A perspective of cultural diversity in Spain and the American Southwest. This course will introduce the differing cultures of Spain within a historical context. Students will look closely at the intertwining of art, religion and history during the Middle Ages, focusing on the Camino de Santiago, the St. James pilgrimage route across northern Spain that is still traveled today.
