Congratulations to Magdalena Vergara on the successful defence of her doctoral thesis

LLED extends hearty congratulations to Magdalena Vergara on the successful defence of her doctoral thesis!

Reading the South in the North:
A study of Latin American literature in Vancouver teaching contexts

This study explores how Latin American literature is interpreted though grade-school educational practices in Metro Vancouver, Canada, and problematizes potential mechanisms of representation that emerge from such practices through the lens of postcolonial theory.

Supervisor: Dr. Teresa Dobson
Committee members: Dr. Jan Hare and Dr. Marlene Asselin
University Examiners: Dr. Sam Rocha, EDST and Dr. Jen Jenson, LLED
External Examiner: Dr. James Nahachewsky, University of Victoria

Congrats Magdalena, well done!
