This week we celebrated the London launch of Hispanic Coetzee: World Literature Beyond the Anglosphere, the new book by Chilean researcher, author and translator Cristóbal Pérez Barra.

Through an exploration of Coetzee's relationship with the Hispanic literary tradition - including Cervantes, Borges and Pablo Neruda - Cristóbal invites us to reconsider one of the world's great contemporary writers beyond an exclusively Anglophone lens.

We were delighted to welcome David Gallagher, former Ambassador of Chile to the UK, back to the Embassy where he served from 2018 to 2022.

Following a brief introduction to the book, David and Cristóbal engaged in a fascinating conversation on Coetzee, translation, literary influence and world literature.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an evening of ideas, conversation and, of course, literature. 🇨🇱🇬🇧📖

Pictured here are Magdalena Jones, President of the Group, and committee members Monica Volpin and Angela Moon.

Ambassador Diego Paulsen attended a religious service at our Embassy in memory of Suboficial Mayor (Sergeant Major) Marco Cosme, who was posthumously promoted after losing his life in the line of duty while serving Chile.

The service was officiated by Reverend Paul Kennedy, Rector of St Vedast -alias-Foster, and included reflections by Police Attaché Patricio Aguayo and Ambassador Diego Paulsen, who honoured Suboficial Mayor Cosme's life, sacrifice and unwavering commitment to public service.

The ceremony also paid tribute to the men and women of Carabineros de Chile, who risk their lives every day to serve and protect communities across Chile.

We extend our deepest condolences to Suboficial Mayor Cosme's wife, family, friends and colleagues, and honour the courage, dedication and service of all those who wear the Carabineros uniform.
