Modern Nicaraguan Poetry
This work demonstrates that twentieth-century Nicaraguan poetry can not be comprehended in its fullest dimension without an understanding of the literary traditions of France and the United States. Ever since Ruben Dario established Hispanic America's literary independence from Spain in the nineteenth century with his modernista revolution, poets in Nicaragua actively have engaged in a dialogue with the works of French and North American authors as a means of assimilating and transforming them and thereby inventing a profoundly Nicaraguan literary identity. This process has resulted in what might be called a double genealogy in Nicaraguan poetry: certain poets attracted to the alchemical pro...
A History of Chilean Literature
This book covers the heterogeneity of Chilean literary production from the times of the Spanish conquest to the present. It shifts critical focus from national identity and issues to a more multifaceted transnational, hemispheric, and global approach. Its emphasis is on the paradigm transition from the purportedly homogeneous to the heterogeneous.
Seeing Politics Otherwise
When confronting twentieth-century political oppression and violence, writers and artists in Portugal and South America have often emphasized the complex relationship between freedom and tyranny. In Seeing Politics Otherwise, Patricia Vieira uses an interdisciplinary approach to explore the interrelation of politics and representations of vision and blindness in Latin American and Iberian literature, film, and art. Vieira's discussion focuses on three literary works: Graciliano Ramos's Memoirs of Prison, Ariel Dorfman's Death and the Maiden, and José Saramago's Blindness, with supplemental analyses of sculpture and film by Ana Maria Pacheco, Bruno Barreto, and Marco Bechis. These artists use metaphors of blindness to denounce the totalizing gaze of dictatorial regimes. Rather than equating blindness with deprivation, Vieira argues that shadows, blindfolds, and blindness are necessary elements for re-imagining the political world and re-acquiring a political voice. Seeing Politics Otherwise offers a compelling analysis of vision and its forcible deprivation in the context of art and political protest.

Presuntas re-apariciones: Poesía Chilena.
El conjunto de estudios aquí presentados tienen la condición de análisis y de comentarios de algunos textos poéticos chilenos escritos entre 1980 y 2000. La selección no se rige por un criterio historiográfico estricto, tratándose antes de una aproximación gruesa y relativamente proporcional a la determinación generacional o promocional latente en los estudios genéricos, esto es promociones del 60, 80 o 90. Una condición constatada posteriormente, es que se trata de autores residentes o que permanecieron en Chile durante la dictadura, el régimen militar, con la excepción de Gonzalo Millán, considerando también algunos textos de la postdictadura y de la transición.

Tierras de duro reino
“Texto testimonio de una estancia en el norte. Estancia en el doble sentido: a su manera una propiedad de tierra indefinida y extensa, aunque simbólica, testimonio de un precario habitar, de una advenediza apropiación, cuyos títulos son los que otorgan los textos. Entiéndase títulos de propiedad simbólicos, provisionales, otorgándole a la poesía o al lenguaje una función de posicionamiento. Consciente o inconscientemente se le concede a la poesía cierta condición de posicionamiento, que hoy llamaría las marcas simbólicas territoriales que nuestros hermanos mamíferos u otros seres replican o nos demuestran de otra manera” (del Prólogo).
