VANESSA MARIE FERNÁNDEZ is Assistant Professor of Spanish in the Department of World Languages and Literatures at San José State University. Specializing in Transatlantic Hispanic literary studies, she examines 1920s print culture (journals, newspapers, and magazines) as a medium that, much like the internet today, created cultural networks surpassing regional, political, and national borders. Within this field, she recently published the article "From Journal Debate to Novelistic Form: The Case of Margarita de Niebla (1927)" in the Journal of Modern Periodical Studies and "Discord and Solidarity: Spain, Argentina, and Mexico in El Estudiante (Salamanca, Madrid, 1924-1926)," a chapter in the edited volume Pierre Bourdieu in Hispanic Literature and Culture. Her current book project, Bridging the Atlantic: Debating Modernity Across Argentine, Mexican, and Spanish Literary Magazines (1920-1930), argues that print culture created a permeable intellectual network that traversed national boundaries and impacted Spain and Latin America's postcolonial relationship during the 1920s.
