  Entangled History:

The Hispanic-Anglosphere

(late 18^th – early 20^th centuries)

Graciela Iglesias-Rogers, University of Winchester

Graciela Iglesias-Rogers is principal investigator of the AHRC-funded research network project  ‘The Hispanic-Anglosphere: transnational networks, global communities (late 18th-20th centuries)’ which in partnership with the National Trust (Tyntesfield) seeks to develop a new critical conceptual framework – the ‘Hispanic-Anglosphere’ – to study individuals, networks and communities that made of the British Isles a crucial hub for the global Hispanic world and a bridge between Spanish Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas during a period marked by the dislocation of global polities, nation-state building and the rise of nationalism. She is Senior Lecturer in Modern European and Global Hispanic History at the University of Winchester, Associate Lecturer at the Faculty of History, University of Oxford and a former Reuters Fellow with a long career in journalism.  An Oxford graduate (St. Hilda’s) and postgraduate (LMH) as a mature student, her first academic book, British Liberators in the Age of Napoleon: volunteering under the Spanish Flag in the Peninsular War (London and New York: Bloomsbury, 2014) has been followed by other publications, including the recently published book co-edited with David Hook, Translations in Times of Disruption: an interdisciplinary study in transnational contexts (Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan, 2017).

The Latin American History Seminar is convened by Prof Eduardo Posada-Carbó. More info here: https://www.sant.ox.ac.uk/events/entangled-history-hispanic-anglosphere-late-18th-early-20th-centuries
