The West University of Timișoara is honored to announce that one of the prizes awarded by the Timișoara Branch of the Romanian Writers' Union for the editorial year 2019 was awarded to the writer Cristina Chevereșan, for the volume "Pilgrims immediately", published at Brumar Publishing House in 2019. Vice-rector of UVT starting this academic year, the laureate is an important representative of Timișoara philological studies and an example of the involvement of our university in the life of the community.

In the award-winning volume and accompanied by the presentation of the teacher and writer Adriana Babeți, the author states: "Divided between fiction and non-fiction, the writings that caught my attention can be found in the collection in the strict order of the publication of the chronicles, taking into account not only the "hot" reactions at the time, but also the personal journey between texts, contexts, pretexts for reflection. The first encounters on the page with some writers sit alongside the discoveries of others, in different poses, eras or perspectives".

Univ. Assoc. skilled dr. Cristina Chevereșan teaches American literature and civilization courses at the Faculty of Letters, Theology and History of the West University in Timișoara and is the Vice-Chancellor responsible for the internationalization and diaspora strategy.
