Congratulations, Holly Jackson!

Congratulations to Holly Jackson, who will begin as an Assistant Professor in Northern Arizona University in Fall 2019. In her dissertation, Writing Spain: Race, Migration and the Construction of the Pueblo (1937-2011), Holly focuses on twentieth-century Spanish literature as a territory of doubt, arguing that literary critique of Spain's official national narratives happens across and beyond the historical and geographical borders of the modern-day nation. Muchas felicidades, Holly!
