Tonguas Magazine Informational page for UPRRP's student literary and artistic expression magazine, Tonguas.

Tonguas is a literary journal edited as part of ENGL 3037-The Role of the Literary Magazine in Contemporary Literary Production. Although it originated in the English Department of the Humanities Faculty of the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras, participants include students from all faculties and writers from the larger community. The title “Tonguas” combines “tongues” and “lenguas,” indicat

ing the open, multilingual, and inclusive nature of the group’s activities, “idiomas,” and aesthetics. Tonguas begins with the premise that Spanish is at the heart of Puerto Rican identity.
