Since the Conquest, Latin America has been viewed by the European imagination as an "empty" continent, lacking in culture and history. This image of a "savage" continent has been interiorized by Latin America's own intellectuals. This course examines and deconstructs various manifestations of these ideological representations of Latin America.
