On Migration
This volume is based on the section “Transnationalities – Transidentities – Hybridities – Diasporization”, organized by the Ibero-American and Francophone Research Centres of the University of Leipzig as part of the First Annual Conference of the Centre for Area Studies at the University of Leipzig. By now, already a decade has passed since our conference section took place and it is due to various circumstances that this volume has not been published earlier. It carries along, in some sense, its own migration trace. Nevertheless, the questions examined in the contributions have reached even more relevance since then in both, the Old World and the New, due to the various political,...
Cuba and Puerto Rico
The intertwined stories of two archipelagos and their diasporas This volume is the first systematic comparative study of Cuba and Puerto Rico from both a historical and contemporary perspective. In these essays, contributors highlight the interconnectedness of the two archipelagos in social categories such as nation, race, class, and gender to encourage a more nuanced and multifaceted study of the relationships between the islands and their diasporas. Topics range from historical and anthropological perspectives on Cuba and Puerto Rico before and during the Cold War to cultural and sociological studies of diasporic communities in the United States. The volume features analyses of political c...
Transatlantic, Transcultural, and Transnational Dialogues on Identity, Culture, and Migration
Transatlantic, Transcultural, and Transnational Dialogues on Identity, Culture, and Migration analyzes the diasporic experiences of migratory and postcolonial subjects through the lenses of cultural studies, critical race theory, narrative theory, and border studies. These narratives cover the United States, the U.S.-Mexico border, the Hispanophone Caribbean, and the Iberian Peninsula and illustrate a shared diasporic experience across the Atlantic. Through a transatlantic, transcultural, and transnational lens, this volume brings together essays on literature, film, and music from disparate geographic areas: Spain, Cuba and Jamaica, the U.S.-Mexico border, and Colombia. Throughout the volum...
"Art, Technology and Nature "
Since 1900, the connections between art and technology with nature have become increasingly inextricable. Through a selection of innovative readings by international scholars, this book presents the first investigation of the intersections between art, technology and nature in post-medieval times. Transdisciplinary in approach, this volume?s 14 essays explore art, technology and nature?s shifting constellations that are discernible at the micro level and as part of a larger chronological pattern. Included are subjects ranging from Renaissance wooden dolls, science in the Italian art academies, and artisanal epistemologies in the followers of Leonardo, to Surrealism and its precursors in Mann...
The Autos Sacramentales of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz
This volume surveys the work of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1651-1695), the most significant literary figure of the colonial period in Spanish America. Focusing on her three religious plays, it analyses the role of early scientific ideas in her literary works
Crisis y creatividad en el teatro español y latinoamericano del siglo XIX al siglo XXI
En una era en que el mundo mediático parece ir reemplazando lo real, diluyéndolo inevitablemente, el teatro es tal vez el único espacio artístico en que aún se percibe el límite entre lo real y lo ficticio. En este sentido, el teatro resulta un medio privilegiado para llamar la atención sobre esta conciencia de la experiencia vital, de sus problemáticas, puntos de quiebre y abismos, y para explorar todo tipo de crisis, visibles e invisibles, antiguas y modernas. Los estudios reunidos en este libro sobre "Crisis y creatividad en el teatro español y latinoamericano del siglo XIX al siglo XXI" se basan en estas dos palabras para reflexionar sobre su interacción creadora, así como los...
From the Theater to the Plaza
Lavapiés - diverse, multicultural, and one of Madrid’s most iconic neighbourhoods - has emerged as a locus of resistance movements and of cultural flourishing. Poised at the intersection of theatre studies and cultural geography, this innovative study sketches its physical and imaginary contours. In From the Theater to the Plaza Matthew Feinberg guides readers on a journey through the development of the theatre, as both art and space, in Lavapiés. Offering a detailed analysis of dramatic texts and productions, performance spaces, urban planning documents, and the cultural activities of squatters, Feinberg sheds new light on the lead-up to Spain’s economic crisis and the emergence in 2011 of the 15-M anti-austerity protest movement. The result is a multidisciplinary account of how the spectacle of the contemporary city connects local, municipal, and global geographies. By linking the neighbourhood’s unique role as both a site and a subject of Madrid’s theatre tradition with its contemporary struggles over gentrification, From the Theater to the Plaza offers new approaches for understanding how culture and capital produce the twenty-first-century city.
Epistemologische Entwürfe
Die Idee, einen Band mit von PD Dr. habil. Kian-Harald Karimi selbst ausgewählten Texten zu veröffentlichen, ist das Ergebnis zahlreicher, langer und intensiver Gespräche seit Beginn des Jahres 2020, über eine Vielfalt von Inhalten, wie etwa über Persönliches oder über seine Stationen in Bonn und Leipzig, über Themen und Theorien, oder über die Institution Universität. Kian-Harald Karimi hatte vor seinem Ableben noch die Kraft gehabt, dieses Buchprojekt zu entwerfen. Das war seine Art, sich mit voller Kraft gegen eine lange Krankheit zu stemmen und buchstäblich ins Leben zurückzukommen, eine Aufgabe, die ihn mit Freude erfüllte, denn er hatte eine unermessliche Liebe zur Literat...
La voix dans la culture et la littérature françaises (1713-1875)
L'âge classique de la culture française a honoré la voix, chantée, déclamée ou parlée. Elle restait toutefois marginale dans l'univers de l'écriture. La modernité, avec Derrida, révisa ce statut. Mais la littérature française de 1713 à 1875 avait déjà posé la voix comme l'une de ses questions.
