DI MATTEO ANGELA
(syllabus)
Since the times of the Conquest and Colonization, the theme of the encounter with the Other has determined a series of representations of the new continent that have fixed images and stereotypes. The theme, which has become canonical in contemporary Hispanic-American literature, will be analyzed through selected passages from 15th and 16th century chronicles and through 20th and 21st century fiction.
