Inmigración, Nacionalismo Cultural, Campo Intelectual: El Proyecto Creador De Alberto Gerchunoff, Fernando Degiovanni Jan 2000

Inmigración, Nacionalismo Cultural, Campo Intelectual: El Proyecto Creador De Alberto Gerchunoff, Fernando Degiovanni

Publications and Research

El final de la Autobiografía (1914) de Alberto Gerchunoff (1883-1950) constituye uno de los puntos de partida más significativos a través de los cuales es posible analizar la temática de lo judío-argentino en el marco de su producción textual. El autor de Los gauchos judíos (1910) se sitúa allí frente al campo cultural de la Argentina del Centenario por medio de una serie de operaciones ideológicas que plantean una opción no sólo intelectual sino también específicamente literaria en la construcción de su proyecto creador. La afirmación: “Yo no aspiro a cantar únicamente la vida judía: soy ante todo argentino y …


Temas De Muerte E Identidad En Pasos Y Pasajero, Brian Taylor Jan 2000

Temas De Muerte E Identidad En Pasos Y Pasajero, Brian Taylor

Theses : Honours

Pasos y Pasajeros marked a transition from Uslar Pietri’s previous stories. Whilst retaining his accustomed rural geographical environment and civil war historical environment for some stories, he introduces us to urban landscapes and contemporary settings in many others. The anonymity of time and places in earlier works, gives way to defined places, periods and social environments, perhaps reflecting the evolution of Venezuela from a subsistence agrarian economy to a fledgling urban society, enabled by the exploitation of the country's oil reserves. In the works of Uslar Pietri, several themes predominate. Death and identity are two themes explored in this thesis, …


Carnality In ‘El Matadero', Lee Joan Skinner May 1999

Carnality In ‘El Matadero', Lee Joan Skinner

CMC Faculty Publications and Research

Esteban Echeverria's short story "El matadero" is generally acknowledged as a literary masterpiece in miniature. It is widely anthologized and has been called the inaugural work of Argentine short fiction, if not the first Latin American short story. Seymour Menton positions it as the first story in his influential anthology El cuento hispanoamericano and calls it "una verdadera obra de arte" (34); David William Foster refers to it as "the founding text of Argentine fiction" (Sexual Textualities 135). Although the story has been popularly and critically acclaimed, it also presents certain problems for its readers. Written by an avowed Romantic, …


In The Shadows: The Search For Identity In The Writings Of Gloria Anzaldúa, Cherrie Moraga, Sandra Cisneros, And Julia Alvarez, Marcy Wood Benincasa Jan 1999

In The Shadows: The Search For Identity In The Writings Of Gloria Anzaldúa, Cherrie Moraga, Sandra Cisneros, And Julia Alvarez, Marcy Wood Benincasa

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

For years, the voice of the Chicana has been silenced by oppression. Anglos, Mexicans, and Chicanos have intentionally created such an oppression upon Chicanas that they were never allowed to tell stories of their own ideas, fears, and dreams. They were merely meant to be a voiceless servant to the male gender.

This master’s thesis will examine the racial and gender oppression that Chicanas Cisneros, and Julia Alvarez — focusing primarily on their attempts to establish a gender have faced over the centuries, beginning with the days of Malintzin and Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, and continuing until the …

El Gaucho Como Personaje Historico En La Literatura Argentina, Nora M. C. De Sidoruk Jan 1998

El Gaucho Como Personaje Historico En La Literatura Argentina, Nora M. C. De Sidoruk

Theses : Honours

The aim of this study is to analyse how three different Argentinian writers: Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, José Hernández and Ricardo Güiraldes characterise in their work the life of the Argentinian cowboy, the gaucho. Using real life models, they describe the life and personality of this countryman after the colonial times and until the first part of the twentieth century. Domingo Faustino Sarmiento (1811-1888), an essayist, politician and educationalist, wrote Facundo in 1845, an essay about the life of the "caudillo" (chieftain) Juan Facundo Quiroga and one of the classics of Argentinian literature. Facundo is a study of the Argentinian customs …

The Poetic Development Of Panamanian Nationalism, Curtis Brown Jan 1997

The Poetic Development Of Panamanian Nationalism, Curtis Brown

Honors Theses, 1963-2015

I explored the relationship between poetry and politics in Panama. Panama is a Western Hemisphere anomaly in that no other nation in the Americas has been so dominated by another as has Panama by the United States. As a result of this hegemonous relationship, Panamanians have developed an intense mistrust and hatred for the United States. This is clearly seen in their poetry. Ant-Americanism is such a pervasive element in Latin America that we can go so far as to say that it is the defining factor of their national identity. Seeing a clear link between poetry and politics in …
