In this portion of the Final Exam, we'll ask you how art and literature helps you understand a specified period in Latin America's history.

Bad news: we get to specify the period, not you.

More bad news: the periods include ones covered in the whole course, not just since the mid-term.

---

The period will be one of the following:

Pre-columbian

Encounter and Conquest

Colonial baroque

Independence and Neoclassicism

Mid-19th Century (Romanticism, Costumbrismo)

Late 19th Century (Modernism, Positivism, Naturalism)

---

Good news: nothing in the 20th Century (too complicated).
