RLSP 202 The Generation of 1898 (Not offered 1998-99; to be offered Spring 2000)

A study of the poetry, essays, and novels of major authors of the "generación del 98" in light of the intellectual and historical context of the period. We will read works by Unamuno, Machado, Azorín, Blasco Ibáñez, Baroja, and Ortega y Gasset among others, in an effort to understand not only the artistic and intellectual concerns of each writer, but also the ways in which the works relate to one another. Conducted in Spanish. Evaluation will be based on class participation, a midsemester paper, and a final exam. Prerequisite: Spanish 105 or higher.
