ITAL 353 - Introduction to the Study of Italian Literature: Modern and Contemporary Italian Literature This course offers a close reading of the most representative works of outstanding Italian writers from the early 1900s to the present. The class focuses on questions of aesthetics, national identity, politics, gender, and race as well as on the special relationship between texts and society. The course will discuss both canonical works of Italian literature from Risorgimento (1860) to present as well as migration literature (from and to Italy), which continually questions the parameters of national identity.
