Course Description
This course examines historical, political, social, cultural, literary and artistic development in Spain from 1931-2000. For the critical periods that includes the Second Republic, Spanish Civil War, Francoism, and final transition to democracy, the course focuses on such themes as ideology of National Catholicism; the roles of women and children; and censorship while examining films, texts, graphics, and pro- and anti-Franco songs. Trips to local cultural monuments (Picasso's GUERNICA, ''Valley of the Fallen,'' Franco's tomb, etc.) are incorporated into the course. Special attention is given to Madrid and the Movida Madrileña--the explosion of art, counter-culture, and creativity that ended the repression. NOTE: Course is the same as HIST104, but taught in English.
