Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The rendering and memory of the Paraguayan War was from its very beginning a conflictive endeavor. What historians have called the "first modern war" in the region was an overwhelming experience that defied its protagonists' ability to reconcile its violence with the ideals of an incipient national identity. It was also one of the first photographed conflicts worldwide, which, on the one hand, provided new access to the war experience to an extended audience, and, on the other, zeroed in on the voids and silences of the representations of the war. In this essay, I first study the unease in depicting and remembering the conflict, focusing on press coverage and José Ignacio Garmendia's memories. I then pause at some of the photographs taken by the studio Bate & Ca. and reflect on their power to disturb, move, and evoke the violence of war. I argue that these are images that demand an active gaze, calling on the viewer to complete that which is not being shown"--

This book was released on 2022-12-08 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American Literature in Transition 1800-1870 uses affect as an analytical tool to uncover the countervailing forces that shaped Latin American literatures and cultures during the first six decades of the nineteenth century. Chapters provide perspectives on colonial violence and its representation, on the development of the national idea, on communities within and beyond the nation, and on the intersectional development of subjectivity during and after processes of cultural and political independence. This volume includes interdisciplinary approaches to nineteenth-century Latin American cultures that range from visual and art history to historiography to comparative literature and the study of literary and popular print culture. This book engages with the complex and sometimes counterintuitive relationship between felt ideas of community and the political changes that shaped these affective networks and communities.

Download or read book Latin American Literature in Transition 1870–1930 written by Fernando Degiovanni and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-08 with total page 711 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American Literature in Transition 1870-1930 examines how the circulation of goods, people, and ideas permeated every aspect of the continent's cultural production at the end of the nineteenth century. It analyzes the ways in which rapidly transforming technological and labour conditions contributed to forging new intellectual networks, exploring innovative forms of knowledge, and reimagining the material and immaterial worlds. This volume shows the new directions in turn-of-the-century scholarship that developed over the last two decades by investigating how the experience of capitalism produced an array of works that deal with primitive accumulation, transnational crossings, and an emerging technological and material reality in diverse geographies and a variety of cultural forms. Essays provide a novel understanding of the period as they discuss the ways in which particular commodities, intellectual networks, popular uprisings, materialities, and non-metropolitan locations redefined cultural production at a time when the place of Latin America in global affairs was significantly transformed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume explores how the circulation of goods, people, and ideas permeated every aspect of the continent's cultural production at the turn of the century. We are interested not only in understanding how literature and the arts confronted the unprecedented penetration of global capital in Latin America, but also in exploring the ways in which rapidly transforming technological and labor conditions contributed to forging new intellectual networks, creating original discourses, exploring innovative forms of knowledge, and reimagining the material and immaterial worlds. This volume shows the new directions in turn-of-the-century scholarship that developed over the last two decades by investigating how the experience of capitalism produced an array of works that deal with primitive accumulation, transnational crossings, and an emerging technological and material reality in diverse geographies and a variety of cultural forms. The various contributions provide a novel understanding of the period as they discuss the ways in which particular commodities, intellectual networks, popular uprisings, materialities, and non-metropolitan locations redefined cultural production at a time when the place of Latin America in global affairs was significantly transformed"--
Book Synopsis Latin American Literature in Transition Pre-1492–1800 by : Rocío Quispe-Agnoli
Download or read book Latin American Literature in Transition Pre-1492–1800 written by Rocío Quispe-Agnoli and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-08 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 1492 invokes many instances of transition in a variety of ways that intersected, overlapped, and shaped the emergence of Latin America. For the diverse Native inhabitants of the Americas as well as the people of Europe, Africa, and Asia who crossed the Atlantic and Pacific as part of the early-modern global movements, their lived experiences were defined by transitions. The Iberian territories from approximately 1492-1800 extended from what is now the US Southwest to Tierra del Fuego, and from the Iberian coasts to the Philippines and China. Built around six thematic areas that underline key processes that shaped the colonial period and its legacies – space, body, belief systems, literacies, languages, and identities – this innovative volume goes beyond the traditional European understanding of the lettered canon. It examines a range of texts including books published in Europe and the New World and manuscripts stored in repositories around the globe that represent poetry, prose, judicial proceedings, sermons, letters, grammars, and dictionaries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume brings together a fine collection of essays that examine an ample and rich gamut of transitions in more than three hundred years of colonial Latin American literary, visual and performance texts. Once called "the empire where the sun does not set," the Spanish-and Portuguese-territories extended from what is now the US Southwest to Tierra del Fuego at the most southern point of the American continent, and from the Iberian coasts to the Philippines and China. The Iberian territory between 1492 and 1800 was transatlantic, transpacific, and hemispheric. This volume brings together a group of literary and interdisciplinary scholars from multiple continents, experts each of them in this geography and time period that spans such extraordinary breadth. Their contributions are part of a collective reflection on transitions in colonial Latin American literature"--

Book Synopsis Latin American Literature in Transition, 1930-1980 by : Amanda Holmes
Download or read book Latin American Literature in Transition, 1930-1980 written by Amanda Holmes and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A series of wars and revolutions provide the fiery, unsettled bedrock for mid-twentieth-century Latin American literature: on a global scale, World War II and the Cold War mar political alliances; the Cuban Revolution, Peronist Argentina, and the 1968 student movements are some of the regional responses that develop from these international conflicts. Latching onto a transforming world, authors in this era appropriate the discomfort of transition to produce literary works of international acclaim. Mid-century Latin American literature has been framed as a market-driven phenomenon that opened the region up through an exoticization that captured international recognition. This volume takes a different approach, one that rests uncomfortably on a deep political instability - worldwide as well as regional - that is engaged aesthetically by literary authors. It argues that the literature of mid-century Latin America locates its strength within global and regional political conflicts, as well as from within the cultural and social tensions spurred on by economic disparities"--

Book Synopsis The Global South and Literature by : Russell West-Pavlov
Download or read book The Global South and Literature written by Russell West-Pavlov and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'Global South' has largely supplanted the 'Third World' in discussions of development studies, postcolonial studies, world literature and comparative literature respectively. The concept registers a new set of relationships between nations of the once colonized world as their connections to nations of the North diminish in significance. Such relationships register particularly clearly in contemporary cultural theory and literary production. The Global South and Literature explores the historical, cultural and literary applications of the term for twenty-first-century flows of transnational cultural influence, tracing their manifestations across the Global Southern traditions of Africa, Asia and Latin America. This collection of interdisciplinary contributions examines the origins, development and applications of this emergent term, employed at the nexus of the critical social sciences and developments in literary humanities and cultural studies. This book will be a key resource for students, graduates and researchers working in the field of postcolonial studies and world literature.
