Graduate Student Independent Studies
My independent study for my Integrative Masters consists of a bilingual (Spanish/English) picture book that is based on personal experience, and endeavors to describe the emotional distress and anxiety children can experience as second language learners entering a monolingual classroom for the first time. The book addresses not only the emotional and academic struggles of the child, but also the ways in which peers and teachers can intervene to ease the child's transition into English. Thus the book can serve as a resource to support monolingual classrooms. The study also includes a personal reflection of the process and journey, I …

El Mundo Plural De La Posmodernidad Y Las Nuevas Narrativas En España: Espacios Para La Subjetividad Femenina En Veo Veo, De Gabriela Bustelo, Morella Ortiz
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
One of the most salient features of contemporary Spanish fiction is the solid participation of women in literary creation, particularly that of novels. While in the 1970s there were isolated figures, in the 80s and with the consolidation of democracy, the number grew sharply; in the 90s, they multiplied their presence and their quality continues to be outstanding. In spite of the prejudices of sexist power, a good segment of the critics accepts that today a wider and more valuable group of female novelists has been capable of constructing themes, techniques and discourses differing from the predominant one. It is …

Transatlantic Fuentes: Between ‘The Two Shores’ Of Pluriculturality And Glossocentrism, Alberto Ribas-Casasayas
Modern Languages & Literature
The cultural program that Jerónimo de Aguilar pronounces at the end of Carlos Fuentes's short story “The Two Shores” appears to be inconsistent with the fundamentals of democratic liberalism and multiculturalism upon which they are ostensibly based. Furthermore, cultural visions like those in “The Two Shores” lend signifying imagery and empower cultural institutions, the media, and political authorities to exert symbolic violence upon minorities, thereby negating the multiculturalism that such visions claim to be promoting. El programa cultural que Jerónimo de Aguilar pronuncia al final del cuento “Las dos orillas” de Carlos Fuentes parece inconsistente con los fundamentos del liberalismo …

This Honors Project reflects my four years of experiences as a student of the Hispanic Studies Department. The project incorporates my experience and research conducted during my study abroad experience in Argentina, Spanish, and critical study and theory. Throughout the project, I examine the dichotomy between assimilation and liberation as a framework for the LGBTQ movement, and the commonalities in the histories of the three countries. My thesis states that: as a result of globalization and what I call the transatlantic trade of ideas, the LGBTQ movements in Spain, Argentina and the U.S. have all adapted a limited and ultimately …

We Have Something To Say: Ideas And Mobilization In The Migrant Solidarity Movement, Leif Johnson
Latin American Studies Honors Projects
Despite the existence of strong anti-immigrant sentiments across the United States, a movement in solidarity with undocumented migrants has emerged in southern Arizona and other heavily traveled border regions. Based on participatory research with the organization No More Deaths / No Mas Muertes, this thesis works towards an understanding of the ways in which this migrant solidarity movement reframes migration within a highly oppositional ideational space. My research suggests that, when examining movements that strongly reject accepted viewpoints, it is important to understand framing not only through analysis that examines a movement or organization as a whole, but also to …

La Parte Censurada De La Historia De La Provincia De Francisco De Florencia, Jason Dyck
FIMS Publications
Before the Jesuit Francisco de Florencia was able to publish the History of the Province (1694) he was forced to remove several chapters from the second book of the first volume. The section that was cut out of his manuscript reviews the errors of ancient theories on the environment of the New World, the greatness of Mexico City before the Spanish conquest, and the natural abundance of New Spain. This document is extremely valuable because it demonstrates how colonial historians were restricted by state censorship in what they were able to publish on America. The transcription of this censored section …

La autora porteña Alejandra Pizarnik (1936-72), como muchos otros artistas latinoamericanos sintió la atracción de París. Y como muchos otros, pasó unos años en la ciudad letrada par excellence, del 1960-64. ¿Cómo la percibió? ¿Qué marca dejó el ambiente vivido en su obra literaria? El propósito de este ensayo consiste en trazar y analizar las descripciones de París en las cartas, poesías y notas de diarios que escribe Pizarnik durante sus años parisinos. Llama la atención que la presentación de la ciudad varía considerablemente según el género literario que utiliza la autora. En sus cartas, describe París como un …

En su libro Victorian Honeymoons: Journeys to the Conjugal [Lunas de miel victorianas: viajes a lo conyugal], Helena Michie examina el concepto ideal de la luna de miel en el siglo XIX como una etapa de transición entre el pasado y el futuro, por medio de la cual los novios experimentan una reorientación (personal y espacial) y adquieren nuevas formas de conocimiento (conceptual y carnal) que servirán como la piedra angular de su matrimonio. Según Michie, la novela inglesa de la época victoriana refleja la dificultad de realizar este concepto ideal, representando pocas lunas de miel exitosas y muchas fracasadas. …

Organizing For Latinos In Los Angeles, Donna Orozco

Union membership and organizing has declined nationwide since 1983, when the Bureau of Labor Statistics first began collecting data on union membership. I found that while union membership has been decreasing nationwide, in Los Angeles, unions have been more successful in terms of organizing members starting with the Justice for Janitors Campaign of the 1980’s. In order to explain why Los Angeles has had better union membership rates, I will discuss the structural organization and strategies unions in Los Angeles have adopted. Unions in Los Angeles have structured themselves to involve working with community groups, worker centers, begins directly with …

Puerto Ricans' Evaluations Of Dominicans And Dominican Spanish As Reflected In Inter-Personal Interviews, Eva-Marie Suarez Budenbender
International Journal of the Linguistic Association of the Southwest
The present study investigates the connection between linguistic perceptions, speaker identification, and speaker attitude and examines the attitudes of speakers of Puerto Rican Spanish towards Dominican Spanish in sociolinguistic interviews. Although both varieties are linguistically very similar (Lipski 1994), the participants report being attuned to a range of linguistic differences between their variety and Dominican Spanish, while confirming widespread stigmatization of Dominicans and Dominican Spanish on the island. Their evaluations of Dominican Spanish are positive, indicating some degree of solidarity towards speakers of other Caribbean variety speakers. It is hypothesized that reported stigmatization of Dominicans and Dominican Spanish (Duany 2005) …

Analogical Imperfects And The Fate Of Iberian Verbal Morphology In Latin American Spanish, Israel Sanz-Sanchez

This paper examines the interaction of language-internal and language-external triggers in the formation of Latin American Spanish varieties. The focus of the paper is a scarcely studied morphological variant, namely the non-standard imperfects of the 2nd- and 3rd-conjugation: comer ‘to eat’ → comiba-, caer ‘to fall’ → caiba-, traer ‘to bring’ →traiba-, etc. The study first features a comprehensive dialectal and historical survey of these forms in Spain and Latin America. Later, it focuses on the factors that contributed to their success in traditional Latin American Spanish dialects vs. their relative infrequency in Spain. It will be argued that these …
