Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
"Machismo and Other Latino Stereotypes" focuses on gender, sexuality, women's studies, and men's studies in the Latino world. We will examine gender through the lens of various texts, music, film and art as broadly defined as an attempt to record reality in the Latino community in the USA. For us, the term Machismo will be a central concept in discussions of the roles, status, rights, responsibilities, influences and moral positions of men and women in Latino society. As such, over the course of the semester we will look closely at the relationships that help define contemporary Latino culture, the cult of "machismo" and other Latino stereotypes.
