![]() ![]() ![]() María Fernanda Ampuero nació en Guayaquil, Ecuador, en 1976 y estudió literatura. ‘Y si un perro, que es un ser de poco entendimiento, sigue fielmente a quien le acaricia la cabeza y el lomo, ¿cómo no ibas tú a seguirlo a él hasta el mismísimo infierno? ❼ómo no ibas a hacer hasta lo imposible por hacerlo feliz, por ayudarlo a cumplir sus promesas? Así, como un perro agradecido, te sentabas a sus pies a mirarlo, a escucharlo arrobada, loca de amor, como si de su boca salieran uvas, miel, jazmines, pájaros.’. This month, Tertulia de Literatura y Cine will discuss a short story by the Ecuadorian writer María Fernanda Ampuero (1976), “ Pasión ”. Tertulia is an event for people who are currently studying Spanish (intermediate to advanced levels), as well as for people who want to practise their Spanish. It then comes to a close with a tutor-led audience interaction aimed to stimulate a discussion on the historical, political and social realities linked to the stories. Each event starts off with a reading session (short stories or poetry) or the viewing of a film in Spanish language. During the Tertulia, participants take part in a guided discussion in Spanish about social, historical and political aspects of the Spanish speaking world through literature and films, with the occasional guest speaker. ![]() This event is organised by the ‘Tertulia de Literatura y Cine’ series run by María Muradás-Taylor (Lecturer in Spanish) at the Department of Language and Linguistic Science. ![]()
