Download or read book Sarmiento de frente y perfil written by William H. Katra and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1993 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William H. Katra considera la primera obra y tempranas ideas del gran escritor-estadista-educator argentino del siglo pasado, Domingo F. Sarmiento (1811-1888). El contenido de su escrito más importante, Facundo, o civilización y barbarie (1845), revela las pasiones de Sarmiento: literatura, política, análisis histórico y sociológico de su país. Por acto y palabra escrita, Sarmiento fue protagonista en la fundación de aquellas instituciones que harían posible la modernización exitosa de su cultura y nación. En los ensayos aquí reunidos, Katra intenta desentrañar los múltiples hilos ideológicos en esta obra y en el complejo pensamiento del joven Sarmiento antes de emergir como líder regional y nacional.
Book Synopsis Politics of Temporalization by : Nadia R. Altschul
Download or read book Politics of Temporalization written by Nadia R. Altschul and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2020-06-19 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A postcolonial study of the conceptualization of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Latin America as medieval and oriental If Spain and Portugal were perceived as backward in the nineteenth century—still tainted, in the minds of European writers and thinkers, by more than a whiff of the medieval and Moorish—Ibero-America lagged even further behind. Originally colonized in the late fifteenth century, Chile, Argentina, and Brazil were characterized by European travelers and South American elites alike as both feudal and oriental, as if they retained an oriental-Moorish character due to the centuries-long presence of Islam in the Iberian Peninsula. So, Nadia R. Altschul observes, the Scottish metropolitan writer Maria Graham (1785-1842) depicted the Chile in which she found herself stranded after the death of her sea captain husband as a premodern, precapitalist, and orientalized place that could only benefit from the free trade imperialism of the British. Domingo F. Sarmiento (1811-1888), the most influential Latin American writer and statesman of his day, conceived of his own Euro-American creole class as medieval in such works as Civilization and Barbarism: The Life of Juan Facundo Quiroga (1845) and Recollections of a Provincial Past (1850), and wrote of the inherited Moorish character of Spanish America in his 1883 Conflict and Harmony of the Races in America. Moving forward into the first half of the twentieth century, Altschul explores the oriental character that Gilberto Freyre assigned to Portuguese colonization in his The Masters and the Slaves (1933), in which he postulated the "Mozarabic" essence of Brazil. In Politics of Temporalization, Altschul examines the case of South America to ask more broadly what is at stake—what is harmed, what is excused—when the present is temporalized, when elements of "the now" are characterized as belonging to, and consequently imposed upon, a constructed and othered "past."

Book Synopsis José Artigas and the Federal League in Uruguay’s War of Independence (1810–1820) by : William H. Katra
Download or read book José Artigas and the Federal League in Uruguay’s War of Independence (1810–1820) written by William H. Katra and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a history book that studies the thought and actions of José Gervasio Artigas throughout the decade of his prominence (1810 –1820) as leader of the Federal League, which united his native territory of Uruguay to four neighboring provinces in today’s Argentina. This was the period when the Spanish king’s abdication propelled elites across that country’s former American colonies to hastily construct new local institutions to carry on governing functions and to assure order and stability. Within a few years that new leadership had to do battle against the armies sent by Spain’s new leadership that attempted to reassert its control. In the Banda Oriental—today’s Uruguay—Artigas, with democratic and egalitarian values, enjoyed wide support among the rural poor as well as the landed elite. His military victories over the Spanish, and then his successful defense of provincial autonomy before the imperialist ambitions of Buenos Aires, account for the spread of his influence to neighboring provinces and the creation of the Federal League. His short-term successes infuriated powerful elites in both Buenos Aires and the Portuguese colonies of today’s Brazil. These, allied to the newly potent British empire, then collaborated to bring about his defeat. Artigas’ career, as seen in retrospect, was riddled with contradiction and ambiguity, yet his record of achievements is worthy of remembrance and honor. The book provides information, largely ignored by previous historians, about his important dealings with three central figures in Argentina’s independence movement: Generals Manuel Belgrano. Martín Güemes, and José de San Martín.

Book excerpt: Como él mismo Jorge Mañach señala, Perfil de nuestras letras surgió de una sugerencia de la dirección del periódico Diario de la Marina, para que comenzase a redactar una serie de artículos en los cuales desarrollara algún tema continuo. Entre febrero de 1947 y octubre de 1948 publicó 34 trabajos, que siempre salían en la edición dominical y en la página de Opinión (esto último solo se alteró en una ocasión). Al cabo de casi ocho años, en mayo de 1956 decidió continuar la serie "por algún tiempo más". Lo hizo hasta comienzos de agosto de ese año. En esta segunda entrega, la serie mantuvo el espacio dominical hasta fines de junio, cuando pasó a salir indistintamente miércoles, jueves o viernes. Asimismo desde mayo redujo el nombre a Nuestras letras. Edición a cargo de: Carlos Espinosa.
