“Some of the brightest stars of Latino studies will gather to discuss their discipline at Bryn Mawr on Wednesday, Oct. 10, and Thursday, Oct. 11, at “The Futures of Latina/o Studies: A Symposium on the Practices of Latinidad.”

Ten distinguished scholars from around the United States will be joined by keynote speaker Astrid M. Fellner of the University of Vienna. A final session will feature readings by Latina/o authors, including two Bryn Mawr undergraduates.

The symposium was convened by Associate Professor of Spanish and Latina/o Studies Lázaro Lima, author of the recently published The Latino Body: Crisis Identities in American Literary and Cultural Memory, one of the first comprehensive accounts of Latino cultural history.”
