Book Synopsis Gauchos and Foreigners by : Ariana Huberman
Download or read book Gauchos and Foreigners written by Ariana Huberman and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2010-12-29 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Gauchos and Foreigners: Glossing Culture and Identity in the Argentine Countryside Ariana Huberman discusses the relationship between the gaucho figure and the 'foreigner' in Argentine rural literature. The narratives of William Henry Hudson, Benito Lynch and Alberto Gerchunoff present English scientists and travelers, as well as Jewish and Italian immigrants, in direct contact with the gaucho in the Argentine and Uruguayan countryside. The book shows how the intent to define and translate terms from the national glossary the gaucho, his lifestyle and habitat and from 'foreign' cultures, ultimately questions these terms' capacity to represent a specific culture. It traces a series of writing practices that challenge the concepts of 'native' and 'foreign' as stable categories of representation by conveying identity and culture across multiple linguistic, social and cultural registers. The reading of these unique practices of translation hopes to offer a fresh approach to the multicultural scope of Argentine literature.

These five astonishing stories, along with two compelling essays, show Bolano as a magician, pulling bloodthirsty rabbits out of his hat.

Book Synopsis The Gaucho Martín Fierro by : Jose Hernandez
Download or read book The Gaucho Martín Fierro written by Jose Hernandez and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1974-06-30 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a poem of protest drawn from the life of the gaucho, who was forced to yield his freedom and individuality to the social and material changes that invaded his beloved pampas--a protest which arose from years of abuse and neglect suffered from landowners, militarists, and the Argentine political establishment. This poem, composed and first published more than a century ago, could have been written today by spokesmen for other oppressed groups in other parts of the world. For this reason, perhaps, the poem has such universal appeal that it has been translated into nineteen languages, making it available to more than half of the world's people. Hernandez's poem was an attempt to alert the government, and particularly the city dwellers, to the problems faced by the gaucho minority in adjusting to the new, unfamiliar culture imposed on them by the Central Government soon after the fall of the dictator Juan Manuel de Rosas in 1852, under the slogan "Politics of Progress." Moreover, the poem supplied a historical link to the gauchos' contribution to the national development of Argentina, for the gaucho had performed a major role in the country's independence from Spain. They had also fought in the civil wars of Argentina and had cleared the pampas of marauding Indian bands that plagued the pastoral development of the region. According to Hernandes they had been by turns abused, neglected, and finally dispersed, ultimately losing their identity as a social group. Those interested in the Martín Fierro as literature, as social protest, as anthropology, or as an example of the annihilation of a minority group--and its very identity--have joined in making it the most widely read, analyzed, and discussed literary work produced in Argentina. Now, after several hundred editions in Spanish and other languages, Martín Fierro is recognized as a masterpiece of world literature. The aim of this English version has been to achieve a line-by-line rendition faithful to the original in substance and tone, but without attempting to recreate Hernandez's meter or rhyme. The translators present it here as a catalyst for enjoyment, provocation, and insight.

Download or read book Gauchos written by René Burri and published by Distributed Art Pub Incorporated. This book was released on 1994 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new, redesigned edition of Burri's acclaimed The Gaucho, published in 1968, includes a beautifully written foreword by celebrated Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges, a revised text by Jose Luis Lanuza on the history and culture of gauchos, and a new afterword by the photographer. Burri takes us into a world rarely seen by outsiders, documenting its historical riches and its awkward place in the modern world. His images of a dying tradition are lyrical and incisive. Through his lens, we see the authentic gaucho, in characteristic vest, hat, and scarf, driving cattle through stark plains, twirling his lasso, branding colts, drinking mate, taking a meditative smoke. "His ethnic definition", writes Borges in his introduction, "seems superfluous: a casual son of forgotten conquistadores and settlers, sometimes he had Indian blood or Negro blood - other times he was white. No matter; to be a gaucho was a destiny".
