Autorenporträt
Kelly Comfort is Associate Professor of Spanish and Director of Undergraduate Studies in the School of Modern Languages at Georgia Tech. A specialist in Latin American literature and transatlantic modernisms, she has published two books: Cien años de identidad: Introducción a la literatura latinoamericana del siglo XX (2018), an advanced Spanish textbook and Latin American literature anthology, and European Aestheticism and Spanish American Modernismo (2011), which examines the changing role of art and the artist during the turn-of-the-century period and considers the multiple dichotomies of art and life, aesthetics and economics, production and consumption, and center and periphery. Her edited volume Art and Life in Aestheticism (2008) rethinks the relationship in aestheticism between the aesthetic and the human realms over the past two centuries. She is writing a monograph on transatlantic flânerie in Latin American Modernismo . Marylaura Papalas is Associate Professor of French at East Carolina University in Greenville, North Carolina and also serves as book review editor for Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature (STTCL). She specializes in women writers and artists of the French avant-garde, focusing on themes of gender, identity, urbanism, and fashion in their work. Her upcoming monograph on the construction of interwar femininity looks to fashion designer Elsa Schiaparelli and how the figures who wear her garments in transatlantic literature, film and popular culture offer an alternative womanhood that challenges contemporaneous archetypes like the new woman and la femme moderne.
