SPAN043.05: Drawn to Resist: The Latin American Comics

Last offered 20W

Cartoons and comics have played important roles in the political and social processes of Latin America for more than a century. This course is designed as a workshop, where students will approach the world of comics from a historical and practical point of view. It will cover the most significant periods of Latin American comics tradition. By the end of the class, the student will be able to deploy a range of different methods for analyzing comics, including formal technique, genre, authorship, and intertextual analysis. The professor will also guide the students into a unique experience of personal exploration on how comics tell stories through words and images (no drawing skills are required). Works by Caloi, Fontanarrosa, Maitena, Montt, Oesterheld, Quino, Rius, etc.
