IN PROGRESS
BOOK PROJECT
(Tentative title): Kant en Machado. Las nociones kantianas de intuición y concepto en la
obra de Antonio Machado.
Brief Abstract
This book explores the Kantian notions of "intuition" and "concepts," as discussed in
Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason, and its tremendous influence on Antonio Machado's
work, both prose and poetry. According to Kant, knowledge emanates from two sources:
intuition, or elements of the sensibility, and concepts, or elements of the understanding.
These Kantian notions of "intuition" and "concepts" can be found throughout Antonio
Machado's work, where he exposes his philosophical thoughts and meditates about time
and space, subjective and objective reality, nature and poetic creation.
FESTSCHRIFT
(Tentative title): Estudios en honor a Joan Gilabert.
Brief Abstract
Festschrift in honor to Professor Joan Gilabert. Contributions are related to any of the
ideas about literature, culture or philosophy that Professor Joan Gilabert has shared with
his students and colleagues throughout his long and productive career.

BOOK ANTHOLOGY
(Tentative title): Poetas barceloneses de hoy: voces emergentes desde la diversidad.
Brief Abstract
This project seeks to explore the works of contemporary poets, specifically working and
living in the metropolitan area of Barcelona, who write in either Catalan or Spanish. The
focus of this study, then, is the political, ethical, and ideological dimensions that run
through their work and give it a special status in the history of literature. Their work will
manifest a proliferation of different lines of growth, a multiplicity of stems and roots
which can cross at any point to form a variety of possible connections, connections that
the reader will make resulting in a map that entertains minor perspectives working
towards a deterritorialization that expresses, as Deleuze and Guattari write, “states of
desire independent of all interpretation.”
