Book Synopsis Revolution in the Street by : Andrew Grant Wood
Download or read book Revolution in the Street written by Andrew Grant Wood and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2001 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 1999 Michael C. Meyer Manuscript Prize! This new book examines the social protests of popular groups in urban Mexico during and after the Mexican Revolution and also shows how the revolution inspired women to become activists in these movements. Andrew Grant Wood's well-researched narrative focuses specifically on the complex negotiation between elites and popular groups over the issue of public housing in post-revolutionary Veracruz, Mexico. Wood then compares the Veracruz experience with other tenant movements throughout Mexico and Latin America. He analyzes what the popular groups wanted, what they got, how they got it, and how the changes wrought by the revolution facilitated their actions. Grassroots organizing by house-renters in Veracruz began at a time of 'multiple sovereignty' when ruling elites found themselves in a process of regime change and political realignment. As the movement took shape, tenants expanded their opportunities through a dynamic repertoire of public demonstration, direct action, networking, and constant negotiation with landlords and public officials. During the height of the movement, protesters forced revolutionary elites to respond by requiring them either to negotiate, co-opt, and/or repress members of independent grassroots organizations in order to maintain their rule. The tenant movements demonstrate how ordinary women and men contributed to the remaking of state and civil society relations in post-revolutionary Mexico. This book analyzes the critical roles that women played as leaders and as rank-and-file agitators to keep the movements alive. The author has used a wide variety of primary sources to provide a vibrant portrayal of these urban social protesters. On a larger scale, this book shows that the voices of the urban poor were able to become part of the revolutionary dialogue and ideology. While others have highlighted the role of rural folk such as the Zapatistas, this work allows readers to appreciate the urban side of the po

Book Synopsis Latin American Popular Culture Since Independence by : William H. Beezley
Download or read book Latin American Popular Culture Since Independence written by William H. Beezley and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique reader offers an engaging collection of essays that highlight the diversity of Latin America's cultural expressions from independence to the present. Exploring such themes and events as funerals, dance and music, letters and literature, spectacles and monuments, and world's fairs and food, a group of leading historians examines the ways that a wide range of individuals with copious, at times contradictory, motives attempted to forge identity, turn the world upside down, mock their betters, forget their troubles through dance, express love in letters, and altogether enjoy life. The authors analyze case studies from Argentina, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, and Trinidad-Tobago, tracing as well how their examples resonate in the rest of the region. They show how people could and did find opportunities to escape, if only occasionally, their daily drudgery, making lives for themselves of greater variety than the constant quest for dominance, drive for profits, orknee-jerk resistance to the social or economic order so often described in cultural studies. Instead, this rich text introduces the complexity of motives behind and the diversity of expressions of popular culture in Latin America.

Book Synopsis Miradas Transatlánticas by : Alicia Rita Rueda-Acedo
Download or read book Miradas Transatlánticas written by Alicia Rita Rueda-Acedo and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voces de mujeres han sido sistemáticamente silenciado o se omite por completo cuando una nación se reúne su narrativa histórica. En Miradas Transatlánticas: El periodismo literario de Elena Poniatowska y Rosa Montero, Alicia Rita Rueda-Acedo examina la relación entre la obra periodística y literaria de los dos escritores con nombre en el título, ya que utilizan una combinación distinta del periodismo y la ficción para crear nuevos espacios donde las voces y experiencias de las mujeres pueden estar situados prominente en las narraciones históricas de sus naciones. Rueda-Acedo analiza las obras de los dos escritores desde las perspectivas de género y los estudios de género, la ampliación de la noción de género de la tradición literaria y su aplicación a la producción periodística. Cada uno de los capítulos replantea y revisa el concepto de los géneros literarios con el argumento para la inclusión de la entrevista, el reportaje, el artículo, y la crónica en la categoría de literatura. En su estudio de Las siete cabritas por Poniatowska y Historias de mujeres por Montero, Rueda-Acedo argumenta con éxito que se trata de obras de homenaje a las mujeres que han influido en la historia. Al interpretar y subvertir los modelos patriarcales, los escritores llaman la atención sobre las formas en que las mujeres se han involucrado la historia mexicana, española y universal. Rueda-Acedo se centra en las características de la entrevista periodística y propone su interpretación como un texto literario. También se propone una poética de este género. El estudio de Rueda-Acedo explora cómo Poniatowska y Montero representan a las mujeres que han marcado la historia como parte de la agenda feminista de que los dos escritores han promovido en su producción periodística y literaria. El libro también hace hincapié en el papel de los dos escritores como investigadores y críticos y profundiza el debate animado sobre la relación entre la literatura y el periodismo que se discute actualmente en ambos lados del Atlántico. Women's voices routinely have been muted or omitted entirely when a nation assembles its historical narrative. In Miradas Transatlánticas: El periodismo literario de Elena Poniatowska y Rosa Montero, Alicia Rita Rueda-Acedo examines the relationship between the journalistic and literary work of the two writers named in the title as they utilize a distinct combination of journalism and fiction to create new spaces where women's voices and experiences may be situated prominently in their nations' historical narratives. Rueda-Acedo analyzes the works of the two writers from the perspectives of both gender and genre studies, extending the notion of genre from the literary tradition and applying it to journalistic production. Each of the chapters rethinks and revises the concept of literary genres by arguing for the inclusion of the interview, the reportage, the article, and the chronicle within the category of literature. In her study of Las siete cabritas by Poniatowska and Historias de mujeres by Montero, Rueda-Acedo argues successfully that these are works of homage to women who have influenced history. By interpreting and subverting patriarchal models, the writers draw attention to the ways in which women have engaged Mexican, Spanish, and Universal history. Rueda-Acedo focuses on the characteristics of the journalistic interview and proposes its interpretation as a literary text. A poetics of this genre is also proposed. Rueda-Acedo's study explores how Poniatowska and Montero represent women who have marked history as part of the feminist agenda that the two writers have promoted in their journalistic and literary production. The book also emphasizes the role of the two writers as researchers and critics and deepens the vibrant debate about the relationship between literature and journalism currently being discussed on both sides of the Atlantic.
