CHILATST 128: Spanish through Comics (ILAC 128)
The course, an exploration of the graphic narrative medium in Spanish, is open to intermediate and advanced Spanish speakers. We'll analyze vignettes, sections, or chapters from both auteur and pop-culture series. These may include Arrugas and Lola Vendetta (Spain), Mafalda, Macanudo, Naftalina, and El eternauta (Argentina), Los once and Caminos condenados (Colombia), Nos vamos (Ecuador/ Colombia), Vivos se los llevaron (Mexico), as well as Spy vs. Spy and My Favorite Thing is Monsters (ChicanX/LatinX). Secondary sources include McCloud, Mbembe, Chute, and Aldama. The through line will be representations and instantiations of power struggles in this deceivingly naive form. Visual narratological aspects and the specificity of the medium will also be discussed at length. Language learners and everyone who wants detailed feedback on their Spanish must enroll in the cognate course
