Affect, Gender and Sexuality in Latin America
This book emphasizes the significance of affects, feelings and emotions in how we think about politics, gender and sexuality in Latin America. Considering the complex and even contradictory social processes that the region is experiencing today, many Latin American authors are turning to affect to find a key to understand our present situation, to revisit our history, and to imagine new possibilities for the future. This tendency has shown such a specificity and sometimes departure from northern productions that it compels us to focus more deeply on its own arguments, methods, and critical contributions. This volume features essays that explore the particularities of Latin American ways of thinking about affect and how they can shed new light into our understanding of, gender, sexuality and politics.
Las Morla
Este diario nos entrega una verdadera fotografía de la vida cotidiana de una familia fuera de lo común a principios del siglo XX, en un mundo que hoy parece muy lejano. Revela el enorme talento literario de su autora, Carmen Morla, dueña de un fino sentido de la observación, que logra descripciones agudas, graciosas y originales de los lugares y personas que la rodean. Los hermosos dibujos de su hermana Ximena acompañan y enriquecen el relato para dar vida a un texto apasionante, entretenido y profundamente humano, fiel reflejo de sus autoras.
Republics of Knowledge
"Republics of Knowledge tells the story of how the circulation of knowledge shaped the formation of nation-states in Latin America, and particularly in Argentina, Peru and Chile, during the century after Iberian rule was defeated in the 1820s. Most immediately, the author has sought to provide a cross-disciplinary approach to the history of knowledge, combining the methods of global intellectual history with a new way of thinking about nations as experienced and enacted as well as how they are imagined, and in so doing offer a new interpretation of the history of independent Latin America to illustrate its wider significance in the making of the modern world. By bringing these lines of inqui...
Réplicas de arte

Se trata de transcripciones directas de los originales, sin correcciones más allá de los errores tipográficos, con las que vuelven al lector textos desaparecidos que narran una etapa vital del arte chileno a mano de uno de sus protagonistas principales.
Indigenous Audibilities
"In the middle decades of the twentieth century, transnational networks sparked a range of cultural projects focused on collecting Indigenous music and folklore in the Americas. Indigenous Audibilities follows the social relations that created these collections in four interconnected case studies linking the U.S., Mexico, Nicaragua, and Chile. Indigenous collections were embedded in political projects that negotiated issues of cultural diplomacy, national canons, and heritage. The case studies recuperate the traces of marginalized voices in archives, paying special attention to female researchers and Indigenous collaborators. Despite the dominant agendas of national and international institutions, the diverse actors and the multi-directional influences often created unexpected outcomes. The book brings together theories of collection, voice, media, writing, and recording to challenge the transparency of archives as a historical source. Indigenous Audibilities presents a social-historical method of listening, reading, and thinking beyond the referentiality of archived texts, and in the process uncovers neglected genealogies of cultural music research in the Americas"--
École de Paris Global
Es ist eine häufig erzählte Geschichte, dass Paris am Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts das Weltzentrum der Kunst gewesen sei. Dieses Buch fragt danach, welchen Beitrag Ausstellungen zwischen 1921 und 1946 zur Entwicklung und Verbreitung dieser Erzählung geleistet haben. Es beleuchtet Ausstellungen in den Cafés des Pariser Viertels Montparnasse und die internationalen Ausstellungen der "École de Paris". So treten konkurrierende Sichtweisen auf Paris als Zentrum und Kreuzungspunkt der Kunstwelt hervor. Dieses Buch bietet erstmals einen chronologischen sowie topographischen Überblick über diese Ausstellungen. Zudem löst es die kunsthistorische Forschung zur "École de Paris" aus ihrer auf Paris fokussierten Perspektive und analysiert seinen Gegenstand im Horizont transkultureller Dynamiken. Bietet eine neue Sichtweise auf die ,,École de Paris" Ausstellungsgeschichte moderner Kunst Katalog zu den Caféausstellungen in Montparnasse und den internationalen Ausstellungen der ,,École de Paris"
