Juan’s interests include ludic cultures, biopolitics, manuscript and digital media ecologies, and history of emotions. He has published on Alfonso X, Juan Ruiz, cancionero poetry, early modern autographs, literary ideology, Arturo Pomar, Eduardo Scala, and chess historiography. He is currently working on medieval self-control and on textual transmission in manuscript and digital cultures. Based on his dissertation, he plans to write two books: one on medieval joy and happiness; another on the affective and ludic dimensions of the Libro de buen amor. His previous book is Periféricos: Antonio Trujillo, Juan Larrea y Enrique Dussel.
