In Between Spaces in Translation: Writers House In Conversation with Latin American and Latinx Studies, MARCH, and English

 

Using The House on Mango Street as a starting point, four faculty members—Carla Giaudrone, Keith Green, Ophelia Hostetter, and Silvia Perez-Cortes—will explore the connections between identity, language, and environment. This discussion will consider what it means for a seminal work of Chicano literature to be composed in English, the complexities of translating it into Spanish, and how place—whether urban landscapes or cultural spaces—shapes the narratives we create.
