A Never Ending Journey: The Impossibilities Of Home In Sirena Selena Vestida De Pena And Flores De Otro Mundo, Irune Del Rio Gabiola
Irune Gabiola
Reconsiderations of home have been crucially examined in Caribbean cultural productions. As Jamil Khader argues in her article on “Subaltern Cosmopolitanism: Community and Transnational Mobility in Caribbean Postcolonial Feminist Writings,” Caribbean feminists are faced with the task of challenging a conventional idea of home that has historically located women and other marginal subjects under conditions of oppression and exploitation. In focusing on the narratives by Aurora Levins Morales, Rosario Morales and Esmeralda Santiago, she points out the infinite sense of homelessness that invades, in particular, these Puerto Rican individuals who need to find more productive manners to articulate “home” while …

PEDRO Salinas es el poeta moderno del amor influido tanto por el gusto renacentista, con alusiones implicitas a Jorge Manrique y Garcilaso, como por el gusto romintico -Espronceda o Becquer-. Su obra poetica se enmarca en tres fases claramente diferenciadas por Juan Marichal en Tres Voces de Pedro Salinas. "La primera que corresponde alas dos d6cadas 1913-1933, es la fase de lo que podrfamos denominar fase de encentraci6nl;a segunda, de 1933-1936, es la fase de lo que podrfamos denominar de descentracio6enn el th de la amada, y la tercera, de 1936 a 1951, es la fase final de sobre-centracioe6nn el …

Civilizando El Carnaval: La Retórica Del Progreso En Las Obras De Lola Rodríguez De Tío, Irune Del Rio Gabiola
Civilizando El Carnaval: La Retórica Del Progreso En Las Obras De Lola Rodríguez De Tío, Irune Del Rio Gabiola
Irune Gabiola
La escritora puertorriqueña Lola Rodríguez de Tió (1843–1924) contribuyó a la cultura puertorriqueña mediante sus escritos a favor de la independencia de la isla, su inserción en terreno político y su participación en los diagnósticos nacionales. Desgraciadamente, la crítica apenas se ha acercado a la obra de esta prolífica escritora decimonónica que además reivindicó la presencia femenina en las artes, lo social y cultural. Tomando como punto de partida la representación narrativa del carnaval de Caracas y de Puerto Rico, mi acercamiento a su obra se encuadra en un análisis de la modernidad y en cómo esta tendencia eurocéntrica anula …

Verbal Agreement In The L2 Spanish Of Speakers Of Nahuatl, Alma Ramirez-Trujillo, Joyce Bruhn De Garavito
Alma P Ramirez-Trujillo
This paper examines the production of subject/verb agreement in the L2 Spanish of Nahuatl L1 speakers in light of the debate on whether problems with morphology are evidence for a deficit at the functional level in second language acquisition. In particular, it focuses on whether age of acquisition is the determining factor in the production of agreement, or whether quantity and quality of input are. Results show that there was no difference in the rate or type of error according to age of acquisition, but there was an important difference in rate between those participants who had little or no …

The Worldmakers: Global Imagining In Early Modern Europe, Ayesha Ramachandran
The Worldmakers: Global Imagining In Early Modern Europe, Ayesha Ramachandran
Ayesha Ramachandran
In this beautifully conceived book, Ayesha Ramachandran reconstructs the imaginative struggles of early modern artists, philosophers, and writers to make sense of something that we take for granted: the world, imagined as a whole. Once a new, exciting, and frightening concept, “the world” was transformed in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. But how could one envision something that no one had ever seen in its totality? The Worldmakers moves beyond histories of globalization to explore how “the world” itself—variously understood as an object of inquiry, a comprehensive category, and a system of order—was self-consciously shaped by human agents. Gathering an …

Visualizing A State Of Debt: Sergio Chejfec’S Art Of Landscapes And Loans, Stephen Buttes
Visualizing A State Of Debt: Sergio Chejfec’S Art Of Landscapes And Loans, Stephen Buttes
Stephen M Buttes
This paper examines two novels by the Argentine author Sergio Chejfec: Boca de lobo (2000) and La experiencia dramática (2012). By examining their relationship to Jorge Luis Borges' short story "El Zahir," I examine the ways in which the structures and obligations of loans and debt (or contemporary forms of abstract money more generally) are materialized into understandable and interpretable aesthetic forms in the novel. I suggest that Chejfec's interest in literary form and economic form in these novels present key complications to the concept of posthegemony as it is elaborated by John Beasley-Murray.

Shantytown Vistas And Immigrant Voices: Bernardo Verbitsky, Guaraní Language And The Art Of Overcoming Peronism, Stephen Buttes

This was an invited presentation at a conference of Indiana professors who specialize in research on Latin America. The conference was hosted by the Minority Languages and Literature program at Indiana University, Bloomington. I gave a version of what was then a forthcoming paper on Bernardo Verbitsky's novel Villa Miseria también es América. The entire essay can be read at the following link: http://muse.jhu.edu/login?auth=0&type=summary&url=/journals/revista_de_estudios_hispanicos/v047/47.2.buttes.html

Mass Media, “Realismo Villero” And “El Sueño Argentino”: The Return To Literature In Gabriela Cabezón Cámara’S La Virgen Cabeza (2009), Stephen Buttes
Stephen M Buttes
This paper begins by developing the concept of "de-fictionalization," which the Argentine author Roberto Arlt develops in his newspaper columns about the Paraná Delta region of Argentina. Bringing this concept to bear on Gabriela Cabezón Cámara's recent novel La virgen cabeza, which narrates the story of contemporary Delta residents living in a villa miseria or shantytown near San Isidro, I suggest that the notion of de-fictionalization is crucial to the primary critical reception of the novel, which has highlighted an interest in biopolitics. These biopolitical approaches tend to foreground what they understand as the novel's postmodernist techniques such as pastiche, …
El Pelado Y ‘La Desnudez De México:’ Reading Urban Poverty With Salvador Novo And Agustín Yáñez, Stephen Buttes
El Pelado Y ‘La Desnudez De México:’ Reading Urban Poverty With Salvador Novo And Agustín Yáñez, Stephen Buttes
Stephen M Buttes
The paper examines the role that urban poor played in discourses of national identity in the post-revolutionary period in Mexico (1920-1950). As Mexico emphasized its indigenous, rural past while at the same time becoming increasingly urban during its process of modernization, the underpinnings of a “proper” or “autochthonous” national identity were also necessarily questioned. These tensions are perhaps best exemplified in what Guillermo Sheridan has called the “dilemma” of “formative” and “speculative” models of the “national soul” (57). While the former saw itself as prescriptive, this “speculative” model of national identity, in which “la nacionalidad se convierte … en una …

Shantytown Vistas And Immigrant Voices: Bernardo Verbitsky, Kenneth Kemble And The Art Of Overcoming Peronism, Stephen Buttes
Stephen M Buttes
Este ensayo propone leer Villa Miseria también es América (1957) de Bernardo Verbitsky como una propuesta para superar el binario político-afectivo de la revolución anti-peronista de la década del 1950. En primer lugar, se argumenta que el personaje José Rodríguez, estudiante de izquierda torturado por el régimen peronista, puede entenderse como un retrato del artista comprometido. Luego, se establecen conexiones entre los intereses estéticos de este personaje y los del movimiento de vanguardia informalista, haciendo hincapié en la serie de collages Paisajes suburbanos (1958–61) de Kenneth Kemble. Al comparar los materiales que componen los paisajes villeros que produce Kemble y …

Journeys To Self And Lessons Of Other: Carlos Castaneda, Indigenismo, And The Politics Of A New Age, Ageeth Sluis
Ageeth Sluis
During the 1960s and 1970s, Carlos Castaneda’s work on shamanism introduced a large international readership to Mexico at a time when the Americas saw pronounced socio-political and cultural changes: mounting social unrest, political instability, civil rights movements, the counterculture, and the sexual and other revolutions. While heavily criticized by contemporary scholars, Castaneda's work became instrumental in the construction of an imagined Mexico, which, in addition to drawing counterculture tourists, featured new ways of conceptualizing race and gender. Seeking to understand the Castaneda phenomenon within a larger transnational context, the study sheds light on how new conceptions of indigenous identity informed …
