Clinger Presents at NeMLA

Braden Clinger presented his paper “‘A callar he dicho’: Bernarda Alba en la casa de Alatriste” at the recent meeting of the Northeast Modern Language Association (NeMLA), in a panel called “Tradición e innovación: la adaptación de obras literarias en el mundo hispánico”.

This paper, based on archival research and an interview, focused on the adaptative choices made by Gustavo Alatriste and his collaborator, Luis Buñuel, in the unauthorized 1982 adaption of Federico García Lorca’s La casa de Bernarda Alba with special attention paid to the recreation of Julio Romero de Torres paintings in the final act of the film.

Braden is a third year doctoral student in our Hispanic Language & Literatures program.
