Fearless: Emily Hauck, Emily G. Hauck

SURGE

Beginning with an interest in Spanish language that led her to Argentina and Spain, Emily decided to use the language skills she acquired during her gap year after high school and time spent studying abroad to get herself connected to the Latino community in Adams County. Volunteering with different organizations and programs like the LIU #12 Migrant Education Programs, Casa de la Cultura, and El Centro, Emily started seeing the big picture—making connections between the immigration stories, people she was meeting, and the greater national dialogue on immigration issues.

I'Ve Seen The Promised Land: A Letter To Amelia Boynton Robinson, Mauricio E. Novoa

SURGE

You asked if I had any thoughts or comments at the end of our visit, and I stood and said nothing. I opened my mouth, but instead of giving you words my throat was sealed by a dam of speechlessness while my eyes wept out all the emotions and heartache that I wanted to share with you. The others in my group were able to express their admiration, so I wanted to do the same. [excerpt]

Tracking Jesusa: Geographic Information Systems And Character Development In Hasta No Verte, Jesús Mío, Pamela H. Long, Kevin W. Long

Diálogo

This study examines the uses of mapping software and web tools to produce multimedia annotations of a literary work—in this case Hasta no verte, Jesús mío by Elena Poniatowska—to the end of strengthening student engagement with the text, and cultural and literary contexts. The authors, a professor and a student at Auburn University-Montgomery, photographed scenes of specific sites and landmarks mentioned in the novel, mapped them on Google Maps, then linked the sites with historic photos of the periods indicated in the novel, in preparation for creating a unique website.

Diálogo

This article reviews the pedagogical practices and experiences of undergraduate students upon confronting the emblematic text of the 1960s, La noche de Tlatelolco (1971; Massacre in Mexico, 1975), by Elena Poniatowska. Students are guided to consider ethics, aesthetics and politics as conceptual vectors to help them problematize this historic event materialized into a literary text, through its borders, linguistic and ideological representational nature, to evaluate the intricacies of contextual knowledge.

De Las Voces Indígenas Al Danzante Viajero: Algunas Reflexiones En Torno A La Obra Poética De Astrid Fugellie Y Diana Bellessi, Zulema Moret

Diálogo

A comparative study of how myth, history and women’s voices function in the poetry of two South American poets, Astrid Fugellie (Chile) and Diana Bellessi (Argentina). Fugellie’s poems reveal a history that is oriented from feminine, indigenous and myth-centered ideas, while Bellessi’s poetic voice constructs a cultural utopia, mapping native American (continental) presence. In each case, the poets allude to a voice that gives form to myth, and in so doing, establishing close contact with nature. From Indigenous female voices fixed on regional landscapes in Fugellie to the fleeting dancer in Bellessi, two nearly opposite movements configure and found Latin …

Nepantleras Del Siglo Xx Al Siglo Xxi: Travesías De Poesía De Chicanas En Español, María Del Socorro Gutiérrez Magallanes

Diálogo

This text discusses three poems in Spanish translation by three Chicana writers who call themselves Nepantleras: Gloria Anzaldúa, Lucha Corpi and Cherríe Moraga. These poets are emblematic of the late twentieth century, and essential reading for the twenty-first century. Chicana poetry and scholarship crosses borders, between Mexico and the United States, and the U.S. and the world. Examined through theorist Gloria Anzaldúa’s ideas, based in Indigenous American cosmology of nepantlear—shifting, translating, negotiating, transforming and creating a new space denominated “in-between”—the poets cross borders, languages, seas, rivers and check points to depict contemporary experience. Also considered is Chela Sandoval’s “hermeneutics of …
