Realism SPN541 FALL 2004 MONDAYS 5-8 PROF CHARNON-DEUTSCH This course examines a serious of classical realist texts written for the most part in the 1880s during the Restoration. The novels studied will be compared with various other literary forms that occupied the same cultural space as the novel (the folletÃn, the cuento festivo, women's writing, translations, the radical Naturalist novella) to show the relationship of the realist novel to the mass culture from which it attempted to distinguish itself in order to create a new reading public in Spain. Secondary sources will be provided in a packet of readings distributed in class on the first day and will include articles on the novel, popular culture and the realist project. The packet will also contain several novellas including La senda de la Gloria by María de Pilar Sinués de Marco, La novela en la tranvía by Pérez Galdós, and La prostituta by Eduardo López Bago. |
