Program

«Hay que seguir el camino de la sangre»: declinations of violence in Spanish literature between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
The course will provide the coordinates for the knowledge of the main movements, authors and genres of Spanish literature between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, focusing in particular on the declinations of violence and conflict in different historical-social contexts and distinct literary forms (novel, short story, poetry, theatre). Parallel to the presentation of the historical-cultural context (the First Republic, the crisis of '98, the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera, the Second Republic, the dictatorship of Franco) and the main literary movements (Realism, Modernism, the Avant-garde, the Generation of '27), an in-depth study of fundamental texts of the period is envisaged with particular attention to the female figure and the links with expressive forms such as painting and cinema.
The program is divided into three parts:
Part I: Prose Violence and the condition of women in turn-of-the-century literature
Emilia Pardo Bazán, “Il pizzo strappato”, 1886 (two texts chosen by the student)
Benito Pérez Galdós, “Tristana” , 1892 (full reading)
Part II: Poetry Poetic voices between Modernism and the Avant-garde at the dawn of the Civil War (an anthological choice by the teacher)
Part III: Theater Paths of eroticism and violence in Lorca's dramatic work
Federico García Lorca , “Blood Wedding”, 1933 (full reading)
It is planned to accompany the study of the texts with partial screenings of cinematographic works (“Tristana”, 1970, by Luis Buñuel; “La novia”, 2015, by Paula Ortiz).
A detailed summary of the topics covered, together with the complete calendar of teaching activities, will be indicated at the beginning of the course. The history of literature manuals and the scheduled texts will be indicated by the teacher and available at the University Libraries.

An individual reception service managed by the teacher is available throughout the academic year, at the times indicated on the web pages (without the need to make a specific appointment) and constantly updated. Students who find themselves in the position of having to make up for missed lessons will be able to contact the teacher.
