In this class we will study a selection of the often violent and suspenseful literature that served to entertain both the masses and the nobility during the height and rapid decline of the Spanish Empire. We will delve into how the literary establishment, in particular the theater, disseminated and sometimes questioned social and gender norms, all while wrestling with the at times deadly code of honor that permeated Spanish society.
