This course explores the contemporary manifestations and cultural significance of Hispanic fairy tales, examining their evolution, narrative intricacies, and socio-political implications across different Spanish-speaking communities. Using an interdisciplinary lens that engages literary studies, cultural studies, anthropology, and sociology, students will explore how fairy tales have been reimagined, deconstructed, and reconstructed in contemporary literature, film, popular culture, and social discourse. We will critically analyze a diverse range of novels, short stories, films, and paratexts from different Hispanic cultures, including but not limited to Spain, Latin America, and the Caribbean, with a focus on the ways in which contemporary Hispanic authors and artists have appropriated, transformed, and subverted traditional fairy tale motifs, themes, and archetypes to address issues such as gender roles, identity, power dynamics, and social justice.
