En los casi treinta años transcurridos desde el restablecimiento de la democracia, los países del Cono Sur han transitado por profundas transformaciones socioculturales, económicas y políticas. Algunos elementos en común han sido la aplicación y el fracaso de políticas de corte neoliberal, la reconfiguración del escenario político, la revisión del pasado dictatorial y los reajustes ideológico-culturales en el campo literario e intelectual. Esto último atañe especialmente a países como Argentina y Brasil, donde los estallidos sociales desatados por décadas de medidas económicas restrictivas condujeron a la priorización de lo social en las agendas políticas. Por el contrario, la democracia chilena …
La (In)Gravidez De Las Palabras: Experiencia Y Lenguaje En Flores De Un Solo Día De Anna-Kazumi Stahl, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez
La (In)Gravidez De Las Palabras: Experiencia Y Lenguaje En Flores De Un Solo Día De Anna-Kazumi Stahl, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
La novela Flores de un solo día (2002) ha llamado la atención de la crítica literaria académica por plasmar temáticamente el conjunto de particularidades lingüísticas de su autora. Nacida en Shreveport, al norte de Luisiana, en 1962, de madre japonesa y padre alemán-norteamericano, Anna-Kazumi Stahl eligió como patria escrituraria el español rioplatense al mudarse a Buenos Aires en 1995. Para esta escritora que habla inglés, japonés y alemán, aprender español y escribir en esta lengua ha sido enfrentarse a un "otro" que se encuentra más allá de su mando y termina por convertirse en "el mejor recurso para una …

V období mezi lety 1950 a 1980 země v různých částech Latinské Ameriky zaznamenaly nebývale dramatický společenskopolitický vývoj, jehož důležitým mezníkem byla kubánská revoluce. Tato skutečnost se odrazila i v oblasti kultury. Na levicově orientované politické scéně vládlo přesvědčení o nevyhnutelnosti ozbrojeného boje za lepší společnost, přičemž klíčová úloha se přisuzovala cheguevarovské doktrině „nového člověka“. Tímto směrem se obraceli především ti, kteří ve své zemi chtěli svrhnout vládnoucí diktaturu a kořeny četných problémů tehdejší společnosti spatřovali především v sociální nerovnosti. Celou Latinskou Ameriku zachvátily revoluční myšlenky.
Phonetics Instruction Improves Learners' Perception Of L2 Sounds, Elizabeth M. Kissling
Phonetics Instruction Improves Learners' Perception Of L2 Sounds, Elizabeth M. Kissling
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
Explicit phonetics instruction can help second language (L2) learners to moderately improve their pronunciation, but less is known about how the instruction affects learners’ perception, even though there is evidence that perception and pronunciation are related. This study provided phonetics instruction to students (n = 46) studying Spanish as a foreign language and measured the resulting change in their perception of eight target phones as compared with a control group (n = 41). Perception was assessed with discrimination tests immediately following instruction and three weeks later. Results indicated that the instruction conferred a small advantage in the delayed …
The Catalan Theatre Scene. A Story Of Survival, Sharon G. Feldman
The Catalan Theatre Scene. A Story Of Survival, Sharon G. Feldman
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
The past four decades have been an exciting time for the Catalan stage. Barcelona has come into its own as a vibrant international theatre capital, and theatrical offerings in Catalonia are richer and more diverse than ever before. The process of recuperation, relegitimization and institutionalization of Catalan theatrical life that began during the period of transition from dictatorship to democracy has reached an impressive state of fruition and maturity. The situation is all the more astonishing when viewed in light of an historical context replete with political and economic constraints that have threatened to overwhelm and submerge, time and again, …
Aliadas E Insurrectas: Las Columnas Femeninas De Alfonsina Storni Y Clarice Lispector, Mariela Méndez
Aliadas E Insurrectas: Las Columnas Femeninas De Alfonsina Storni Y Clarice Lispector, Mariela Méndez
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
"A hurtadillas" Alfonsina Storni y Clarice Lispector incursionan en la lectura y en la escritura desde pequeñas, casi anticipando el camino que recorrerán más tarde como periodistas. En el caso de Storni, el "hurto" casi compulsivo de la palabra se insinúa tempranamente en la vida de la famosa poeta argentina. De hecho, Josefina Delgado comienza su biografia de la escritora relatando cómo una Alfonsina de sólo ocho años roba en la ciudad de San Juan el tan deseado libro de lectura que sus padres no pueden comprarle: "Este episodio habría de marcar a Alfonsina", concluye Delgado, ya que "es el …
Alternative Mappings Of Belonging: Non Son De Aquí By María Do Cebreiro And Rasgado By Lila Zemborain, Mariela Méndez
Alternative Mappings Of Belonging: Non Son De Aquí By María Do Cebreiro And Rasgado By Lila Zemborain, Mariela Méndez
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
This essay examines the travels of the poetic speakers in two poetry collections: by the Argentinean writer Lila Zemborain, and by the Galician poet and critic María do Cebreiro, to postulate a revision of notions of belonging in its intersection with gender and space. Rasgado (2006) is a sort of poetic diary written by Lila Zemborain, who resides in New York, responding as both insider and outsider to the World Trade Center attacks on 11 September 2001. María do Cebreiro's book, Non son de aquí (2008) similarly follows the path of a nomadic speaker intent on redefining the terms of …
Speak Out Loud: Deconstructing Shame And Fear Through Theater In A Community-Based Service-Learning Project, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez
Speak Out Loud: Deconstructing Shame And Fear Through Theater In A Community-Based Service-Learning Project, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
The combination of theater and community-based service-learning can be a powerful tool to allow university students to meet their educational goals while connecting them with the world. The performance of children's theater in elementary schools with English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) programs, for example, has important pedagogical and social effects. For both groups of students, this becomes an opportunity to be better prepared for a level of social engagement involving bilingualism that was not necessarily available to their parents and/or members of their community. The author describes and analyzes the results of teh adaptation and performance of Alfonsina …
