The Biographical Space in Contemporary Culture

Subject Code: 
ILAC
Course Number: 
320
Description: 

Proposes a space of articulation between theoretical reflection and analytical practice that allows to address, from language, the symbolic plot of the constitution of subjects and identities in diverse auto/biographical registers--texts, images, representations, testimonies, narratives; the affirmation of their voices: the search for senses, memories and values. Through a trans-disciplinary perspective, prominence will be given to cultural objects, debates and issues of great relevance in the current Latin American scene.
