Dr. Blašković specializes in Medieval Iberian Literature and Culture, although her research and teaching interests include post-1492 developments and Mexico around 1800, as well as their modern-day representations. Much of her work is linked by an interest in storytelling, narrative violence, cultural memory, and identity construction, as they intertwine with the notions of power, knowledge, space, and gender.
Following a four-year diploma program at the University of Belgrade, Serbia, she moved to Austria, where she completed the M.A. and Ph.D. studies (Romance/Spanish Philology) with highest honors at the University of Vienna. In her monograph Los potenciales polifónicos: la nobleza del Cantar de Mio Cid (Iberoamericana/ Vervuert, 2020), she provides a contextualized yet innovative reading of the oldest preserved Castilian epic poem.
As a postdoctoral associate at the University of Vienna (2019–2022), she conceptualized a project on women in Iberian historiography to be explored via digital methods, for which she was awarded the Catalan Beatriu de Pinós Fellowship (2022–2023) and the European Commission’s Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions Individual Fellowship (2023–2025). The two fellowships gave her a remarkable mobility which led to solid and diverse research networks that span across continents, fields, and methodologies.
Following her stay as a Visiting Medieval Fellow at Fordham (2022–2023), she published an online database of medieval women which was voted among top eight educational resources in 2025 by the Princeton-led initiative “Middle Ages for Educators.”
Fluent in four languages, Dr. Blašković has ample teaching experience, from introductory and exercise-based transepochal courses on Spanish/Hispanic Literature and Media to data-driven approaches in the Humanities. Passionate about strengthening the relationship between education and cultural heritage, she has served as a jury member for high school and undergraduate projects, has co-organized two international conferences in collaboration with the cultural sector, and has organized numerous workshops on textual analysis, academic writing, and digital literacy. In 2025, she spent six months at the Foundation Ignacio Larramendi, a Spanish heritage-digitization pioneer. Ever since 2024, she has been contributing to Brown’s community-centered project on Indigenous slavery “Stolen Relations.”
