This book was released on 2014-03-19 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Once again I repeat that I am not an impartial; objective critic. My judgments are nourished by my ideals, my sentiments, my passions. I have an avowed and resolute ambition: to assist in the creation of Peruvian socialism. I am far removed from the academic techniques of the university."—From the Author's Note Jose Carlos Mariátegui was one of the leading South American social philosophers of the early twentieth century. He identified the future of Peru with the welfare of the Indian at a time when similar ideas were beginning to develop in Middle America and the Andean region. Generations of Peruvian and other Latin American social thinkers have been profoundly influenced by his writings. Seven Interpretive Essays on Peruvian Reality (Siete ensayos de interpretación de la realidad peruana), first published in 1928, is Mariátegui's major statement of his position and has gone into many editions, not only in Peru but also in other Latin American countries. The topics discussed in the essays—economic evolution, the problem of the Indian, the land problem, public education, the religious factor, regionalism and centralism, and the literary process—are in many respects as relevant today as when the book was written. Mariátegui's thinking was strongly tinged with Marxism. Because contemporary sociology, anthropology, and economics have been influenced by Marxism much more in Latin America than in North America, it is important that North Americans become more aware of Mariátegui's position and accord it its proper historical significance. Jorge Basadre, the distinguished Peruvian historian, in an introduction written especially for this translation, provides an account of Mariátegui's life and describes the political and intellectual climate in which these essays were written.

Book Synopsis José Carlos Mariátegui: An Anthology by : Harry E. E. Vanden Vanden
Download or read book José Carlos Mariátegui: An Anthology written by Harry E. E. Vanden Vanden and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: José Carlos Mariátegui is one of Latin America’s most profound but overlooked thinkers. A self-taught journalist, social scientist, and activist from Peru, he was the first to emphasize that those fighting for the revolutionary transformation of society must adapt classical Marxist theory to the particular conditions of Latin American. He also stressed that indigenous peoples must take an active, if not leading, role in any revolutionary struggle. Today Latin America is the scene of great social upheaval. More progressive governments are in power than ever before, and grassroots movements of indigenous peoples, workers, and peasants are increasingly shaping the political landscape. The time is perfect for a rediscovery of Mariátegui, who is considered an intellectual precursor of today’s struggles in Latin America but virtually unknown in the English-speaking world. This volume collects his essential writings, including many that have never been translated and some that have never been published. The scope of this collection, masterful translation, and thoughtful commentary make it an essential book for scholars of Latin America and all of those fighting for a new world, waiting to be born.

Book Synopsis Selected Works of José Carlos Mariátegui by : Christian Noakes
Download or read book Selected Works of José Carlos Mariátegui written by Christian Noakes and published by Iskra Books. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: José Carlos Mariátegui was born in Moquegua, Peru, to a poor mestizo family on July 14, 1894. Considered by many to be the father of Latin American Communism, he is celebrated for being the first person to utilize Marxist methods of analysis in order to better understand concrete reality in Peru and for carving a path to revolution based off of these particular historical conditions. As such, he was one of the first Latin American socialists to acknowledge the revolutionary potential of the peasantry and Indigenous peoples. Rather than take a paternalistic or humanitarian position, Mariátegui believed that these overlapping groups needed to be the architects of their own liberation and to do so using their own cultural knowledge, experience, and language.

Book excerpt: "Brilliant and beautiful. Now this book exists, it’s hard to know how we did without it." –China Miéville, author of October A cultural and intellectual balance-sheet of the twentieth century's age of revolutions This book reinterprets the history of nineteenth and twentieth-century revolutions by composing a constellation of "dialectical images": Marx's "locomotives of history," Alexandra Kollontai's sexually liberated bodies, Lenin's mummified body, Auguste Blanqui's barricades and red flags, the Paris Commune's demolition of the Vendome Column, among several others. It connects theories with the existential trajectories of the thinkers who elaborated them, by sketching the diverse profiles of revolutionary intellectuals--from Marx and Bakunin to Luxemburg and the Bolsheviks, from Mao and Ho Chi Minh to José Carlos Mariátegui, C.L.R. James, and other rebellious spirits from the South--as outcasts and pariahs. And finally, it analyzes the entanglement between revolution and communism that so deeply shaped the history of the twentieth century. This book thus merges ideas and representations by devoting an equal importance to theoretical and iconographic sources, offering for our troubled present a new intellectual history of the revolutionary past.

Book Synopsis Dance in the Cemetery by : William W. Stein
Download or read book Dance in the Cemetery written by William W. Stein and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1997 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a biographical study of Jose Carlos Mariategui, one of Latin America's greatest literary figures, which is organized around the Lima scandal of 1917. At the time he was a young journalist of 23, an autodidact intellectual with an insurrectionary character. The scandal erupted when he led a small group to the General Cemetery where a dancer gave her interpretation of Chopin's Funeral March. Although the participants wished to have an artistic experience, the reaction of the Lima elite was negative: the performance was viewed in terms of "lewdness" and "desecration," the participants were arrested, placed in prison, their case was forwarded for criminal prosecution, and the daily newspapers made the most out of the incident. This study focuses on the scandal in the context of Peruvian society in 1917. It examines the roots of Mariategui's rebellion by exploring his manner of dealing with lameness and physical mutilation, the desertion of his family by his father and Mariategui's search for a father figure, his humble Andean roots on his mother's side, and his ambivalence--half yearning, half hostility--toward his father's elite social sector. Throughout the work Mariategui's writings are quoted as illustrations and supplements to points made in the text. The object is to answer the questions: Why a dance? Why a cemetery? And why a dance in a cemetery?--by looking at patterns of repetition in Mariategui's life. The study becomes a psychobiography as well as a literary one.
Book Synopsis Mariátegui and Latin American Marxist Theory by : Marc Becker
Download or read book Mariátegui and Latin American Marxist Theory written by Marc Becker and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: José Carlos Mariátegui, the Peruvian political theorist of the 1920s, was instrumental in developing an indigenous Latin American revolutionary Marxist theory. He rejected a rigid, orthodox interpretation of Marxism and applied his own creative elements, which he believed could move a society to revolutionary action without the society having to depend upon more traditional economic factors. His interpretation of Peruvian history had a profound effect upon subsequent social movements throughout Latin America. This volume reviews the essential elements of Mariátegui's thought and important influences on his intellectual development. It demonstrates the role he played in defining a Latin american identity, the nature of his intellectual contribution to the development of indigenous revolutionary movements in Latin America, and the inflluence he had on successful revolutionary movements in Cuba and Nicaragua. An understanding of Mariátegui's thought is fundamental to understanding the nature of revolutionary changes in Latin America.

This book was released on 2016-01-04 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: José Carlos Mariátegui, (1895-1930), fue un escritor Peruano y líder político de renombre mundial. Aunque sus origines son humildes, su carrera lo llevo a las más altura de la intelectualidad. Comenzando a trabajar a los 14 años de edad -como alcanza-rejones en un periódico- llegó a ser periodista de los principales diarios de Lima: La Prensa, El Tiempo, y La Razón. Autodidacta, pronto llego a convencerse que la doctrina marxista era la adecuada para sacar a su patria del marasmo social, económico, cultural, y espiritual que lo condenaba a una abyecta pobreza. Sus viajes por Europa, le confirmaron su fe en el marxismo. Cuando regreso al Perú, junto con el pensador y activista político Víctor Raúl Haya de la Torre (fundador del partido APRA), ambos asumieron el liderazgo político de los años 1920s. Acerca de los Siete ensayos Estos ensayos calan profundo, dado el enfoque marxista muy poco asimilado -por entonces- en las letras de Sudamérica. Los Siete Ensayos tocan la urdimbre nerviosa del Perú, auscultando síntomas, analizando curas paliativas y muchas veces erróneas, para al fin dejar en claro que aunque las soluciones son inconclusas, por lo menos podrían dar un impulso a la mejoría del país. Los problemas que Mariátegui trata son: 1) Esquema de la evolución económica; 2) El problema del indio; 3) El problema de la tierra; 4) El proceso de la instrucción pública; 5) El factor religioso; 6) Regionalismo y centralismo; y 7) El proceso de la literatura.
