Review of grammar with composition and aural-oral practice. Introduction to Hispanic Culture and civilization through intensive and extensive reading.

The representative authors, poets and dramatists of Spanish literature from El Cantar de Mio Cid in the Middle Ages to Quevedo in the Baroque period.

Her research has been situated along the emerging posthumanist paradigm, with a particular focus on the cultural and literary artifacts produced in the Spanish-speaking world, and more specifically in the Iberian peninsula, in the 20th and 21st centuries. Her scholarship advocates for a transdisciplinary worldview that decenters prevailing anthropocentric traditions in literary, epistemic and cultural studies. She focuses on hybrid pieces in literature, film, documentary and different forms of transmedia and performativity situated at the interface of literature, science, technology and visual studies.
