uate Studies), John Keller (Chairman), John Lihani, William
McCrary, Daniel Reedy, Gerardo Saenz. Associate Professors

Associate Member: Assistant Professor Edward Stanton.

The Department of Spanish and Italian offers
the Master of Arts and the Doctor of Philosophy
degrees. Graduate Record Examination scores are
required for admission.

Master of Arts Degree. Prerequisites: Attain-
ment in Spanish equivalent to that required for
the undergraduate major in Spanish at the Uni-
versity of Kentucky.

Requirements: standard Graduate School Re-
quirements; reading knowledge of a second-for-
eign language; successful completion of 30 hours
of course work (Plan B), or successful completion
of 24 hours of course work and an acceptable
thesis (Plan A). All M.A. candidates are required
to take the final written and oral examinations
during the semester in which they will have com-
pleted the degree requirements. The M.A. writ—
ten examination is designed to test the candi-
date’s knowledge of the following areas: I) His-
panic civilization and literary history, 2) the M.A.
reading list, and 3) the candidate’s composite
course work. SPI 502 (Survey of the Spanish Lan-
guage) is recommended but not required. For in-
dividuals who contemplate further work leading
to the doctorate SPI 65] (Bibliography and 'Meth—
ods of Research) is recommended but not re-
quired.

Language), SPI éOI (Old Spanish I), SPI 602 (Old
Spanish ll); SPI 65I (Bibliography and Methods
of Research) are recommended but not required;
a reading knowledge of two languages other than
Spanish and English is required: successful com-
pletion of a series of four written examinations
and an oral examination is required for qualifica-
tion for candidacy for the doctorate (see Remarks
below); presentation of acceptable dissertation.

Remarks: All candidates for the Ph.D. degree
are required to spend at least two consecutive se-
mesters of full-time residence beyond the M.A.
degree (excluding summer sessions) in the De—
partment. Full-time residence is defined as nine
course hours per semester (excluding SPI 782—
Special Studies in Spanish) for fellowship or
scholarship holders. Experience has shown that
doctoral candidates should plan to complete two
years of full-time course work beyond the M.A.
degree.

Doctoral candidates may choose to organize
their studies either periodically or generically.
Periodic organization requires that the candidate
pass qualifying examinations in the following
areas: I) Spanish linguistics (especially Old Span—
ish) and Medieval Spanish literature, 2) Spanish
Renaissance and Golden Age literature, 3) Mod-
ern Spanish literature, 4) Spanish American lit—
erature. Generic organization requires that the
candidate pass qualifying examinations in the
following areas: I) Hispanic drama, 2) Hispanic
prose fiction, 3) Hispanic poetry, 4) Hispanic non-
fiction prose, essay, civilization, and linguistics
(the term Hispanic includes both Peninsular and
Spanish American studies).

All candidates for the doctorate are asked to
declare an area of special competence, either
generic or periodic. It is assumed that the can-
didate’s record will reflect more course work in
his/her area. Accordingly, the examination for
the special area will be longer and more detailed
than those for the remaining three. Individuals
who elect to'declare linguistics as an area of spe-
cial competence, in consultation with the Grad-
uate Director, may combine two of the four re—
quired written examinations (e.g., Medieval-Re-
naissance literature).
