Brian L. Price, Assistant Professor of Spanish, WFU

I have been an Assistant Professor of Spanish in the Department of Romance Languages at Wake Forest University since 2007. My areas of scholarly interest include 20th and 21st century Mexican literary, film, and cultural studies; Latin America’s historical novel; Hispanic appropriations of Anglo-American high modernism; and rock and roll as a countercultural movement. I am the author of Cult of Defeat in Mexico’s Historical Fiction: Failure, Trauma, and Loss (Palgrave, 2012). My articles and book chapters on Mexican literature have been published in Comparative Literature, Latin American Literary Review, Explicación de Textos Literarios, AlterTexto, Revista de Literatura Mexicana Contemporánea, Materias dispuestas: Juan Villoro ante la crítica (Ed. José Ramón Ruisánchez & Oswaldo Zavala, Cadaya, 2011), and Cristina Rivera Garza: Ningún crítico cuenta esto… (Ed. Oswaldo Estrada, Eón, 2010). I am also the coeditor of TransLatin Joyce: Reading James Joyce Globally in Ibero-American Literature and the editor of Asaltos a la historia: Reimaginando la ficción histórica hispanoamericana. I am currently working on a new book project, ¡Viva Rockotitlán!: Rock ‘N’ Roll and Mexican Literature, on the trajectory of literary representations of rock music in recent Mexican fiction. Like Cult of Defeat it will take a historicist approach to locating authors and their literary production within specific historical moments of production and social change over the last 50 years.
