CNX 176 - Gender and the Sense of Nation in Latin America

Description
What is our understanding of the concept of nation? How were nations formed in Latin America? How can we compare the role of women in shaping their nations to that of men? Are there different perspectives to understand such roles? We will attempt to answer these questions by reading both theoretical essays on Latin America, on the concept of nation, and on feminism, as well as fiction written by Latin American authors. While approaching these questions, students will also practice critical reading, presentation skills, both in oral and written form, as well as active discussion.
