Her research interests include 20th and 21st century U.S. fiction with a focus in Chicana\/o literature.<\/p>\n<p>We asked Linares a few questions about her teaching and her writing\u00a0projects.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color:#ff0000\">How did you get interested in Chicana\/o literature?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I wasn&#8217;t even aware there was such a thing until my second year of graduate school at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Though I am Chicana and though I\u2019d read some of the big ones (Cisneros\u2019s <i>House on Mango Street<\/i>, Anaya\u2019s <i>Bless Me, Ultima<\/i>, and excerpts from Anzald\u00faa\u2019s <i>Borderlands\/ La Frontera<\/i>) early on, I didn\u2019t realize the breadth of the field until I took a class on Chicana Literature and Theory the spring semester of my second year in graduate school.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->Before then, I wanted to study African American literature because that had been the only place where I saw stories and experiences that resembled something like my own reflected in literature.<\/p>\n<p>I grew up in south central Pennsylvania, but neither of my parents were native Pennsylvanians. My mom was from Georgia, and my dad is from Mexico. Growing up in a mixed Mexican\/ southern household is pretty weird in itself, but doing it in the north was even more bizarre. I had a lot of wild stuff happen during those formative years\u2014including being put into an ESL class in the first grade even though I could only speak English.<\/p>\n<p>When I read African American literature for the first time, I felt a kinship with those authors because I also knew what it felt like to be silenced and discounted. I also knew, of course, that their experiences weren\u2019t the same as mine and that it was a totally different thing to be African American than it was to be Mexican American.<\/p>\n<p>But, as one of my favorite theorists, Ed\u00e9n Torres, articulates much more eloquently than I can, my exposure to African American literature allowed \u201cmy wounds [to become] visible for the first time\u201d and helped me realize that \u201cI was neither crazy or alone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I came to African American literature much sooner than Chicana\/o literature for a lot of reasons, one of which is where I got my undergraduate degree. I attended Marlboro College, a tiny liberal arts college in southern Vermont. Marlboro is a special place because it allows students a lot of agency in their studies. By junior year or sooner, students there work with faculty members to design focused, one-on-one tutorials in their areas.<\/p>\n<p>For example, I read Faulkner\u2019s <i>As I Lay Dying<\/i> in a class the second semester of my sophomore year. By my senior year, I knew that I wanted to write about Faulkner in my thesis, so I worked with a faculty member to design a tutorial on his work, and in that tutorial, I read nearly all of his novels in one semester. I was interested in Faulkner primarily because of how he talked about race, and it didn\u2019t escape me that there were much more qualified people to speak on the subject. I\u2019d also read plenty of their books during my time at Marlboro.<\/p>\n<p>When I entered grad school, I decided to focus my studies on African American voices, and I did that for my first year. Then I discovered Chicana\/o literature. I felt empowered but also angry that this was the first I knew about the field. I\u2019ve tried to channel that anger productively into my research, which often works.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000\"><strong>In short, I became both interested and invested in my research when I discovered that it was possible for people from my culture and my socio-economic background to have a voice in academia, and I\u2019ve stuck with it because I don\u2019t want mine to be silenced again.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color:#ff0000\">How would you describe yourself as a teacher? What are you most proud of as a teacher?\u00a0<\/span><strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I like to think I\u2019m a laid back teacher. I\u2019m not a huge perfectionist, so that helps. In all of my classes, I try to create a comfortable atmosphere that invites everyone in the room to see each other as complex people who have a lot of different interests. I want my students to feel like they can test out ideas and not worry that they\u2019re going to be judged if they aren\u2019t perfectly articulated. I like to see people take risks, and I know that won\u2019t happen if they\u2019re afraid.<\/p>\n<p>I am pretty proud of the rapport I have with my students, but my proudest moments as a teacher usually happen privately\u2014like when a student who has been struggling with an assignment nails it in the final draft or when someone e-mails me over the summer to ask for a book recommendation. I hope that answer doesn\u2019t sound like I\u2019m trying to perform selflessness because I\u2019m not. It\u2019s all narcissism. Like everyone else, I just like to feel like I matter, so my proudest moments happen whenever I know that it matters that I was part of someone\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color:#ff0000\">What are you working on right now?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In terms of my scholarship, I\u2019m working on an article about the acquisition of literacy in Toni Morrison\u2019s novel <i>The Bluest Eye<\/i> and Am\u00e9rico Parades\u2019s <i>George Washington G\u00f3mez<\/i>. While learning to read is normally written about as a way to gain power, both of these novels address the violence that learning to read does to children of color during the first half of the twentieth century. I\u2019m in the early stages of this project, and I\u2019m looking forward to seeing how it all comes together.<\/p>\n<p>Creatively, I\u2019m working on a collection of flash non-fiction tentatively titled <i>The Feeling Wheel<\/i>. One piece from it, \u201cWhat My Couch Smells Like,\u201d appears in the <a href=\"http:\/\/nanofiction.org\/category\/issues\" target=\"_blank\">latest issue of <i>NANO Fiction<\/i><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color:#ff0000\">Welcome to the English Department, Lupe!<\/span><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s a small-world story: the first time Professor Cathy Day met new faculty member Dr. Lupe Linares, she asked, &#8220;So, where are you from?&#8221; &#8220;Oh, this little town near Gettysburg you&#8217;ve probably never heard of.&#8221; Prof. Day said, &#8220;I lived for a few years in this tiny town called Gardners, Pennsylvania.&#8221; There was a pause.
