Eva Perón

Libertad Demitrópulos construye una biografía novelada de Eva Perón donde logra un sutil entramado entre los documentos de su vida política y la ficción. Traza en su escritura una heroína trágica, esta Evita feminista, mujer de profundo poder espiritual y liderazgo revolucionario. La llegada de la jujeña Libertad Demitrópulos a Buenos Aires se da en el mismo momento del surgimiento del movimiento peronista. Su condición de provinciana, peronista y mujer derivó en una triple marginación que hizo que su obra recibiera un reconocimiento tardío. El reconocimiento a su enorme capacidad literaria le llegaría con el rescate de obras exquisitas como Río de las congojas, donde trabajó...

Latin American Novels of the Conquest

"The fictionalized explorers and conquistadors represented in this corpus all identify with certain aspects of Amerindian culture - significantly, those elements that are most distinct from European culture, such as cannibalism and human sacrifice - but also feel the need to distance themselves from these "others" in order to protect their own European cultural identity. In most cases, the conquistadors themselves are represented as outsiders within the enterprise of imperialism, due to ethnic, religious, or sexual differences from the norm. This representation turns the gaze inward toward the "other" within European culture, underscoring the complex origins of Latin American cultures in the violent encounter between the Amerindians and the conquistadors." "By examining these issues, Lopez's Latin American Novels of the Conquest illuminates the ways in which Latin American novelists used their literary imaginations to embody their ambivalence regarding their own transcultural heritage as children of both the colonized and the colonizer."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Latin America's New Historical Novel

Latin America's New Historical Novel

Beginning with the 1979 publication of Alejo Carpentier's El arpa y la sombra, the New Historical Novel has become the dominant genre within Latin American fiction. In this at-times tongue-in-cheek postmodern study, Seymour Menton explores why the New Historical Novel has achieved such popularity and offers discerning readings of numerous works. Menton argues persuasively that the proximity of the Columbus Quincentennial triggered the rise of the New Historical Novel. After defining the historical novel in general, he identifies the distinguishing features of the New Historical Novel. Individual chapters delve deeply into such major works as Mario Vargas Llosa's La guerra del fin del mundo, Abel Posse's Los perros del paraíso, Gabriel García Márquez's El general en su laberinto, and Carlos Fuentes' La campaña. A chapter on the Jewish Latin American novel focuses on several works that deserve greater recognition, such as Pedro Orgambide's Aventuras de Edmund Ziller en tierras del Nuevo Mundo, Moacyr Scliar's A estranha nação de Rafael Mendes, and Angelina Muñiz's Tierra adentro.

JUAN RAMÓN JIMÉNEZ E HISPANOAMÉRICA

Los trabajos que se recogen en este volumen intentan abordar de la manera más completa posible la relación de Juan Ramón Jiménez con Hispanoamérica. Por un lado, reconstruyen pormenorizadamente su estancia en los países hispanoamericanos en los que residió o que visitó de manera prolongada (Cuba, Puerto Rico y Argentina); y por otro, analizan la presencia de Hispanoamérica en su obra, calibrando el influjo de la realidad y la literatura hispanoamericana en su pensamiento, valorando su labor como crítico de la literatura hispanoamericana, y determinando su huella en la poesía de aquellos países hispanoamericanos en los que constituyó un estímulo, un maestro o el referente de determinadas generaciones o grupos poéticos. Se profundiza, además, en el diálogo que, a lo largo de su vida, Juan Ramón mantuvo con tres poetas hispanoamericanos de generaciones diferentes: Rubén Darío, Pablo Neruda y José Lezama Lima. Y se reflexiona sobre la relevancia de la experiencia traumática del exilio en el modo en que el poeta se relacionó con la que él mismo llamó “Americohispania” en la última etapa de su vida.

Durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX tiene lugar en nuestro país una gran proliferación de escrituras por parte de autoras mujeres; casi un estallido textual si tenemos en cuenta la cantidad de nombres que empiezan a producir y publicar sus obras, a luchar por la visibilidad y por la construcción y legitimación de una voz propia. La ocupación del espacio dentro del campo literario por parte de las escritoras conlleva, necesariamente, un reacomodamiento del “canon”, de las convenciones genéricas y de las tradiciones literarias, una revisitación de las políticas sexuales y textuales que habilita y propicia revisiones, relecturas y reconsideraciones de la literatura argentina. La t...

Literary Reimaginings of Argentina’s Independence

An Open Access edition of this book will be available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library. As the moment of the birth of the patria, Independence enjoys a privileged role in the historical imaginary of many Latin American nations. In Argentina as in other countries, the period has been fundamental to state discourses of nation-building and identity, lending its figures and central narratives a powerful symbolic function. It has also attracted significant literary attention, and this book offers an innovative reading of texts that provide irreverent, metafictional, or self-reflexive retellings of this foundational moment. This type of fiction is usually read throug...
