Biography
Félix Miguel Rosario Ortiz holds a Ph.D. in Spanish and Portuguese from Cornell University. His current research examines the construction of a self-image, focusing primarily on paranoia, personal writing, and the limits of the autobiographical genre in Caribbean and Southern Cone literature produced from 1960 to the beginning of the twenty-first century.
Besides his academic work, he has published two poetry books: El tiempo ha sido terrible con nosotros (Ediciones Alayubia, 2020) & También mueren los lugares donde fuimos felices (first recipient of the Juan Ramón Jiménez International Poetry Prize of Coral Gables in 2020).
