Spanish Professors Ketevan Kupatadze and Mayte de Lama presented at the XXXV Congreso Internacional de Literatura y Estudios Hispánicos held in Oaxaca, México on March 10-12, 2024.

Kupatadze’s presentation “The Ethics of Writing Fiction in an Unjust World: Valeria Luiselli’s ‘Lost Children Archive and Tell Me How It Ends’was part of a panel on Migration, Afrolatinidad and Transmutation in Hispanic prose.
de Lama presented her work “Saldando cuentas pendientes: Victims and Victimizers in Marina Mayoral’s narrative,” where she analyzed the novel Crimen Perfecto (2007). The protagonist in such a novel oscillates between being a victim and an agent of victimization in an hetero-normative and patriarchal society.
