Report My stay at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum has been very fruitful for my research and teaching career. The chair of Prof. Dr. Roger Friedlein, who has been my host, has specialists in various branches of Romance literature and culture (Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese and Brazilian literatures, among others). During my stay I have been able to present my research project in the seminars organised by Professor Friedlein and the feedback I have received has been extremely useful. In addition, I have had the opportunity to attend various working meetings and academic seminars at Professor Friedlein's chair and I have also taught a class in the course "Wissen und Literatur in der Frühen Neuzeit (Spanien, Portugal)". Finally, this research stay has had a decisive influence on my curriculum vitae, as in December 2021 I obtained a postdoctoral scholarship granted by the Spanish Ministry of Universities. This contract will allow me to continue my research career in Germany for two more years.
