Announcing the Dissertation Defense of Hispanic Studies Doctoral Candidate Brian Cole

Ekphrasis and Avant-Garde Prose in 1920s Spain

This dissertation analyzes the “Nova Novorum,” a prose fiction series founded and published by José Ortega y Gasset between 1926 and 1929. This study draws on understandings of ekphrasis from literary studies and art history as well as theories of the literary avant-garde that stem both from Europe and from Spain in particular. The goal of this research is to contribute to our understanding of the rich visuality of novels such as Pedro Salinas’ Víspera del gozo (1926), El profesor inútil (1926) and Paula y Paulita (1929) as well as two works of Antonio Espina: Pájaro pinto (1927) and Luna de copas (1929).
