Dr. Bugel will examine how representations of and attitudes toward different varieties of Spanish in Brazil are closely tied to perceptions of their speakers and may shape the ways those speakers are viewed and treated. She will also discuss the implications of these attitudes for language education and present a proposal for rethinking how linguistic varieties are addressed in the classroom.

This lecture will be presented in Spanish. All are welcome to attend.
