Università Roma Tre

The course aims to provide the knowledge for understanding the historical and current Latin America, as well as indicate the access to the main sources of study. Although with a diachronic character, treating the main events and dealing with the key issues of Latin American history from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, most of the lessons are on the formative historical period from the cultural point of view of the continent, XVI-XVIII centuries.
