This course aims to help students develop an understanding of Chinese/Hispanic cultures and to stimulate critical and reflective skills through comparative and intercultural analysis. The course will be organised around case studies on cinema, literature, visual art, food and popular culture across Spanish, Latin-American, Chinese and Sinophone cultures. Contextualisation and comparison are integral to all such case studies. Students will engage in discussions based on these case studies around a variety of concepts such as translation, hybridity, diaspora, migration, reception, influence and contact.
