The Monstered Self
Viewing stories and novels from an ethnographic perspective, Eduardo González here explores the relationship between myth, ritual, and death in writings by Borges, Vargas Llosa, Cortázar, and Roa Bastos. He then weaves this analysis into a larger cultural fabric composed of the works of Chaucer, Shakespeare, Joyce, Benjamin, H. G. Wells, Kafka, Poe, and others. What interests González is the signature of authorial selfhood in narrative and performance, which he finds willfully and temptingly disfigured in the works he examines: horrific and erotic, subservient and tyrannical, charismatic and repellent. Searching out the personal image and plot, González uncovers two fundamental types of ...
Appropriating Theory
Angel Rama (1926-1983) is a major figure in Latin American literary and cultural studies, but little has been published on his critical work. In this study, Jose Eduardo Gonzalez focuses on Rama's response to and appropriation of European critics like Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno, and Georg Lukacs. Gonzalez argues that Rama realized the inapplicability of many of their theories and descriptions of cultural modernization to Latin America, and thus reworked them to produce his own discourse that challenged prevailing notions of social and cultural modernization.

Friends and neighbors warn him that in the United States itÍs not considered so unusual for a fifteen-year-old girl to run away.

And to complicate matters, Dante is in the U.S. illegally, making it difficult to report the girlÍs disappearance to the police. So begins DanteÍs odyssey. Accompanied b...
Eduardo Gonzalez: Esta es su historia
Con Eduardo y otros tres hermanos, nos toco nacer en un rinconcito pobre de Montevideo: fuimos "los hijos del Peluquero", y nos criamos en ese barrio carenciado pero de gente trabajadora. Nuestros amigos del barrio eran hijos de padres de diferentes nacionalidades, que, como nosotros, sus ancestros habian emigrado mayormente desde Europa. Sobre la avenida principal y subiendo desde nuestras casas, estaba la iglesia evangelica que era bien activa en el barrio. Alli conocimos del amor y el poder de Dios, y de forma individual, fuimos experimentando el que "para Dios no hay nada imposible". Jesus fue nuestro mejor Amigo... El estaba siempre cerca y en toda ocasion estaba con nosotros. Eduardo f...
