Breve descripción de contenidos (Según memoria de verificación del Máster)

This course is taught in English. We will discuss the debates around language and translation from a feminist perspective, understanding these concepts as material-discursive practices. We will situate them in the different turns of the humanities (such as new materialisms, post-structuralisms, queer studies, and decolonial studies among others).
