Ana María Díaz-Marcos (Ph.D. 2003, Hispanic Literature, University of Massachusetts, Amherst) teaches Spanish Literature and Cultural Studies. Díaz-Marcos has written several articles and book chapters on Spanish women writers such as María Rosa Gálvez, Rosario de Acuña and Carmen de Burgos. Some of her research interests include 18th century theatre and popular culture and 19th century narratives about the body and its relation to issues such as class struggle, adultery and prostitution. She has published a book on representations of fashion in modern Spanish literature, La edad de seda (Cádiz: Universidad de Cádiz, 2006) and has edited the essay La casa de muñecas by Rosario de Acuña (Sevilla: Arcibel, 2006).
