Unsere dritte Folge führt uns in die unmittelbare Nähe des Hackeschen Marktes mitten in Berlin. Hier, in der Rosenstrasse, befindet sich in einem ehemaligen Kaufhaus das Instituto Cervantes, das spanische Kulturinstitut. Im Gegensatz zu anderen, eher landesspezifischen Kulturinstituten, konzentriert sich die Arbeit des Instituto Cervantes nicht nur auf das Land Spanien. Denn die Cervantes-Institute haben es sich zur vornehmlichen Aufgabe gemacht, die spanische Sprache zu fördern und das Kulturgut aller spanischsprachigen Länder weltweit bekannt zu machen und zu pflegen. Entsprechend steht hier auch voll und ganz das Thema Spracherwerb im Vordergrund. Frei nach dem Motto: "LERNE BEI EL ORIGINAL!" Zum Gespräch getroffen haben wir in dieser Folge Ignacio Olmos, den Leiter des Hauses. Mit ihm unterhalten wir uns über seinen persönlichen Blick auf die Deutschen, über die zunehmende Politisierung von Kulturarbeit - und über die drei Phasen, die Ausländer in Deutschland durchleben. Viel Spaß! Alles zum Kultur- und Sprachprogramm des Instituto Cervantes, speziell auch über die im Gespräch erwähnte Veranstaltung "Simpel ist auch keine Lösung", freut sich hier über einen Klick: https://www.jetzt-lernst-du.es Vielen Dank fürs zuhören.

Mario Vargas Llosa once said that writers who profess left-wing ideas tend to be much more popular than those who don't. Perhaps he didn't mean Borges, maybe he meant poet, novelist and Latin American icon Mario Benedetti. We invited the indefatigable biographer, critic and translator Adam Feinstein, currently rendering Benedetti's experimental and versed novel El cumpleaños de Juan Ángel, to discuss the various reasons behind Benedetti's enormous popularity in the Spanish speaking world. In doing so, we finished reevaluating his vast and diverse oeuvre in more than one way. Recorded live with music of Joan Manuel Serrat plus wonderful poetry readings by Enrique Zattara and Adam Feinstein himself. Organised by the Uruguayan Embassy together with Cervantes Institute in London as a part of the series Authors in Search of a Reader. Presented by Juan Toledo

Homage to Mexican Francisco Mendez, founder of Mendez Boxing gym, who was a victim of COVID-19. The amazing poet Luis García Montero, current Director of Cervantes Institute. Colombian band Aterciopelados and the secret to stay successful and respected.

An exhibit at the Cervantes Institute in Madrid focuses on some of the most important — but largely ignored — women writers of Spain's 16th and 17th centuries.

In collaboration with the Cervantes Institute in London we continue with our series Writers in Search of A Reader.  This time we discuss, in front of a live audience, the incredible singularity and legacy of cult Argentinian writer Roberto Arlt. Rediscovered in his own country just two decades after his early death in 1942, Arlt has the geniality of a true autodidact who by sheer neccesity became a poor man's Rennaissance figure: chronicler, reporter, playwright, inventor, short story teller and novelist. His four novels are now classics in the Latinamerican literary cannon particularly his masterpiece Los siete locos -The Seven Madmen. We invited Arlt translator Nick Caistor together with illustrator and cartoonist Oscar Grillo to discuss his indisputable originality and to explain why he is an obligatory reading for any lover of literature in any language. With Juan Toledo. Listen to our previous programme in Spanish on Arlt

There are few and far between artists who always defy categorisation. The singer, rapper and hip-hop artist Ana Tijoux is one of them. Born in Lille, France, of Chilean parents exiled from Pinochet regime, she was then brought up in Paris and "re-educated" in Chile. Ana is the daughter of a famous sociologist mother and a political scientist father who exposed her to jazz and 70's political song writers from Latin America. She is already a celebrated musician who embodies the truly global community spirit of our time. Her music gives voice to the muted and marginalised members of our societies. She is, in her own words, "an optimist in theory but a pessimist in practice" who nevertheless manages to bring a message of transgenerational hope and resistance to all of us. This programme was recorded in front of a live audience at Senate House in London as part of the Thinking Iberoamerica series organised by The Institute of Latin American Studies and The Cervantes Institute. Presenters: Ignacio Peyró and Juan Toledo Watch Ana Tijoux's masterful videos Somos sur and Todo lo sólido se desvanece en el aire 

On 20 April 2018, the Warburg Institute (in conjunction with the Cervantes Institute) will host an event on books and readers in the Spanish-speaking world, with the theme 'The Book as World, the World as Book'. The day will culminate in a conversation...

In collaboration with The Cervantes Institute London and as part of our series Writers in Search of a Reader, we bring you our second author: the poet Nicanor Parra. One of the most original voices of 20th Century literature in any language. A long time physics lecturer who wrote poetry as a "second job" and won The Cervantes Prize in 2011. Founder of the anti-poetry movement, political anarchist and a satirist whose literary purpose was "to tell, not to sing." Member of a cultural dynasty in his native Chile and the last to die -at the age of 103- of a very prestigious group of writers born all in 1914 -Octavio Paz, Julio Cortázar, Adolfo Bioy-Casares, Dylan Thomas, William Burroughs. Friend and foe of Pablo Neruda and a writer who deserves to be much better known among English readers. Introduced by Ignacio Peyró, Director Cervantes Institute London with the participation of the translator and biographer Adam Feinstein and the publisher Pablo Nascimento (great grandson of Parra's first ever publisher). Chaired by Juan Toledo with readings by Pablo Nascimento and Cristóbal -Tololo- Ugarte, Nicanor Parra's own grandson. Recorded live at The Cervantes Institute in March 2018 Cervantes Institute Cultural Calendar  Videoclip of Nicanor Parra reading in 1977 from Sermones y prédicas del Cristo de Elqui

As part of our new podcast series Six Writers in Search of a Reader currently being presented and recorded at The Cervantes Institute in London, we offer you our first public discussion on the great but sadly late Argentinian writer, diarist and critic, Ricardo Piglia. This public homage coincided with the publication in English of The Diaries of Emilio Renzi by Restless Books and to commemorate Piglia -and Renzi- we invited Professor John Kraniauskas from Birkbeck College and the young writer, novelist and lecturer at Cambridge University, Carlos Fonseca. We recorded live our conversation on the role that fiction plays in the creation of the nation state and the great institutions; diary writing as a literary genre and a self mitologising practice; the prewar Argentinian and Uruguayan literary tradition and how Piglia pointed the way to how to write novels after the big Latin American Boom authors. With a live audience plus a Q&A session. Presented by Juan Toledo and Francesc Puértolas

The first time I chatted to Phil Neville was in the Hilton gym in Manchester, which overlooks the Cervantes Institute. Gesturing to the building below, Phil mentioned on that occasion that he would love to learn Spanish. Years later. the opportunity to coach at Valencia gave him the chance to fulfil that ambition. Phil breaks down how he learned the language and soaked in the football culture of the nation. He is fascinating on the differences between coaching in Spain and Britain and the legacy left by his brother. Gary, at the club. Enjoy!
