The colloquium is conceived as a space of dialogue and multi-disciplinary encounters, in which specialists within the field of Hispanic Studies, the arts, and the wide sphere of culture discuss their research and their work with graduate students, faculty members, and the university community at large. From a wide array of theoretical and methodological approaches, but always with the Hispanic world as the common denominator, the main objective of the colloquium is to delve into current debates about culture and language, understood as dynamic and perpetually reconfiguring landscapes of intercultural communication.
