Meets with CWL 471: International Literary Relations, CRN 63415 Instructor: Eric Calderwood TOPIC: "Spain and the Modern Arba World: 1492-2014" Spain has long been an evocative site for literary and artistic reflections on the past, present, and future of the Arab world. This course will explore the diverse and often contradictory attempts to make sense of Spain?s relationship with the Arab world and with its own Islamic past. We will start in 1492, with the fall of the last Muslim kingdom in medieval Iberia, and we will work our way up to the present day, when Spain has become a major destination for immigrants from the Arab-Islamic world. We will study a broad array of Spanish and Arabic sources in English translation, including literary texts, narrative and documentary films, historiography, journalism, and music.
