Sara Nadal-Melsió
Assistant Professor of Romance Languages
Contemporary Peninsular Literatures and critical theory. Trained as
a comparatist in 19th- and 20th-century European literatures, she is
committed to an interdisciplinary and transnational approach to the
cultural productions of contemporary Spain. Nadal is the co-author of
a book on emergent discourses surrounding the "periphery"
as a social space, Alrededor de: periferias (Gustavo Gili, 2002).
She is currently working on a book manuscript, "The Decays of Realism:
A Negative Genealogy," that examines the strategic centrality
of realism as a target and calls for a reassessment of its epistemological
discourse. Article-length projects include the role of the documentary
in Surrealism and representations of the insurrectional city.
