Giovanni BEllo

PhD Candidate

My field of research is Cultural History, although I’m also interested in the History of Ideas and Cultural Studies in general. So far, I have concentrated on two periods of the Bolivian twentieth century: the twenties and the sixties. In both cases I’m interested in seeing the interaction between literate and popular sensibilities. Some of the research topics that interest me most are contemporary literature, the avant-garde, cosmopolitanism, cultural industries, the counterculture and mass culture.
