Cineastas del siglo XXI: autor\u00eda, compromiso social y conciencia de g\u00e9nero.\u00a0<\/em>Her book will add to the scholarship on female film directors who have actively contributed to Spanish cinema and will be a valuable addition to the courses she teaches at OWU. Paris-Huesca completed her doctoral dissertation in Hispanic language and culture at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst and holds a Certificate in Film Studies. Her upper-level courses and research focus on contemporary Spanish literature and Spanish women&#8217;s cinema. She regularly teaches introductory and intermediate language &amp; culture courses. In her classes, Dr. Paris-Huesca uses cinema and literature as a pedagogical tool so that learners can place language and culture into context and see the social, political, historical, and cultural complexities and transformations of the Spanish-speaking worlds. She wants her students to question stereotyped perceptions, gain an enduring knowledge of the different existing languages officially spoken in Spain, and have a more profound exposure to diverse cultural viewpoints. Since her arrival at OWU in 2014, Paris-Huesca has supervised numerous honors thesis, research grants, and other academic projects, and she has been involved in the organization of cultural and academic events on a regular basis, including the annual <em>Hispanic Film Festival<\/em>. She has traveled with students to Barcelona and the Basque Country through the Spanish Crime Fiction Travel Learning Course and is planning another travel learning course to Spain to complete a portion of the Camino de Santiago with her students.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OWU Sponsoring Organization\/Office:<\/strong>\u00a0Foundation Relations Office<br \/>\n<strong>Contact:<\/strong>\u00a0Susan Zimmerman at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:sezimmerman@owu.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sezimmerman@owu.edu<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Eva Paris-Huesca, associate professor of Spanish and director of OWU&#8217;s film studies program, was recently awarded a grant from the Great Lakes College Association to support the completion and publication of her manuscript,\u00a0La mirada horizontal.
