Mito y Modernidad en la obra de Rosamel del Valle

La siguiente investigación aborda la relación entre mito y modernidad en la obra literaria (poemas, cuentos, novelas y crónicas) del autor chileno Rosamel del Valle (Curacaví, 1901 – Santiago de Chile, 1965). En sus distintos textos existe una tensión entre un proyecto poético basado en una visión mítica del mundo y un contexto histórico que privilegia posturas más racionalistas, relegando lo poético y lo mítico. Ya en el siglo XIX la modernidad y los fenómenos asociados de la modernización producen el desplazamiento de la poesía como discurso y del poeta como persona a una situación deficitaria dentro de la sociedad, lo que se extiende en el siglo XX.

'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

Monuments, Empires, and Resistance

From AD 1550 to 1850, the Araucanian polity in southern Chile was a center of political resistance to the intruding Spanish empire. In this book, Tom D. Dillehay examines the resistance strategies of the Araucanians and how they used mound building and other sacred monuments to reorganize their political and culture life in order to unite against the Spanish. Drawing on anthropological research conducted over three decades, Dillehay focuses on the development of leadership, shamanism, ritual, and power relations. His study combines developments in social theory with the archaeological, ethnographic, and historical records. Both theoretically and empirically informed, this book is a fascinating account of the only indigenous ethnic group to successfully resist outsiders for more than three centuries and to flourish under these conditions.
