Chilean Cultural Identity: A Case Study Of Contemporary Mapuche Poetry, La Identidad Cultural Chilena: Un Caso De Estudio De La Poesía Mapuche Contemporánea, Christopher Culbertson

Senior Independent Study Theses

The topic is approached in three different manners: hybrid theory, academic perspectives, and poetry analysis. An application of hybrid theory facilitates the understanding of cultural identity within Chile. A discussion by three Chilean professors reveals the important themes of geographic location, generation, and language in both the production and reception of written contemporary Mapuche poetry. An analysis of selected of written Mapuche poetry depicts the unique conceptualizations of identity by contemporary Mapuche poets. As a result, this independent study shows how written contemporary Mapuche poetry is an appropriate indicator of the evolution of Mapuche hybrid identity.

Los Niños Que Se Quedan Atrás: La Doble Moral Sobre El Bilingüismo De Los Niños De Lengua Minoritaria En Las Escuelas Públicas Estadounidenses = The Children Left Behind: The Double Standard Of Bilingualism For Minority Language Children In American Public Schools, Emily Gazda

Honors Papers

En las escuelas estadounidenses los niños que hablan inglés se motivan para aprender una nueva lengua para ampliar los horizontes, pero los niños que entran en la escuela con otras lenguas - especialmente el español - se motivan para hablar solamente el inglés. Esta tesina intenta explorar el doble moral inherente en este sistema, y enfoca especialmente en el papel de la educación bilingüe dentro del acto Que Ningún niño se quede atrás (NCLB) de 2001. Establece las razones lingüísticas para la educación bilingüe y da un poco de su historia en los Estados Unidos, y termina con un análisis …


Rhetorics Of Empire: The Falangist Discourse Of War (1939-1943), M. Elena Aldea Agudo 2012 University of Kentucky

Rhetorics Of Empire: The Falangist Discourse Of War (1939-1943), M. Elena Aldea Agudo

Theses and Dissertations--Hispanic Studies

During the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) a mix of right-wing ideologies existed among the Francoist forces. In sharp contrast with the Republican forces, the Francoist insurgents were successful in banding together despite their ideological differences. However, in the postwar era, this relative unity gave way to a struggle among the different ideological positions, each striving to impose its agenda for the new State. The party Falange Española Tradicionalista y de las Juntas de Ofensiva Nacional Sindicalista (FET y de las JONS) assumed power, but was not entirely successful in advancing its totalitarian project, which it had inherited from the prewar …

La Llorona, Steven Byrd 2012 University of New England

La Llorona, Steven Byrd

Society, Culture and Languages Faculty Publications

Miguel, a peasant, journeys to Pueblo Santa Cruz for food, redemption, and a couple of cervezas at the Cantina de los Remedios. While at the Cantina, he becomes fascinated by an old guitar, La llorona, hanging upon the wall. The Cantina's owner, Pedrito, tells him of its origins, and the man who played it -- Rodrigo, perhaps the greatest singer-songwriter to have hailed from Pueblo Santa Cruz, but who mysteriously disappeared following a fateful love affair, leaving La llorona behind.

The Function Of Desire In The Legends Of Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, Kimberly Anne Aaron 2012 Minnesota State University - Mankato

The Function Of Desire In The Legends Of Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, Kimberly Anne Aaron

All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects

The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the function of desire in the legends of Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer. In ten of the fifteen legends, the protatonists are led by a misguided desire for something out of the ordinary, rejecting societal norms or common sense, to the point of self- and other-destructiveness. The protagonists create false realities for themselves in which they believe they will be able to conquer their desires with no consequences to themselves or to others. Analyses of desire by psychoanalysts Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan, philosopher David Hume, and other theologians and thinkers informed this work. …


“To Say Nothing”: Variations On The Theme Of Silence In Selected Works By Sor Juana Inés De La Cruz, Sandra Cisneros, And María Luisa Bombal, Hannah M. Frantz 2012 Gettysburg College

“To Say Nothing”: Variations On The Theme Of Silence In Selected Works By Sor Juana Inés De La Cruz, Sandra Cisneros, And María Luisa Bombal, Hannah M. Frantz

Student Publications

This paper explores the various ways in which Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’s La Respuesta, Sandra Cisneros’s “Woman Hollering Creek,” and María Luisa Bombal’s “The Tree” address the theme of silence. It interrogates how the female characters in each of these works are silenced as well as their responses to that oppression. Meaning is subjective, so writing is a safe outlet for the oppressed. These works each identify an oppressor, either a husband or the male dominated church, as well as an oppressed individual, who is the female lead. In La Respuesta, the Catholic church, and specifically …
