Trauma And Temporal Hybridity In Arundhati Roy’S The God Of Small Things, Elizabeth Outka
Trauma And Temporal Hybridity In Arundhati Roy’S The God Of Small Things, Elizabeth Outka
English Faculty Publications
Arundhati Roy’s novel, The God of Small Things, presents an often bewildering mix of different times: images, stories, and sensations from the past blend together with present moments and even future experiences. Critics have noted this temporal blending and have cited this feature as reflecting the novel’s magical realism, or postcolonialism, or postmodernism, which are all associated with various forms of time play.1 Indeed, as writers from Joyce to Woolf to Rushdie remind us, time is always to some extent a mixture, as the present must be understood as a complex amalgamation and negotiation of past moments. Roy’s …
Locas Al Rescate: The Transnational Hauntings Of Queer Cubanidad, LáZaro Lima
Locas Al Rescate: The Transnational Hauntings Of Queer Cubanidad, LáZaro Lima
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
“Locas al Rescate: The Transnational Hauntings of Queer Cubanidad” (originally published in Cuba Transnational) offers a significant contribution both to transnational American Studies and to gender studies. In telling the insider story of the alternative identity formation, practices, and forms of “rescue” initiated by the affective activism of the Cuban American society in drag in 1990s Miami/South Beach, Lima resuscitates the liberatory gestures of a subculture defined by its pursuit of its own acceptance, value, and freedom. With their aesthetic and political life on a raft, the gay micro-communities inside Cuban America asserted their own islandic space, Lima observes, …

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
En este artículo se presenta un análisis tanto del texto como de la representación de la obra Llueve en Barcelona, de Pau Miró. El texto del artículo se acompaña de la grabación del espectáculo por el CDT.
En los pequeños cuadros de la cotidianidad, diez en total, que constituyen la estructura de Llueve en Barcelona, del dramaturgo catalán Pau Miró, se vislumbran delante de los ojos del espectador destellos fugaces del paisaje barcelonés. La plaza de la Universidad, el CaixaForum, el barrio del Raval, la Barceloneta, el Mar Mediterráneo, el Camp Nou, la Zona Universitaria, el Hospital del …

Indígenas, Indigenistas E Indigeneidad En El Cine Latinoamericano Reciente: Video Nas Aldeias, Juan Mora Catlett, Claudia Llosa, Claudia Ferman
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
Resumen
El ensayo propone un marco crítico transnacional y transmediático, que permite una perspectiva comparatista y transcultural. Esta aproximación crítica se aplica a la reflexión de un breve corpus de películas extraídas de la vasta producción audiovisual asociada con la representación de voces indígenas/indigenistas, en el espacio nacional y continental, en los últimos años. Se propone que esta producción, que se gesta dentro y en asociación con movimientos políticos, sociales y culturales de implicaciones históricas, responden al acontecimiento de la indigeneidad, noción propuesta por Jeff Himpele, antropólogo y documentalista. Las películas que se discuten son: Pïrínop (Mi primer contacto, Brasil, …
Argentine Novel After The Recovery Of Democracy: 1983-2006, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez
Argentine Novel After The Recovery Of Democracy: 1983-2006, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
Argentine fiction written after the last military dictatorship (1976-1983) can be classified into two major strands: one which started during the 1960s and continues to this day, and another that began in the mid-1990s and has strengthened in recent years.
The Village As Cold War Site: Experts, Development, And The History Of Rural Reconstruction, Nicole Sackley
The Village As Cold War Site: Experts, Development, And The History Of Rural Reconstruction, Nicole Sackley
History Faculty Publications
This article examines ‘the village’ as a category of development knowledge used by policymakers and experts to remake the ‘Third World’ during the Cold War. The idea of the village as a universal category of underdevelopment, capable of being remade by expert-led social reform, structured efforts to win the ‘hearts and minds’ of people from Asia to Latin America and Africa. Rooted in a transnational interwar movement for rural reconstruction, village projects were transformed in the 1950s and 1960s by a scientization of development that narrowed the range of experts in the field and by Cold War politics that increasingly …
Peace Corps At 50: Bringing The World Back Home, Nicole Sackley
Peace Corps At 50: Bringing The World Back Home, Nicole Sackley
History Faculty Publications
Both the critics and defenders of the Peace Corps judge the organization on its ability to change other nations' views of the United States, either by offering technical assistance or by making friends for the United States in the world. What is missing from these debates is a frank acknowledgment that the Peace Corps teaches Americans as much as it serves the world. The organization's greatest value may be in "bringing the world back home" through its more than 200,000 former volunteers.
Narratives Of Development: Models, Spectacles, And Calculability In Nick Cullather's The Hungry World, Nicole Sackley
Narratives Of Development: Models, Spectacles, And Calculability In Nick Cullather's The Hungry World, Nicole Sackley
History Faculty Publications
To describe The Hungry World: America's Cold War Battle Against Poverty in Asia as a history of the green revolution does not begin to convey the ambition and rewards of Nick Cullather's new book. In less than three hundred pages, Hungry World offers a detailed diplomatic, intellectual, and cultural history that spans more than a century and three continents. Cullather deepens and revises our understanding of the "green revolution" as a history of the Rockefeller Foundation and its "transfer" of agricultural technology from Mexico to Asia, in part by showing how the green revolution's intellectual and political construction involved a …
Church Burnings, Eric S. Yellin
Church Burnings, Eric S. Yellin
History Faculty Publications
On 15 September 1963 a bomb exploded in the basement of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala. The ensuing fire and death of four little girls placed the violence of white supremacy on the front pages of the nation’s newspapers. It also entered the 16th Street Church into a long history of attacks against houses of worship in the American South. Though churches burn for any number of reasons, including accident and insurance fraud, church arson in southern culture has frequently been associated with a symbolic assault on a community’s core institution.
Mapping Time, Edward L. Ayers
Mapping Time, Edward L. Ayers
History Faculty Publications
Our tools for dealing with terrestrial space are well-developed and becoming more refined and ubiquitous every day. GIS has long established its dominion, Google permits us to range over the world and down to our very rooftops, and cars and cell phones locate us in space at every moment. It is hardly surprising that geography and mapping suddenly seem important in new ways. Historians have always loved maps and have long felt a kinship with geographers. The very first atlases, compiled six hundred years ago, were historical atlases. But space and time remain uncomfortable—if ever-present and ever-active—companions in the human …
Education, Elisabeth Rose Gruner
Education, Elisabeth Rose Gruner
English Faculty Publications
In both Keywords (Williams 1983a) and New Keywords (Bennett, Grossberg, and Morris 2005), "education" (Keywords has "educate") is primarily an institutional practice, which, after the late eighteenth century, is increasingly formalized and universalized in Western countries. Bearing the twin senses of "to lead forth" (from the Latin educare) and "to bring up" (from the Latin educare), "education" appears chiefly as an action practiced by adults on children. The Oxford English Dictionary thus defines the terms as "the systematic instruction, schooling, or training given to the young in preparation for the work of life."
Inside And Outside Southern Whiteness: Film Viewing, The Frame, And The Racing Of Space In Yoknapatawpha, Peter Lurie
Inside And Outside Southern Whiteness: Film Viewing, The Frame, And The Racing Of Space In Yoknapatawpha, Peter Lurie
English Faculty Publications
Though neither film nor film viewing is ever named in As I Lay Dying, both the apparatus of cinema and what we might term its sociohistorical effects are evoked powerfully by and in the novel. These include the passing before the reader’s “gaze” of the discrete, separate “frames” of the various characters’ monologues, as well as, in particular section, a fascination with watching machinery that resembled the interest of early film biewers in the cinematic apparatus (see Doane 108).
If Vardaman and his family are not explicitly depicted as film viewers, they nevertheless show signs of what has been …
Book Review: Understanding The Book Of Mormon, Terryl Givens
Book Review: Understanding The Book Of Mormon, Terryl Givens
English Faculty Publications
With over 150 million copies in circulation, the Book of Mormon has yet to find its niche in historical, religious or literary studies. Largely ignored by scholars and berated by Evangelicals, the text may find a more successful path to a larger audience, hopes historian Grant Hardy, if historical and religious questions are bracketed in deference to the work’s surprisingly complex and interesting literary dimensions
Preface: Monsters And Mormons, Terryl Givens
Preface: Monsters And Mormons, Terryl Givens
English Faculty Publications
In the nineteenth century, Mormonism seemed grist for everybody's mill. Humorists like Artemus Ward and Mark Twain made hay out of polygamy; conspiracy theorists like Thomas deWitt Talmage imputed President Garfield's assassination to the Mormons; pseudo-memoirists like "Maria Ward" recounted their seduction, imprisonment, and torture at the hands of Mormon mesmerists; the Republican jump-started their political party with a promise to expunge the Mormon "relic of barbarism"; and pulp fiction writers and serious novelists alike fueled sales with stories of bloodthirsty Danites, lecherous elders, and grief maddened Mormon wives who murdered competitors.
Book Review: The Mormon Menace: Violence And Anti-Mormonism In The Postbellum South, Terryl Givens
Book Review: The Mormon Menace: Violence And Anti-Mormonism In The Postbellum South, Terryl Givens
English Faculty Publications
“Whereas anti-Mormon violence had been characteristic of virtually every northern locale of Mormon settlement during the antebellum period,” Patrick Mason writes in his history of the subject, “violent assaults on Mormon missionaries became an increasingly southern practice in the years after the Civil War” (93). What distinguishes Mason’s book from other chapters in the sad saga of religious persecution is his excellent analysis of the complexities that result when political agendas, regional norms and interests, and theories on the proper role and limits of government all collide in the face of religious heterodoxy. Virtually all late nineteenth-century citizens and politicians …

Book Review Panel: When Souls Had Wings: Pre-Mortal Existence In Western Thought, Terryl Givens, James L. Siebach, Dana M. Pike, Jesse D. Hurlbut, David B. Paxman
English Faculty Publications
On October 13, 2011, BYU Studies sponsored a program reviewing Terryl Givens’s important Oxford book on the idea of the premortal existence of souls in various lines of Western philosophy and religion. Because this first volume of its kind covers literature from so many different civilizations, the editors of BYU Studies saw no way to do this book justice without involving a panel of reviewers from several disciplines. After portions of Robert Fuller’s forthcoming review in Church History were read, the program proceeded with reviews, responses, and open discussion.
