专业介绍

Our faculty includes distinguished scholars and writers across a number of fields. Afro-Luso-Brazilian ranges from colonial studies to film, popular music, and contemporary art, while Linguistics focuses on first and second language acquisition, bilingualism, and heritage languages. Early Modern Studies is an interdisciplinary, transatlantic field, with strong ties to CMRS/Center for Early Global Studies and the Center for 17th & 18th Century Studies. Our Peninsular Studies faculty focus on theater and performance, Mediterranean studies, new media, historical memory, gender and sexuality, and migration. Our Latin American section, with support from the vibrant UCLA Latin American Institute, has strengths throughout the region in literature and film, from the Southern Cone and the Andean region to the Caribbean, Central America, and Mexico. Several faculty are both critics and distinguished creative writers in their own right; others are involved in the public humanities, including documentary films on immigration, translation for performance, and K-12 outreach.
