Biography

[edit]

Lily Litvak was born on 5 June 1938 in Mexico,[1] and came from Mexico City.[2] She obtained a BS from the National Autonomous University of Mexico in 1961 she moved to the United States, where she obtained an MA from Tufts University in 1965 and a PhD from the University of California, Berkeley in 1972.[1]

In 1972, Litvak became an assistant professor of Spanish and Portuguese at University of Texas at Austin, before being promoted to associate professor in 1977.[1] She eventually retired from UT Austin as professor emerita.[3]

Litvak specializes in the Ibero-American fin de siècle era;[3] she told the Austin American-Statesman in 1982 that she chose this period because it was "very relevant, very similar to today: it was complex, filled with philosophical paradoxes."[2] She has written several books and edited volumes, including A Dream of Arcadia: Anti-Industrialism in Spanish Literature, 1895-1905 (1975), Transformación industrial y literatura en España (1895-1905) (1980), El sendero del tigre: Exotismo en la literatura española de finales del siglo XIX, 1880-1913 (1986), El tiempo de los trenes: El paisaje español en el arte y la literatura del realismo (1848–1918) (1991), and Imágenes y textos: Estudios sobre literatura y pintura 1849-1936 (1998).[3][a][b] She has also served as a curator of a few painting exhibitions in Spain.[3]

In 1982,[4] Litvak was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship "for a study of exoticism in Spanish art and literature, 1888–1910";[1] Litvak said that she would travel to France and Spain for her work with the Fellowship.[2] She was appointed corresponding member of the Real Academia de Córdoba [es] on 3 May 2012.[5]

Litvak was married to Rafael Pérez de la Dehesa [es], a Spanish historian who worked as a professor at University of California, Berkeley, until their 1971 divorce; they had one son.[6]
