SPAN 163 SC - Pais Vasco or Euskal Herria: Una intro


Basque people (euskaldunak) are considered one of the oldest indigenous ethnic groups of Europe; its language is a mystery. Most Basques live in seven historical territories and speak Spanish, French, and Euskara. The aim of this course is to introduce students to Basque culture from a historical, linguistic, anthropological, political and artistic perspective. As one of the most unique regions of Spain, it provides a fertile ground to analyze decentralized forms of knowledge. We will tackle issues such a nation/nation state, ethnicity and identity politics; sexualities and gender, tradition and modernity. The course will also examine Basques in the American diaspora.

Course Credit: 1.0
Offered: Every year
