Publicación Teaching Twilight in the EFL Classroom: Avoiding Possible Pitfalls and How to Use It in a Positive Manner(Universidade de Lisboa, 2024-01-02) Martel Robaina, Martel; Gómez Galisteo, Carmen; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2580-9095; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3284-8375Using literature in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom can be a great tool to promote love of reading or enlarge our students’ vocabulary but the students’ needs, interests, English level and age must be also taken into account. Using canonical works such as Shakespeare’s plays or Virginia Woolf’s works may be of little reading interest for our students. For that reason, in the following essay, we propose using Twilight to teach Secondary education students in Spain (Bachillerato and E.S.O.- Educación Secundaria Obligatoria). We will use Twilight, the first novel in the series by Stephenie Meyer, so as not to overwhelm our students with reading the four novels that make up the series. Given the scope of this paper, we will similarly focus on the novels, not on the movies, although many students may be already familiar with the movies. The use of Twilight in the classroom may be fraught with concerns that the series of novels have raised about the limited roles presented to female characters, the protagonist’s lack of independence, the similarities between the novels’ love interests and domestic abusers … For those reasons, we propose the use of Twilight to discuss issues such as the reliability (or unreliability) of first-person narrators, and, moreover, the reliability of one’s perceptions of the world. We hope to use the novels as a way to discuss concerns of our students in regards to their self-confidence or their perception of themselves, in a positive manner, fostering positive images for our teenage students, a stage of life characterized by difficulties, many changes and turbulent thoughts.Publicación Cuidado con las fake news y las falsas acusaciones #brujasdesalem: cómo podemos enseñar El crisol de Arthur Miller utilizando las redes sociales(Octaedro, 2024-10) Gómez Galisteo, Carmen; Marcelo Martínez, Paula; Marcelo García, CarlosPublicación Introduction to the Special Issue: Teaching Literature in the EFL Classroom(Universidade de Lisboa, 2024-02-03) Gómez Galisteo, Carmen; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2580-9095Publicación Cazas de brujas actuales: leer ‘El crisol’ de Arthur Miller en tiempos de Internet(Asociación The Conversation España, 2025-03-16) Gómez Galisteo, CarmenPublicación “We Want Rights”: Religion, Suffrage, Race, and Gender During the Civil War and the Reconstruction(Taylor and Francis Group, 2024-12-30) Gómez Galisteo, Carmen; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2580-9095Publicación An Eligible Bachelor: Austen, Love, and Marriage in Pride and Prejudice and Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld(Universidade de Lisboa, Centro de Estudos Anglísticos, Ubiquity Press, 2022-10-13) Gómez Galisteo, Carmen; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2580-9095Jane Austen’s six novels have been the starting point of many sequels, continuations, and adaptations. One of such is Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld, a rewriting of Pride and Prejudice set in 21st-century U.S.A., where the search for an eligible bachelor becomes a TV reality show. This essay analyzes how Sittenfeld modifies Austen’s characterization of the main characters and their matrimonial quest taking into account how marriage has changed since the 19th century, exploring what elements persist and what adjustments need to be made in order to bring the spirit of the original to our current days and if such an attempt is ultimately successful.
