These areas are: Latin American and Regional Literature, National Latin American Literatures (Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay), Chilean Literature, and Literary Theory (Contemporary Theory and Latin American Critical Theory). The series of contemporary issues and reflections addressed are organized around the department's research lines, specifically "Literature and Society" and "Literature and Intermediality.".
