AREA 2: Modern Hispanic Voices Western societies and literary traditions use parody to measure, shape, and change cultural values and identities.

Texts examined include fiction and non-fiction, cinematic, and other multimedia arts. Alternate years. Prerequisite(s): HISP 307  or consent of the instructor. (4 Credits)
