New lecture from our LÈNA Research Seminar Series:
On October 6th, to celebrate and commemorate Indigenous Peoples' Month, Professor Anna Brígido Corachán—director of the UV research group LÈNA (US Ethnic Literatures in a Global Context – GIUV2019-457)—will discuss the historiographical and literary methods practiced by the Kiowa people, focusing on Native American writer N. Scott Momaday’s memoir *The Way to Rainy Mountain*.
The lecture, titled "Place-Based Memories and Creative Relatedness: Exploring History through Indigenous Methodologies," is part of the LÈNA Research Seminar Series and brings our work to the Joan Reglà Humanities Library. The lecture will take place in the first floor of the Library (Sala Multiusos) on October 6th at 12:30.
Momaday’s work has inspired the literary exhibition "Place-Based Memories and Cultural Identity," coordinated by Anna Brígido and Rosa Segarra. The exhibition is open to visitors at the Joan Reglà Humanities Library (ground floor) at the University of Valencia until October 13th. Afterward, it will travel to the city of Lublin, Poland.
Following the lecture, we will hold a guided tour of artistic works created by students from the University of Valencia’s Bachelor’s Degree in English Studies and the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin’s (Poland) Master’s Degree in English Studies, all inspired by Momaday’s methodology.
