Conflictos sociales a través de la novela gráfica contemporánea from edX

El arte ha sido testigo de los diferentes conflictos sociales que han cambiado la estructura de las sociedades modernas. A veces la reflexión se hace desde la distancia de un lugar lejano o de un tiempo posterior. A veces los autores hablan del aquí y el ahora, usando el lápiz, la tinta o el ordenador, como testimonio de lo que los afecta como individuos miembros de una sociedad.

La cantidad de factores que intervienen en los conflictos sociales son tan variados que es muy posible desconocer los elementos claves de índole internacional, nacional y local que los integran.

La novela gráfica nos ayudará a comprender estos elementos, ya que involucra una mirada personal y subjetiva que se sustenta en la investigación y en el testimonio documental.

De esta manera, además de aprender sobre los acontecimientos históricos y sociales que definieron y definen los diferentes conflictos contemporáneos, aprenderás conceptos claves para el análisis de las novelas gráficas que utilizan el testimonio y la investigación documental para desvelarnos la cruda realidad de los actores y las víctimas de estos sucesos. Serán la estética visual y textual las que nos orienten en este recorrido histórico.

Este curso es impartido por profesores e investigadores de la comunicación, de la novela gráfica, del cómic y de las ciencias sociales.
