Susan Byrne (World Languages and Cultures) presented a paper titled "Poetry in Prose: de buenas a bellas letras" during the conference El poder de la palabra poética en España y el Nuevo Mundo, the 14th Biennial Conference of the Society for Renaissance and Baroque Hispanic Poetry held at the University of California, Irvine, earlier this month. The conference brought 80 scholars from around the world to California to celebrate Spanish and Latin American verse works from the 16th and 17th centuries.
