VAP of Spanish at Kenyon College | Currently writing about rurality, industrialization, and labor in Asturias under Franco.
Entering my Midwest emo phase as I start as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Spanish at Kenyon College. So excited to teach courses here on Spanish language, culture, film, comics, music, and everything else I can cram in. 🌽👨🏻‍🏫

Brilliant episode! The portion about the set designer was fascinating. Jorge Bogaerts published this fantastic book on the architect of these papier-mâché spectacles, for those curious for more info on the subject

I analyzed the battle for discursive and material hegemony over the region through an array of cultural texts, historical archives, and theoretical lenses to better understand Francoism from an understudied regional perspective. 📸 by @isabelalvarez.bsky.social We wish she were there in person!

Yesterday I defended my dissertation “Mythologized Modernization: Asturias and the Construction of Franco’s Spain” and passed with distinction. So grateful to my committee for all the guidance along the way and a fantastic conversation to map the road ahead!

A picture is worth (7)1,000words, they say.
What a time to finish writing—for now—about authoritarianism, labor, extraction, and the mythologies of nation.

In Asturleonese, teito or teitu, sharing an origin with the castillan word techo, for roof! One can see how that name came about. Some are still maintained, mostly in the Somiedo natural park, like this one
