Book excerpt: La historia de un aprendizaje vital. La historia de una mujer que se siente extranjera y aprende a conocerse a sí misma. La protagonista de esta historia –la propia autora– se siente extranjera por varios motivos: es hija de padres mudos, lo cual la apartó del mundo «normal»; desciende de una familia de emigrantes que salieron de Italia rumbo a Estados Unidos y nació en Brooklyn, en un país extranjero. Después, cuando con seis años regresó a Italia con su madre al pueblo de la familia, fue extranjera en su país de origen, por no haber nacido allí, y sigue siéndolo cuando decide marcharse a vivir a Londres. Este es un libro sobre el pasado y el presente; sobre la familia; sobre unos padres de origen humilde que vivieron un matrimonio tormentoso que acabó en divorcio (según la leyenda familiar, la madre había conocido al padre salvándolo de un suicidio); sobre una infancia complicada y una adolescencia solitaria marcada por la literatura; sobre la necesidad de descubrirse a una misma mediante una educación vital y cultural... Las páginas de este volumen son un mapa de experiencias, emociones, lenguas y también lugares, una geografía definida por cuatro escenarios centrales en la biografía de la autora: Brooklyn, la región de Basilicata, en el sur de Italia, Roma y Londres. Organizado en breves capítulos agrupados en bloques que llevan como título conceptos de un horóscopo –«Familia», «Viajes», «Salud», «Trabajo y dinero», «Amor»–, el texto se mueve entre la evocación y la reflexión, entre el recuerdo de los padres y el presente de la propia autora. El resultado es un libro íntimo y universal, que logra explicar la vida a través de las palabras.

Book excerpt: Relatos infieles es una recopilación de historias cortas oídas, vistas, comentadas o sufridas, sobre las circunstancias que rodean a la infidelidad. En las relaciones amorosas no hay buenos y malos, no hay reglas y no hay límites. Hay hechos, pensamientos y emociones. Tal vez haya quien se crea ganador y quien piense que lo ha perdido todo. No queda sino enfrentar al toro por los cuernos, con la tristeza, con la risa, con la estrategia que nos lleve a aceptar la naturaleza humana tal como es: defectuosa. La infidelidad tiene tantos matices como involucrados en el drama más antiguo del mundo. Después de todo, una infidelidad no es para morirse... o quien sabe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chilean writer Gabriela Mistral (1889-1957), the first Latin American to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, was a poetic idol for generations of Latin Americans who viewed her as Womanhood incarnate, the national schoolteacher-mother. How this distinctly masculine woman who never gave birth came to occupy this role, and what Mistral's image, poetry, and life have to say about the relations-and realities-of race, gender, and sexual politics in her time, are the questions Licia Fiol-Matta pursues in this book, recreating the story of a woman whose misrepresentation is at least as intriguing, and as instructive, as her fame. A Queer Mother for the Nation weaves a nuanced understanding of how Mistral cooperated with authority and fashioned herself as the figure of Motherhood in collaboration with the state. Drawing on Mistral's little-known political and social essays, her correspondence and photographs, Fiol-Matta reconstructs Mistral's relationship to state politics. Her work questions the notion of queer bodies as outlaws, and insists on the many ways in which queer subjects have participated in and sustained the normative discourses they seem to rebel against. Licia Fiol-Matta is assistant professor in the Department of Spanish and Latin American Cultures at Barnard College.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Como el da del Bautismo, de pronto el cielo cambi de forma, o de profundidad, la noche se trunc en una gran masa de manto negro y temible. Desaparecieron las estrellas, la luna nunca haba salido, ahora estara tragada por la inmensa concavidad de la tormenta que se gesta. No hubo trueno, no hubo relmpago. Se desgarr la oscuridad en un torrente de agua, la lluvia demandada por la escasa fe de Flavinia. Jess que estaba a veinte pasos habra intervenido, despus de todo. Ciertamente no era necesario saberlo. El ruido del agua creci de a poco sobre las piedras colgantes, el agua fue al hoyo en rebanadas de gran fuerza, dilatando el polvo que ya no es. Flavinia se desgarr el manto que se haba aherido a su cuerpo de plomo, se abalanz para abrazar el lodo, y arrancar una raz muerta, una raz que ahora tendra vida, entre el agua, y la tierra que se ha vuelto arcilla; se frot el rostro, el cuello, hundi la cabellera antiguamente quemada, ahora la senta ya resucitar al roce de las rocas, dej que todos sus aos y su cuerpo desnudo se baaran como en Roma, sin perfume, pero con el agua que es ms pura de la que baja del Palatino en Primavera. El Quinto Evangelio establece un nexo entre el primer siglo de la cristiandad y el presente. Se lee en el Captulo de La Ejecucin: "Deodoro Contreras muri a las siete y cuarenta. La cmara qued invisible para Vespasiano y el abogado, y para todos en verdad, cuando se corri una pesada cortina. No les era permitido ver el descenso del cuerpo exnime desde el lecho de lino. Se puede afirmar, sin metforas, que se revivi una vez ms la escena de la muerte en la cruz. No obstante, nadie esper que Contreras pudiera acogerse esta vez a los beneficios de la resurreccin"

Download or read book Entiendes? written by Emilie L. Bergmann and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "¿Entiendes?" is literally translated as "Do you understand? Do you get it?" But those who do "get it" will also hear within this question a subtler meaning: "Are you queer? Are you one of us?" The issues of gay and lesbian identity represented by this question are explored for the first time in the context of Spanish and Hispanic literature in this groundbreaking anthology. Combining intimate knowledge of Spanish-speaking cultures with contemporary queer theory, these essays address texts that share both a common language and a concern with lesbian, gay, and bisexual identities. Using a variety of approaches, the contributors tease the homoerotic messages out of a wide range of works, from chronicles of colonization in the Caribbean to recent Puerto Rican writing, from the work of Cervantes to that of the most outrageous contemporary Latina performance artists. This volume offers a methodology for examining work by authors and artists whose sexuality is not so much open as "an open secret," respecting, for example, the biographical privacy of writers like Gabriela Mistral while responding to the voices that speak in their writing. Contributing to an archeology of queer discourses, ¿Entiendes? also includes important studies of terminology and encoded homosexuality in Argentine literature and Caribbean journalism of the late nineteenth century. Whether considering homosexual panic in the stories of Borges, performances by Latino AIDS activists in Los Angeles, queer lives in turn-of-the-century Havana and Buenos Aires, or the mapping of homosexual geographies of 1930s New York in Lorca's "Ode to Walt Whitman," ¿Entiendes? is certain to stir interest at the crossroads of sexual and national identities while proving to be an invaluable resource.

Book excerpt: This collection reflects the author's deeply rooted passion for nature, for life, and for being. Agosín spent her summers at the Chilean seaside, near Neruda's home at Isla Negra. "The sea, the rocks, marine images became important elements in my creative work," she said recently. Here she creates a world where everything touches the sea and is, in turn, touched by it, a world peopled by those who "carry the scents of the river and the sign of water." "Agosín's voice [is] ripe with sensuality."--Booklist

Download or read book Unsettling Colonialism written by N. Michelle Murray and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An interdisciplinary analysis of gender, race, empire, and colonialism in fin-de-siècle Spanish literature and culture across the global Hispanic world. Unsettling Colonialism illuminates the interplay of race and gender in a range of fin-de-siècle Spanish narratives of empire and colonialism, including literary fictions, travel narratives, political treatises, medical discourse, and the visual arts, across the global Hispanic world. By focusing on texts by and about women and foregrounding Spain’s pivotal role in the colonization of the Americas, Africa, and Asia, this book not only breaks new ground in Iberian literary and cultural studies but also significantly broadens the scope of recent debates in postcolonial feminist theory to account for the Spanish empire and its (former) colonies. Organized into three sections: colonialism and women’s migrations; race, performance, and colonial ideologies; and gender and colonialism in literary and political debates, Unsettling Colonialism brings together the work of nine scholars.Given its interdisciplinary approach and accessible style, the book will appeal to both specialists in nineteenth-century Iberian and Latin American studies and a broader audience of scholars in gender, cultural, transatlantic, transpacific, postcolonial, and empire studies. “Each essay uniquely contributes to the theme of exploring the entanglements of gender and race through individual authors and texts in addition to those discourses that articulate Spanish colonialism and imperialism.” — Alda Blanco, San Diego State University
