Persistencia y cambio
La revisión crítica de la historia política y social, los análisis de la cultura, del discurso y de la vida cotidiana desde la mirada femenina que se ofrecen aquí, nos permiten ir trazando también los rasgos de la cultura de género en México. Como lo muestran estos estudios, cuando el punto de vista se sitúa en las mujeres y se ilumina la vida cotidiana, política o social desde su propia experiencia, el panorama cambia mucho o poco- pero siempre se enriquece.
Mujeres y re-presentación en México
Los ensayos aqu reunidos examinan y cuestionan algunas de las representaciones culturales m s importantes de la mujer en M xico. Releer a la Malinche y Sor Juana a trav s de la lente del g nero permite a las autoras desmontar los mecanismos que inscriben a las mujeres en pante n de santas, locas o prostitutas. Reconstituir el cuerpo femenino maltratado o asesinado, desde su materialidad, experiencia, sexualidad y fragilidad, devela hondas conexiones entre la violencia social y la de la representaci n.
From Lack to Excess
"From Lack to Excess analyzes the narrative and rhetorical structures of Latin American colonial texts by establishing a dialogue with studies on minority discourse, minor literatures, and postcolonial theory. After reviewing the main contributions and limitations of Transatlantic, Early Modern, and Postcolonial studies for the interpretation of Latin American colonial textualities, Martinez-San Miguel takes as a point of departure the subtle yet pervasive semantic link between the terms "minority" and "colonialism" prevalent in current studies on ethnic and sexual identities. She then engages the disciplinary debate between Colonial Latin American studies and Early Modern, Transatlantic, an...
Paris and the Marginalized Author
This volume of essays explores what it is that has brought marginalized and often exiled writers, seen as treacherous, alienated, and/or queer by their societies and nations together by way of Paris. Spanning from the inter-war period of the late 1920s to the present millennium, this volume considers many seminal questions that have influenced and continue to shape the realm of exiled writers who have sought refuge in Paris in order to write. Additionally, the volume’s essays seek to define alienation and marginalization as not solely subscribing to any single denominator -- sexual preference, gender, or nationality-- but rather as shared modes of being that allow authors to explore what i...

Uncivil Wars
The first English-language book to place the works of Elena Garro (1916–1998) and Octavio Paz (1914–1998) in dialogue with each other, Uncivil Wars evokes the lives of two celebrated literary figures who wrote about many of the same experiences and contributed to the formation of Mexican national identity but were judged quite differently, primarily because of gender. While Paz’s privileged, prize-winning legacy has endured worldwide, Garro’s literary gifts garnered no international prizes and received less attention in Latin American literary circles. Restoring a dual perspective on these two dynamic writers and their world, Uncivil Wars chronicles a collective memory of wars that s...
Feminismo y racismo.
En esta obra se cuenta la historia de los múltiples giros vitales de una feminista mexicana de la primera mitad del siglo XX: María Ríos Cárdenas, quien no nació siendo feminista, sino que, en un complejo proceso identitario, la construcción de sí misma fue el resultado de ensayar diversas configuraciones para estar en el mundo. Gracias a que se combinan las facetas públicas con las privadas, el libro profundiza en las múltiples caras del personaje, quien a lo largo de su longeva vida se desempeñó como: taquimecanógrafa, farandulera, enfermera, maestra en la lengua española, periodista y, finalmente, activa feminista y militante del movimiento sufragista mexicano. Hasta ahora, poco se había reflexionado sobre cómo María Ríos se construyó a sí misma, los obstáculos que tuvo que enfrentar, los malestares que sufrió y la forma en la que su pensamiento racista fue modificándose paulatinamente; incluso, se sugiere en el texto la posibilidad de definirla como una feminista eugenésica.

Mexican Waves
Mexican Waves is the fascinating history of how borderlands radio stations shaped the identity of an entire region as they addressed the needs of the local population and fluidly reached across borders to the United States. In so doing, radio stations created a new market of borderlands consumers and worked both within and outside the constraints of Mexican and U.S. laws. Historian Sonia Robles examines the transnational business practices of Mexican radio entrepreneurs between the Golden Age of radio and the early years of television history. Intersecting Mexican history and diaspora studies with communications studies, this book explains how Mexican radio entrepreneurs targeted the Mexican...
