Curriculum Vitae

Professor of Spanish

Languages, Literatures and Cultures

Inspired by my love for languages and literature, and after having studied mostly Spanish, but also French, Italian, Portuguese and Arabic, I taught both high school and college Spanish on the West Coast before being attracted to Marquette in 1981 by its promising language department and its flourishing Madrid program. Since then, I have had the opportunity to teach almost every level of Spanish language and literature at Marquette, the privilege of interacting with and benefiting from several generations of MU students, and also the opportunity to live in Madrid and direct our program there on several occasions.

In addition to many articles on Hispanic women's poetry and theater, Professor Pasero published her book-length translation of the Spanish poet Clara Janés' La voz de Ofelia (Ophelia's Voice) in 2011 and is currently preparing a translation of another of the poet's major works, Guardar la casa y cerrar la boca (To Keep the House and Shut One's Mouth), due out later this summer (2021). 

Professor Pasero was also recently named the inaugural Association for Marquette University Women Distinguished Professor, effective August 23, 2021.
