Jorge Luis Borges is a major 20th century Latin American writer. This class concentrates on three of his short stories: “El sur,” “Emma Zunz,” and “El etnografo.” The stories provide insights about the meaning of time, death and reality, and are read in original Spanish (intermediate to advanced skill level). Class consists of discussion. Discussion questions are provided in advance of class. Objective: improved Spanish competency/love of Borges.
