A novel experience
Student’s narrative map brings 1xbet sports betting story to life
By Michelle Geering
Delving into the quality of life for 1xbet sports betting women in the early 20th century calls on all facets of Anna Welsh’s triple major of art, psychological sciences and 1xbet sports betting . Welsh is researching and creating a visual interpretation of a recently rediscovered 1xbet sports betting novel.
Welsh, senior in Kansas State University’s College of Arts and Sciences, is using a 1xbet sports betting grant from the Office of Undergraduate 1xbet sports betting and Creative Inquiry for her project, “Mapas, mujeres y Madrid: del nacimiento a la muerte con las mujeres madrileñas en ‘La Rampa’ (1917) de Carmen de Burgos,” which translates to “Maps, women and Madrid: From birth to death with women of Madrid in Carmen de Burgos’ ‘The Ramp’ (1917).”
“La Rampa” is a gritty, realistic look at life in Madrid during a time of great growth in the early 20th century. The story emphasizes the lives of lower-class women from birth through death. Life is not easy for the main characters and the novel explores their decline of quality of life through the metaphor of the ramp.
“I really enjoyed reading this book,” Welsh said. “It was one of the more complete 1xbet sports betting novels that I have read during my 1xbet sports betting studies. I enjoyed and fully understood it like I would any other book in English.”
In her 1xbet sports betting , Welsh is exploring the correlation between age and quality of life during this time in Madrid. She is creating a narrative cartography, which is an illustrated map of specific data points. Welsh is using three broad age groups — infants/children, young adults from 20-40 years old and adults older than 40 years — and is plotting the areas of Madrid where these age groups appeared in the novel. While the book is fiction, it is based in historical facts that support Welsh’s 1xbet sports betting and examination of the novel and map of Madrid side by side.
“This is such a dream project,” Welsh said. “It’s a synthesis of all of my majors and I’ll be able to use my 1xbet sports betting at a higher level than I’ve been able to do in the past.”
In fall 2020, Welsh was introduced to “La Rampa” in a 20th century 1xbet sports betting literature course, “Mapping Madrid,” taught by Rebecca Bender, assistant professor of 1xbet sports betting . According to Bender, Burgos’ books and books of other authors, were censored, lost or destroyed during the Francisco Franco dictatorship.
“Essentially, when the dictatorship ended in the 1970s, people started finding and rediscovering these authors and texts,” Bender said. “That’s why people today are just starting to study and do work on Carmen de Burgos. Her novels are now being published in Spain under new, modern publishing presses.”
Welsh presents her 1xbet sports betting this spring at Initials, which is the K-State modern languages departmental 1xbet sports betting symposium. Additionally, Welsh and Bender are working to publish her illustrated map in relevant locations and media outlets in Spain to share her 1xbet sports betting with a broader audience and promote Burgos’ overlooked literature.
