Eduardo Matos-Martín is Assistant Professor/Faculty Fellow of Comparative Literature. His research and teaching interests mainly focus on contemporary Spanish peninsular literatures and cinema, and address a wide range of topics in political theory, biopolitics, history and the culture of memory. His current book manuscript, España y sus excluidos. Representaciones de vida desnuda en la ficción española contemporánea, examines cultural representations of the “excluded others” as “bare life” in contemporary novels, short stories and films, tracing it back from the Spanish Civil War to present-day Spain. He has forthcoming articles in Revista de Alces XXI. Journal of Contemporary Spanish Literature & Film and Anales de la literatura española contemporánea. He is additionally co-editing a book entitled Fuera de la ley: el cine y la cultura quinqui de los años ochenta with Luis Martín-Cabrera, Roberto Robles and Joaquín Florido-Berrocal, in which he also authored a chapter on the urban outcast and cinema.
