This course explores multicultural identity of the Hispanic Caribbean through a study of literature and cultures from Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Caribbean Hispanics in mainland Latin America, and beyond. The history of the Caribbean is remarkable because of the confluence of diverse groups and immigrants who formed the Caribbean's multifaceted cultures. Beginning with indigenous civilizations and tracing the effects of colonialism through the era of independence to the present day, this course looks at Caribbean history as background for understanding contemporary Caribbean literature and culture from a post-colonial perspective. Students will read works of literature and analyze music and visual culture, participate in class discussions, and engage in research.
