Como foi a participação das mulheres cativas na sociedade escravista e nas primeiras décadas da pós-emancipação? Como protestaram mirando a escravidão e contrariando a ideia de que aceitaram com passividade a opressão imposta? Os ensaios desta coletânea, que abrange os séculos 18 a 20, constituem um quadro amplo e fascinante das experiências das mulheres africanas, crioulas, cativas e forras.
A reflection on Federico García Lorca’s life, his haunting death, and the fame that reinvigorated the marvelous in the modern world “A galaxy of critical insights into the cultural shock waves circling and crisscrossing Lorca’s execution and his unknown resting place, there is not a single book on Lorca like this one.”—Andrés Zamora, Vanderbilt University There is something fundamentally unfinished about the life and work of Federico García Lorca (1898–1936), and not simply because his life ended abruptly. Noël Valis reveals how this quality gives shape to the ways in which he has been continuously re-imagined since his death. Lorca’s execution at the start of the Spanish Civil War was not only horrific but transformative, setting in motion many of the poet’s afterlives. He is intimately tied to both an individual and a collective identity, as the people’s poet, a gay icon, and fabled member of a dead poets’ society. The specter of his violent death continues to haunt everything connected to Lorca, fueling the desire to fill in the gaps in the poet’s biography.
