Early life and education

Nadezhda Bravo Cladera was born in Oruro, Bolivia. It was her father that named her Nadezhda which means hope in Russian and has the diminutive "Nadya".[17] [18] [19] Her father Fernando Bravo James (Potosí 1912– La Paz 1962) was a Bolivian politician, senior lecturer at the Universidad Técnica de Oruro and at the Universidad Mayor de San Andrés (UMSA) in La Paz. Her mother Elsa Cladera de Bravo (Oruro 1922– Fribourg 2005) was a Bolivian union leader and educator, leader of the teachers organisation in Bolivia, delegate at the "Asamblea del Pueblo" in 1971, engaged in the work for women's emancipation. Nadezhda has two younger sisters Emma Bolshia and María Alexandra.

She attended the Anglo American School in Oruro and when the family moved to La Paz Hugo Dávila Senior High School where she graduated as Bachelor in Humanities (1961). At the "Instituto Normal Superior Simón Bolivar" in La Paz she became a teacher of English and French languages (1966) for the Senior High School.

After Hugo Banzer's coup d'état (1971) in Bolivia she was imprisoned.[20] Thanks to a scholarship of the French Government, she studied at the University of Franche-Comté in Besançon where she obtained her licence ès lettres de linguistique (1973).

Nadezhda met her husband, Anders Nilsson, at the university of Besançon. "It was love that took her to Sweden".[18] They have two sons: Andrés Fernando and Ernesto Ricardo. In Sweden, she obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree (Filosofie kandidatexamen) (1983) and a Master of Arts degree (Filosofie Magisterexamen) (1997), with a major in Spanish, at the University of Stockholm and her Doctor of Philosophy degree (Filosofie Doktorsexamen) in Romance Languages with a major in Hispanic Linguistics (2004) at the University of Uppsala. "She defended her thesis in Spanish with French guidance".[21]

Work and research

Bravo Cladera's main areas of research are dialogue studies, spontaneous conversations and discourse markers. She has directed the linguistic projects entitled "Spanish of Bilingual Youth of Stockholm" (Español de Jóvenes Bilingües de Estocolmo- EJBE (2005–2016)).[22] [23] [24] Now she directs the projects: "Spanishof Youth of the City of El Alto" (Castellano de Jóvenes de la Ciudad de El ALTO -CASJOCIAL (2017–)) and "Spanish of Children and Youth of the City of La Paz"(Castellano de Niños y Jóvenes de la Ciudad de La Paz- CASNIJOLP ([1999] 2022-)) She is currently a founder member of the project Dialogue Studies at the "Asociación de Lingüística y Filología de América Latina" (ALFAL), Delegate of ALFAL for Belgium, England, Finland, the Netherlands, Iceland, Norway and Sweden (Region Nord Europa),[25] [26] a supervisor (ad-honorem) at the Universidad Mayor de San Andrés (Higher University of San Andrés) in La Paz, Bolivia.

In Bolivia, her pedagogical experience, has to do with young people who had Aimara language or Quechua language as their mother tongue and had learned Spanish at school. She taught them modern languages as English and French. This experience contributed to her interest in problems concerning bilingualism. Later in Sweden, the experience with her sons, who grew up with two languages at home (Swedish and Spanish) increased her interest in research on bilingualism, languages and cultures in contact. For example, the corpus of her doctoral thesis is based on spontaneous conversations of bilingual youth (Spanish, Swedish) in Stockholm.[27]

Bravo Cladera has been senior lecturer in Hispanic linguistics at Linköping University[28] and Gävle University College[29] and lecturer in Hispanic linguistics at the University of Uppsala[30] (1996–2007), where she has supervised more than 40 essays on language themes and even some in literature and economics.[31] [32] [19] At the Stockholm Institute of Education (Lärarhögskolan i Stockholm) and at Högskolan i Eskilstuna Västerås (actually Mälardalen University College) she has been lecturer in Early bilingualism and Children's literatur (1987–1995). She has also taught Spanish as modern language and as mother tongue at Huddinge Senior High School (Huddinge Gymnasiet)[33] and Ingemundskola at Karolinska Institutet (1977–1999).[34] At Huddinge Senior High School she was responsible editor of the school newspaper in Spanish "Periódico Latino". In Bolivia she taught English and French in Senior High Schools (1967–1971) and was lecturer in General Linguistics at the "Instituto Nacional de Estudios Lingûísticos" (INEL)(1971).

She is the author of several monographs and articles on discourse markers, dialogue studies, bilingualism, languages in contact as well as other linguistic and pedagogical themes. She has been publishing manuals for her teaching in Spanish Phonetics, Linguistics and Pragmatics. In 2013 she publishes a biography about Elsa Cladera de Bravo, The purpose of this biography was make known a part of Bolivian history that is worth remembering.[35] [36] [32] [7] [37] [38]
