SUMMARY:Women and Servants
DESCRIPTION:Women and Servants (1613-14) turns Madrid upside down\, as daughters and secretaries outsmart their fathers and masters for the sake of love. Lope’s marvelous comedy depicts a sophisticated urban culture of self-fashioning and social mobility\, where creaky notions of honor and vengeance have virtually no place. Recently rediscovered in Madrid’s Biblioteca Nacional\, the play emerges from its 400-year sleep with a remarkable freshness: in this world of suave dissimulation and accommodation\, those on the bottom make room for their voices and their desires. \nRsvp to c1718cs@humnet.ucla.edu \n

SUMMARY:ROSANA: MASTER CLASS
DESCRIPTION:Rosana\, a Latin Grammy nominee for best singer-songwriter\, is back to the United States on tour\, and she will conduct a special master class for our students before her concert at Club Bahía. \nIn her latest album\, 8 Lunas\, Rosana encompasses the classics of her career (some of them very well known singles\, while others have gained importance over the years). The album includes new versions of her greatest hits featuring various artists\, such as Rubén Blades\, Fito Cabrales\, Mario Domm (Camila)\, Jesús Navarro (Reik)\, Sie7te\, Susana (Efecto Mariposa)\, Gianmarco\, Abel Pintos\, Andrés Cepeda and Dani Martín. \nShe is one of the most influential Spanish artists of the last decade. Rosana was made known in 1996 by Lunas Rotas. Since then\, she has released 8 albums and has sold more than 10 million copies all over the world. \nRosana revolutionized the Spanish music market in the late 90s. With a first album in which she hardly showed her face and her guitar\, she literally ate the market with a handful of intimate songs\, with messages and melodies direct to the senses. \n“My concerts are encounters with friends\, but people always have an advantage over me: they know me better than I know them. So I perform every night on stage as if the world was ending”\, she recalls. \nMaster class at the Department: 11AM / Lydeen Library\, Rolfe Hall 4302. \nConcert at Club Bahia:­ 8PM / $30\, W. Sunset Blvd.\, L.A.

Marcone pays special attention to discourses on Amazonia and tropical forests\, or the quintessential landscape in Latin America for criticizing modernity\, or for apologizing for it\, as well as for denouncing the idealization of wilderness. At Rutgers\, Marcone is a member of the Department of Spanish and Portuguese and the Center for Latin American Studies and currently serves as Undergraduate Director for the Program in Comparative Literature. \nJennifer Wenzel (English\, Columbia) is the author of Bulletproof: Afterlives of Anticolonial Prophecy in South Africa and Beyond(Chicago and KwaZulu-Natal\, 2009)\, which was awarded Honorable Mention for the 2010 Perkins Prize by the International Society for the Study of Narrative.
