Would you have liked to have gone to the last literary circle that the Cervantes Institute organised in their Berlin headquarters? Are you interested in Spanish and Latin American culture? CervantesTv.es, (Foto: 3dom/flickr) the audiovisual platform that the Cervantes Institute has just launched, means that you can now watch many of the events that each office organises on the internet, providing viewers with information about Spanish and Latin American culture.

It is the first audiovisual platform working in a European institution dedicated to covering language and culture around the world. 12 February saw the first transmission across the internet. ‘There are multiple objectives,’ says José María Martínez, head of press and communications, ‘to increase the presence of Spanish on the internet, spread our culture and go where it has previously not been physically possible for the centres of the institute to go, reaching out to both the youth and professionals.’”*
