I am interested in Hispanic Transatlantic studies, specifically dialogues between Iberian and Amerindian voices in the early modern period. My work revolves around the topics of coloniality, Baroque studies, colonial literature, decolonial theory, indigenous studies and the Spanish Golden Age. Throughout my time at Pitt, I have been working on the idea of a decolonial Baroque as the origins of modern Hispanic letters as well as the foundation of contemporary decolonial theory. In my doctoral dissertation titled Decolonial Baroque: Baroque aspects of Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, I analyze Inca Garcilaso’s works to illustrate three instances where modern Baroque strategies seem to originate from the objectives of a decolonial project.
