Course Description
This course is a linguistic introduction into three aspects of the structure of Spanish: the sound structure (phonology), the internal structure of words (morphology), and the internal structure of sentences (syntax) in relation to its meaning (semantics). These three aspects are studied in the light of modern linguistic theory. Students get insight in how universal aspects of human language surface in Spanish, and how Spanish linguistic structure differs from the structure of other languages. After completing the course, students have: knowledge and analytical skills concerning the phonological, morphological and syntactic characteristics of Spanish; knowledge and analytical skills in order to carry out an internet search targeting certain morphological or syntactic phenomena in Spanish; academic skills to write a short research report; academic skills to include references in accordance with the guidelines of the APA, by making use of RefWorks; initial insight in the Spanish language needed for any professional use of Spanish, including teaching and translation.

Course Description
This course undertakes a panoramic study of selected works of Latin American prose from pre-Colombian times through the twentieth century, reviewing Latin-American literature from modernism, avant-garde, revolutionary literature, to the literature of the boom (narrativa y cuentos), postmodernism and current trends. It looks at the origin of these movements and their various characteristics. Specifically it will cover the novel, short story, and essay and will provide students a broad, general knowledge of the major literary trends in Latin America as well as a selection of representative authors and their works. While engaging the specific issues each of the selected authors underscore, we actively explore their place within wider global contexts and the parallels that can be established. The course is conducted as a seminar and is expected to further develop students' presentation skills as well as critical and analytical ability. Text: Chang-Rodrigues, Raquel & Malva E.
