ACIS Database is an open access archive dedicated to the diffusion of ACIS members’ research activity in the framework of Iberian Studies.

With the intention of going beyond the already dynamic annual congresses, this Database aims at fostering research work on contemporary Iberia (twentieth and twenty-first century) from a wide range of disciplines, establishing a productive dialogue with a view to a more symbiotic relation between members who share the same academic interests and hopefully stimulate common projects.

The information is constantly updated, so all members wishing to include their recent production please contact the project coordinator: Susana Relvas by email.

Finally, we stress the idea that your collaboration as ACIS members is inestimable to the Association and an excellent opportunity to share your work and be part of the ACIS new project.

Marcillas-Piquer, Isabel

Isabel Marcillas-Piquer is a professor in the Department of Catalan Philology at the University of Alicante. Specialist in Contemporary Catalan Literature, she has concentrated her research on the recovery of women’s voices through literature. At first, she focused her studies on the work of Aurora Bertrana, to whom she dedicated her doctoral thesis (carried out with a C.FPU-UA scholarship), detailing with emphasis the literature derived from her trips and comparing it with other European travelers. What is more, the exile and experiences that this writer went through also formed an important part of her studies. After this first stream of work, she reoriented her research towards two main axes: 1) Contemporary dramatic literature in Catalan, written by women and 2) Democratic memory from the literary production of women. Likewise, the researcher incorporates into her studies the analysis of otherness through current literary production, especially in the Catalan language. She is part of the Instituto Universitario de Investigación de Estudios de Género (IUIEG) of the Alicante University at the Red Internacional de InvestigadoresTeatralesLatinoamericanos y Europeos (RIITLE).
