Journeys To Self And Lessons Of Other: Carlos Castaneda, Indigenismo, And The Politics Of A New Age, 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 …

Fencing Off Love/ Feeding Off Love: Men In Love And The Women They Distrust In Machado De Assis's Ressurreição And Dom Casmurro, Diana Anselmo-Sequeira

As obras de Machado de Assis dramatizam as ansiedades vividas no seio da sociedade brasileira do fim de século XIX, especialmente as tensões sentidas entre uma masculinidade ameaçada e uma feminilidade emergente. Este artigo examina dois dos romances que melhor definem as mudanças estilísticas da vida literária de Machado - Ressurreição (1872), o seu primeiro livro moldado ao estilo europeu; e Dom Casmurro (1899, a obra que marcou a sua passagem para um tom único e realista. Analisando a complexa relação de despeito e ternura que instiga os principais pares amorosos retratados nestas duas obras, eu procuro argumentar que o …

This paper addresses gender, nation and sacrifice as central elements in Lituma en los Andes (1993), a novel published by Mario Vargas Llosa after he ran unsuccessfully for the Peruvian presidency. The book presents a number of masculine models that are either inadequate, romanticized or brutal and sets them against a backdrop of a Peru deep in the economic and physical violence of war against the Maoist guerrillas of Sendero Luminoso, a Peru forced to live in a “superstitious and obscurantist cultural fog” because of its indigenous past. My study shows how the narrow worldview of the protagonist is challenged …

This essay has two purposes. The first is to analyze the representation of popular music in the Dominican Republic since the mid-nineteenth century to the 1930s. The second is to explore the incorporation and subversion of the notion of merengue as a symbol of "barbarism" in the works of the Dominican writer Ramón Marrero Aristy.
