Antonia Carcelén-Estrada

Antonia Carcelén-Estrada teaches oral and postcolonial literature at USFQ, Ecuador and Sarah Lawrence College in the United States. Her decolonial research connects transatlantic literature and historiography from the early-modern period and translation studies to better understand today´s intercultural conflicts, political cultures, and the performance of a deep memory. She traverses disciplines and borders to weave the histories of Muslim, Black, and Indigenous peoples and their literary imaginations as they articulate a decolonial resistance against contemporary regimes of oppression.
