Within these broad areas of study, staff have a variety of more specialised interests that are reflected both in their teaching and in their research.
Principal areas of specialisation
Principal areas of specialisation are modern and contemporary Spanish and Latin American literature and culture, in particular Cuban and Colombian, Portuguese literature, Lusophone African literatures, comparative European literatures, the regions of Spain, the cultures and civilisations of Spain, Portugal, and Latin America.
