Welcome to the Key Concepts and Key Works section of the Transnational Cinemas and Literatures course.

Here, you’ll find essential concepts defined in the languages our program covers — Dutch, French, German, Italian, and Spanish — as well as key works in literature and cinema that support the contextualization and analysis of those concepts in transnational literatures and cinemas. This list is dynamic — it will grow as we explore new ideas and revisit films and texts.
