Autorenporträt
Isabel Díaz-Morlán has a PhD in musicology from University of the Basque Country, where she received the Orfeón Donostiarra-University of the Basque Country Award for musical research. She teaches music history and Spanish at Musikene (Higher School of Music of the Basque Country), and she has published several articles and a book on the song genre in the Basque Country, as well as biographies on Spanish composer Emma Chacón and San Sebastian pianist Leo de Silka. Drawing on the mimetic theory of the French philosopher René Girard, she has initiated a new line of research that seeks to demonstrate, through musical and literary analysis, how some musical works, especially operas, can be vehicles for the revelation of human mimetic behavior.
