MARK ANDERSON

Assistant Professor of Spanish
Ph.D., University of California, Riverside, 2004

Dr. Mark Anderson specializes in contemporary Latin American literature and culture, with a focus on Mexican narrative. In the broadest of terms, his research represents an inquiry into the cultural processes of modernity in Latin America, touching topics ranging from encyclopedic fiction to dislocation, migration, and cultural mediations of the environment. He has published work in the Bulletin of Spanish Studies, Revista de Estudios Hispánicos, and Symposium, among other venues. His most recent work analyzes the modern discourses of risk and the social domination of nature in the context of Latin American cultural production relating to natural disasters. He is currently elaborating a book manuscript tentatively entitled The Fruits of Disaster: Cultural Responses to Catastrophe in Latin America, which studies the political uses of cultural texts relating to natural disasters in Brazil, the Caribbean, Central America, and Mexico.
