Anatxu Zabalbeascoa/Javier R. Marcos ~ Spanish Department ~ Fall 2002


The Center for International Studies and the Department of Spanish were pleased to host International Visiting Scholars, Anatxu Zabalbeascoa and Javier Rodriguez Marcos, for a 3-week short course during September, 2002.

During this minicourse, Spanish Cinema, Culture and Society, students watched and analyzed recent Spanish films and were asked to discuss how they reflect different aspects of current life in Spain: urban development, immigration, social stereotypes, etc. The films were in Spanish without English subtitles. Instruction was in Spanish.

Anatxu Zabalbeascoa and Javier Rodriguez Marcos are journalists, who work for El Pai´s, the most respected and widely read Spanish newspaper. Javier directs the Cultural Supplement, Babelia and Anatxu writes about architecture in a regular column.

Approximately ten years ago, Ms. Zabalbeascoa participated in the University of Iowa Writers Workshop, at which time she visited Grinnell College as a Department of Spanish guest.
