course narrative
This course was one of my favorites because I learned how woman evolutioned throughout literature and how empowering they were. In this class I discovered many woman writers that I did not know before. I fell in love with all of them. The novels that they wrote were amazing and they completely sucked me into their writing. Once I started reading a novel I did not want to stop reading it. One of my new favorites was "Arráncame la vida" by Ángeles Mastretta. Dr. Zielina made sure we all understood the novels and she helped us analyze them with so much depth and reminded us to not forget any detail mentioned in these novels. We were able to notice the different writing styles with each novel, and we learned about the motives of the authors for writing these novels. We also learned about how these women in history struggled and how they wrote about society and it all traced back to their own backgrounds in society. We saw the issues that they faced, some of them were social class, race, gender, religion, ethnicity, etc. This class served as an eye opener because even though these woman writers in the past struggled a lot, for some women the battle is still ongoing against society today. I was also amazed to see how much todays society has and has not changed. This class motivated to be more informed with everything that is going on in our world, it taught me that even though they were all from different places of the world they all had either the same or very similar challenges in their lives.
