish literary phenomena of 20th century, starting from the civil war until the years of the democratic transition, through the reading and commentary of some particularly significant novels, characterized by different ideological and aesthetic intentions and which can be classified in the most vast context of European narrative. The course is divided into three modules. In the first, the main Spanish literary phenomena from the end of the civil war to the present day are presented, focusing on important currents, authors and works, with broad historical and cultural notes. To this end, some particularly significant readings will be proposed, commented and analyzed taking into account the relevant context. The second module focuses on the role of the novel, which, over a long period of time, reworks historical events, social and cultural experiences from an international perspective. In the third module, the reading and commentary of some passages from the novels in the program will be proposed, particularly representative of the characteristics and changes studied in the two previous modules.
