My early work focused
on twentieth-century Spanish poetry, particularly on the novísimo
poets and their contemporaries. My current interests include the representations
of gendered national identities in both Spanish and trans-Atlantic cultural
production, including poetry, film, narrative, publishing houses, and
literary prizes. I have recently edited a book on Ana Rossetti's complete
works, and I continue working on a book-length study on the representations
of the "feminine" and the nation in the poetry of 20th century
Spanish women.
I have taught a broad range of courses on Spanish and trans-Atlantic
literature and culture, including undergraduate courses on la movida
madrileña, post-Civil-War Spanish literature, Spanish culture
of the 1960's, twentieth-century Spanish poetry, the modern Spanish
essay, gender and fascism in Spain, Spanish women’s writing in
the 20th century, the work of Federico García Lorca, and representations
of the guerrilla and terrorism in Spain and Latin America. At the graduate
level, I have given seminars on Spanish modernism/s, postwar Spanish
poetry, representations of nation and nationality, and Spanish women’s
poetry of the 20th century.
