Book excerpt: After publishing fourteen books of poetry, Rudy Caldern introduces a collection of poetry that compiles the very best of his published poetry as well as introduces the reader to his more recent work. Known for his impassioned deliveries at poetry readings, Caldern has been invited to and read at legendary poetry spots like the Nuyorican Poets Caf and the Bowery Poetry Club in New York City as well as in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and throughout the Central Coast of California. Having published a good majority of his work in the Spanish language, this book allows the public to enjoy those poems for the first time in the English language and in-so-doing the reader will understand the level of commitment and reverence Caldern has given to this sacred art in general and to his Mexican-American and Latino sensibilities in particular. Moreover, the poetry community will be able to take-in the cultural, literary, and historical richness found in Calderns work as they observe a poet who has worked tirelessly and with an unrelenting devotion in his pursuit to lay bare the deep riches of the Mexican-American experience.

Book excerpt: True artists are defined by the scope and depth of their work as a measurement of their works value. Caldern here takes the leap of faith to continue chiseling away at the sacred vocation of verse. He has proven to be unrelenting in this pursuit. A philosopher-poet by nature, Calderns fourteenth book brings together poemas and songs to impart his worldview as a man of letters. His strong grasp of the English and Spanish languages allows him to move back and forth with ease and speak to the present and posterity in languages that would have made Shakespeare and Cervantes applaud his literary ingenuity. The first part of the 21st century is, indeed, observing one of the most prolific and enduring American poets that has given the English and Spanish speaking world an extensive array of writings to be enjoyed and analyzed by todays society and generations not yet come. Los artistas verdaderos son definidos por el alcance y profundidad de sus obras para rendir una medida de sus escrituras. Caldern aqu toma el salto de fe para coninuar tallano sobre la sagrada vocacin a los versos. Rudy Caldern ha comprobado ser implacable en este bsqueda. Un poeta filosfico por naturaleza, el decimocuarto libro une poemas y canciones para impartir su cosmovisin como un hombre de letras. Su entendimiento del ingls y espaol permite que fluya facilmente para hablar con el presente y la posteridad en idiomas que hubieran hecho que Shakespeare y Cervantes aplaudieran su ingeniosidad literaria. La primer parte del siglo veintiuo est, en verdad, observando uno de los ms prolificos y durareros poetas americanos quien ha dado al los hablantes del ingls y espaol una extensa coleccin de obras para ser disfrutados y anlizados por la sociedad de hoy y las generaciones que todava no han llegado.

Book excerpt: Uses cultural representations to investigate how two religious minority communities came to be incorporated into the Mexican nation. Liminal Sovereignty examines the lives of two religious minority communities in Mexico, Mennonites and Mormons, as seen through Mexican culture. Mennonites emigrated from Canada to Mexico from the 1920s to the 1940s, and Mormons emigrated from the United States in the 1880s, left in 1912, and returned in the 1920s. Rebecca Janzen focuses on representations of these groups in film, television, online comics, photography, and legal documents. Janzen argues that perceptions of Mennonites and Mormonsgroups on the margins and borders of Mexican societyillustrate broader trends in Mexican history. The government granted both communities significant exceptions to national laws to encourage them to immigrate; she argues that these foreshadow what is today called the Mexican state of exception. The groups inclusion into the Mexican nation shows that post-Revolutionary Mexico was flexible with its central tenets of land reform and building a mestizo race. Janzen uses minority communities at the periphery to give us a new understanding of the Mexican nation. This subject matter has never been studied in this fashion before, nor with such theoretical sophistication. Not only is the book compelling, but its also illuminating. Pedro A.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John A. Crow, a leading Hispanist, has culled the best translations available--by such poets as Richard Franshawe, Edward Fitzgerald, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, William Cullen Bryant, Robert Southey, and many distinguished modern poets--of poems ranging from the eleventh century to the present to make this the most complete collection of both Spanish and Spanish American poetry in English translation. Represented here is work by such twentieth century poets as Gabriela Mistral, Octavio Paz, Federico García Lorca, César Vallejo, Pablo Neruda, Anotnio Machado, and Juan Ramón Jiménez, many of whom the editor has known personally. The inclusion of many contemporary poets whose verse has never before appeared in English makes this anthology a particularly valuable collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Honorable Mention, 2021 LASA Mexico Humanities Book Prize, Latin American Studies Association, Mexico Section In the sixteenth century, the Franciscan friar Bernardino de Sahagún and a team of indigenous grammarians, scribes, and painters completed decades of work on an extraordinary encyclopedic project titled General History of the Things of New Spain, known as the Florentine Codex (1575–1577). Now housed in the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana in Florence and bound in three lavishly illustrated volumes, the codex is a remarkable product of cultural exchange in the early Americas. In this edited volume, experts from multiple disciplines analyze the manuscript’s bilingual texts and more than 2,000 painted images and offer fascinating, new insights on its twelve books. The contributors examine the “three texts” of the codex—the original Nahuatl, its translation into Spanish, and its painted images. Together, these constitute complementary, as well as conflicting, voices of an extended dialogue that occurred in and around Mexico City. The volume chapters address a range of subjects, from Nahua sacred beliefs, moral discourse, and natural history to the Florentine artists’ models and the manuscript’s reception in Europe. The Florentine Codex ultimately yields new perspectives on the Nahua world several decades after the fall of the Aztec empire.

Download or read book Bilingual Language Acquisition written by Carmen Silva-Corvalán and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-06 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do children develop bilingual competence? Do bilingual children develop language in the same way as monolinguals? Set in the context of findings on language development, this book examines the acquisition of English and Spanish by two brothers in the first six years of their lives. Based on in-depth and meticulous analyses of naturalistic data, it explores how the systems of both languages affect each other as the children develop, and how different levels of exposure to each language influence the nature of acquisition. The author demonstrates that the children's grammars and lexicons follow a developmental path similar to that of monolinguals, but that cross-linguistic interactions affecting lexical, semantic and discourse-pragmatic aspects arise in Spanish when exposure to it diminishes around the age of four. The first of its kind, this original study is a must-read for students and researchers in bilingualism, child development, language acquisition and language contact.

Download or read book Female Amerindians in Early Modern Spanish Theater written by Gladys Robalino and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-20 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Female Amerindians in Early Modern Spanish Theater is a collection of essays that focuses on the female Amerindian characters in comedias based on the discovery, exploration, and conquest of America. This book emerges as a response to the limited number of studies that focus on these characters, and more importantly, on the function of these characters as theatrical artifacts within conquest plays. Conquest plays are about a handful, their heroes are the European male conquerors, yet ‘the Amerindian’ has attracted attention from critics for the value as constructs of cultural discourse. We see this character, the ‘theatrical Indian,’ as a construct, an instrument, in many ways, a spectacular artifact of the baroque tramoya, which emerges from the conversion point of the Counterreformation ideology. It has been our purpose here to advance the study of these characters by adding a gender perspective. Therefore, while sociological and cultural studies are still a fundamental part of the theoretical framework of this project, we use feminism as a critical matrix in our inquiries. Amerindian female characters stand apart from male Amerindians and Spanish women in dramas, which, we believe, make them worthy of individual attention. The articles in this collection delineate different representations of Amerindian women and, as a whole, this book contributes to a better understanding of the dramatic use of these characters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This prize-winning study examines the historical interplay of racial identity, nationality, and family formation in Cuba from the 18th century to today. Since the 19th century, there have been two opposing perspectives on Cuban racial identity: one that frames Cubans as white, and one that sees them as racially mixed based on acceptance of African descent. For the past two centuries, these competing views of have remained in continuous tension, while Cuban women and men make their own racially oriented decisions about choosing partners and family formation. Cuba’s Racial Crucible explores the historical dynamics of Cuban race relations by highlighting the role race has played in reproductive practices and genealogical memories associated with family formation. Karen Y. Morrison reads archival, oral-history, and literary sources to demonstrate the ideological centrality and inseparability of "race," "nation," and "family," in definitions of Cuban identity. Morrison also analyzes the conditions that supported the social advance and decline of notions of white racial superiority, nationalist projections of racial hybridity, and pride in African descent.

This book was released on 2022-03-24 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of Comentarios reales and La Florida del Inca, now recognized as key foundational works of Latin American literature and historiography, Inca Garcilaso de la Vega was born in 1539 in Cuzco, the son of a Spanish conquistador and an Incan princess, and later moved to Spain. Recalling the family stories and myths he had heard from his Quechua-speaking relatives during his youth and gathering information from friends who had remained in Peru, he created works that have come to indelibly shape our understanding of Incan history and administration. He also articulated a new American identity, which he called mestizo. This volume provides guidance on the translations of Garcilaso's writings and on the scholarly reception of his ideas. Instructors will discover ideas for teaching Garcilaso's works in relation to indigenous thought, European historiography, natural history, indigenous religion and Christianity, and Incan material culture. In essays informed by postcolonial and decolonial perspectives, scholars draw connections between Garcilaso's writings and contemporary issues like migration, multiculturalism, and indigenous rights.
