SPLT 062 - (LT): Magic and Witchcraft in Spanish Literature

Semester Hours: 3
This course analyzes literary works originally written in Spanish in which there is a clear reference to sorcery, demonic possessions and any kind of spiritual heterodoxy that has a direct influence on human behavior. On the one hand, we will focus on how the “Devil” is asked for help in the name of love or simply to achieve one’s goals and how sometimes the “Devil” takes the initiative. On the other hand, unorthodox ways to achieve divine contact between the human soul and God will be analyzed. This is a fascinating course that offers new ways to approach the study of literature. The course will be taught in English and the readings will also be in English.
