Research

PROYECTOS DE INVESTIGACIÓN

  • PoeMAS. Poetry for more people The project is focused on popular music in Spanish in Spain today (since 1975) and is centred on analysing song lyrics and their relationship with poetry from a literary point of view. On the one hand, we study the nature and poetic perception of lyrics. On the other hand, PoeMAS traces the songs that collect poetry from any tradition and period, through musicalisations, adaptations, re-appropriations, intertextualities or other similar relationships. Based on comparative literature and from a textual perspective, this study aims to discover, describe, explain and interpret the close relationship between poetry and current Spanish popular music, whatever its genre (pop, rock, heavy, flamenco, indie, etc.), and to highlight the presence of poetry in everyday life and its relevance and pertinence in today's society. +info
  • Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership “Digiphilit. Innovations in Methodologies and Syllabus: Digital Humanities and Philippine Literature” The project has the following objectives: Facilitate the integration of digital humanities methods in the teaching of literature in higher education. Enable the study of Philippine literature in Spanish, a literature of great quality but invisible and "invisibilised", despite the lack of specialists in most universities in Europe. To improve the didactics of distance education so that students acquire competences and put them into practice. +info
