Spanish Ph.D. student Elizabeth Mirabal has been announced as the 2024 Tibor Wlassics Dante Fellowship winner. Her project, titled “El infierno carece de sonrisa”: Dante’s Cuban Literary Legacies, aims to research the enduring interest of Cuba in Dante’s literary works, starting from the long tradition of exile and insilio (internal exile) among its writers and, particularly, poets. Funded by Luciana Wlassics, the Tibor Wlassics Dante Research Fellowship is awarded annually to a graduate student pursuing research on Dante.
