Colleague Prof. Rebecca Bender invited me to give a lecture at KSU on November 10, 2016 for the Spanish Department’s Celebración Cervantina. My presentation titled, Read me a story Mr. Cervantes: Reading and Writing Practices in Early Modern Spain, was an exciting way to share my love for Don Quixote and my current research on reading/writing practices in 17th century Spain. I was flattered with the enthusiastic turnout, the warm welcome, and the inquisitive questions form students and faculty. Thanks so much to Professor Bender, the Spanish Club and everyone at KSU that contributed to making my visit a success.
