This course is designed to provide students with background knowledge of the historical and socio-cultural events that influenced, and still exert influence over English-speaking areas of the world. Consequently, the course will provide students with an overview of some relevant historical events of the two most influential English-speaking countries (Great Britain and the United States) to observe how these contributed to the creation, development and transmission of the national identity of both countries.
This program avoids chronological approaches to take instead an interdisciplinary approach to the central elements of those English-speaking cultures. Students will discuss about different aspects of the socio-political, educational, cultural and artistic life of the two countries through the analysis of diverse texts and sources (foundational texts, historical analyses, literature, art, movies, music, mass media, new technologies, cultural studies and critical appraisals). A variety of topics will insist in the nature and origin of the cultural constituency of these countries by analyzing as well how this associates with the students’ native culture.
By the end of the semester students should be able to:
- Identify major historical events of Britain and the United States and understand the cultural reality of both countries.
- Develop a critical understanding of a motley typology of texts.
- Develop strategies for the written and oral communication of critical ideas before an audience or by using different biographical sources to execute a proper scholar paper.
- Think critically about contemporary issues concerning the transnational, global and cultural, social, political and economic relationships between their own cultures and the cultures of the most influential English-speaking countries.
- Have a general knowledge of the cultural and historical contexts in which potential literary, cultural and functional texts insert to apply that information in their work as translators and interpreters. In other words, to apply the knowledge and background provided by this course in improving their performance in relation to the area of study.
