Students examine various types of literary works that reflect the experience and construction of Latino ethnic and cultural identities in the United States. By studying works of U.S. Latino/Hispanic/ Chicano literature, students explore both the particular and the universal: the struggle of writers within these ethnicities to establish voice and identity, as well as the place of these works in relation to other literatures in the United States.
