Spanish cinema is currently experiencing a period of remarkable vitality. Over the last five years, Spanish films have achieved unprecedented recognition at the most prestigious national and international film festivals. Within our borders, the San Sebasti\u00e1n International Film Festival stands out for awarding three consecutive Golden Shells to Spanish productions: O Corno by Jaione Camborda (2023), Tardes de soledad by Albert Serra (2024), and Los domingos by Alauda Ruiz de Az\u00faa (2025). Internationally, the success has been even more significant: Carla Sim\u00f3n\u2019s Alcarr\u00e0s won the Golden Bear at Berlin in 2022, and 2025 marked a milestone with two films competing at Cannes, where \u00d3liver Laxe\u2019s Sirat claimed the festival’s second most prestigious honor, the Jury Prize.
While triumphing among critics and tastemakers, Spanish cinema is equally successful at the box office, thanks to the work of directors such as Rodrigo Sorogoyen (As Bestas), Dani de la Orden (Casa en flames), or Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi (La llamada). This course analyzes the themes reflected in their work through an interdisciplinary and educational lens, designed to appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as anyone interested in general culture.
The curriculum approaches the subject matter with an innovative and original focus, considering Spanish social conditions alongside industrial circumstances\u2014including synergies with the television industry, streaming platforms, video essays, and digital curation. Within this framework, several sessions specifically highlight the rise of women in key roles throughout the filmmaking process. Furthermore, the faculty maintains gender parity, adhering to the UC3M\u2019s III Equality Plan, and brings together academic specialists in Spanish cinema with seasoned professionals from the film industry. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

Upon completing the course, students will realize that the most emblematic value of the classical world is not the elitist character of its education or a particular monumental aesthetic (to cite two typical categories of the interpretation given throughout the 19th century), but rather the capacity to thematize every human problem, transforming it into a source of personal and collective teaching, fruitful and always enriching. From this experience, capable of converting the intimate drama of existence into a rational theme (thus allowing the birth of philosophy and Attic tragedy), or the difficulties of community life into political reflection, or the imitation of nature into art and technique, emerges that freedom of spirit that permeates all humanisms throughout history and that remains one of the priority ideals of the contemporary world. <\/p>\n
Furthermore, the classical tradition is much closer to the paradigms of digital culture than one might imagine: if the “digital humanities” constitute in a certain way a form of re-imagining the traditional humanities, rethinking the development of the human being in relation to their history and culture through new possibilities for creating and disseminating knowledge, it is well known that the legacy of Greco-Roman civilization has been performing this same task for centuries, updating itself in each era, according to the urgencies of the societies that return to study Antiquity, to find in it answers about their own time.<\/p>\n

The teaching team for the course “The Classical World in the Digital Era: New Challenges” consists of six people, including the Directors, with equal representation between men and women (3+3). Coming from different but complementary disciplines such as Philology, Law, Archaeology and History, they have all been cooperating for many years, working together on the research lines of the “Lucio Anneo S\u00e9neca” Institute of Classical Studies at UC3M. This institute is at the forefront in the Spanish and international sphere in the field of “digital humanities,” developing a series of projects for the online publication of databases and digitization of documents related to the classical world and its survival throughout history. Regarding teaching activity related to the promotion, updating and scientific presentation of various aspects of the classical world, the six course instructors demonstrate a long teaching trajectory, of which the following activities are worth highlighting:<\/p>\n
