La Charca (1894) Y La Consagración Del Subalterno Puertorriqueño: Una Mirada Desde El Siglo Xxi Al Naturalismo De Manuel Zeno Gandía, Tania Carrasquillo Hernández
La Charca (1894) Y La Consagración Del Subalterno Puertorriqueño: Una Mirada Desde El Siglo Xxi Al Naturalismo De Manuel Zeno Gandía, Tania Carrasquillo Hernández
Faculty Publications
This article analyzes the representation of coffee plantation societies in the novel La Charca (1894) by Manuel Zeno Gandía (1855-1930). This literary text is a Puerto Rican classic and is one of the four novels included in Las Crónicas de un Mundo Enfermo (Chronicles of a Sick World). The author examines the political and economic structures developed in Puerto Rico during the nineteenth century, as portrayed in the novel. Carrasquillo Hernández pays close attention to the relations between social classes, the coffee oligarchy’s struggle, and the subjugation of workers by the hacendados (landowners) in order to promote and …

La poesía hispanoamericana actual, este “asunto tan vasto y heterogéneo” (Andrés Sánchez Robanya) es un fenómeno difícil de captar en su conjunto. No obstante, la crítica ha señalado algunos rasgos comunes de la producción lírica los últimos 20 años. Esos son, entre otros, el uso del habla coloquial, descripciones casi fenomenológicas del día a día en las grandes urbes o los barrios humildes y la inclusión de temas de actualidad, muchas veces expresados desde una óptica antiglobalizadora. Las denominaciones (en parte asignadas por los críticos, en parte de los poetas mismos) ponen en relieve el impacto de lo cotidiano y …
Trauma And The Representation Of The Unsayable In Late Twentieth-Century Fiction, Katina Rogers
Trauma And The Representation Of The Unsayable In Late Twentieth-Century Fiction, Katina Rogers
Publications and Research
This dissertation explores the ways in which several fiction writers from France, the U.S., and Latin America experiment with the form of their works in writing about traumatic experience, as they navigate the tension between a propulsion toward expression and toward silence. Some of these traumas are vast, as in Edmond Jabès’ Le livre des questions (1963-1973), which addresses not only the Holocaust, but also questions of exile and identity. Others are on a smaller scale, such as Jacques Roubaud’s Quelque chose noir (1986), Julio Cortázar's Los autonautas de la cosmopista (1983), and Macedonio Fernández’s Museo de la Novela de …
Ecos Góticos En La Novela Y El Cine Del Cono Sur, Nadina Estefania Olmedo
Ecos Góticos En La Novela Y El Cine Del Cono Sur, Nadina Estefania Olmedo
University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations
Latin American literary criticism has traditionally underestimated the significance of the Gothic aesthetic, in spite of the rich Gothic literary tradition of Latin America. Specifically in the Southern Cone - the focus of my research - there is a particular recurrence and consumption of this genre, not only in literature but also in cinema, which has not been deeply analyzed. I argue that a close examination of the Gothic and Fantastic elements in these novels and films unveils anxieties, repressions and manifestations of social decay that underlie common codes of social decency and the conventions of maintaining an oppressive social …

Chile: Mi Conquista, De Norte A Sur, Grace Cowan
CMC Senior Theses
My thesis is a creative expression in poetry about my study abroad experience in Chile. During my time in Chile I traveled all over the country and tried to experience as much of the culture as possible. These poems speak of different parts of the country that I visited and different cultural aspects to which I was exposed. The work also includes photos from my travels to accompany several of my poems. This thesis was written with the hope that others might be able to better understand my semester in Chile.
Representación De La Violencia En La Novela Del Narcotráfico Y El Cine Colombiano Contemporáneo, Claudia Ospina
Representación De La Violencia En La Novela Del Narcotráfico Y El Cine Colombiano Contemporáneo, Claudia Ospina
University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations
This dissertation analyzes the representation of violence in Colombian novels and films from the last two decades of the XX century. Aided by current theories of violence and representation on the one hand, and an interdisciplinary methodology that analyses the phenomenon of the violence of drug trafficking from different perspectives on the other, my analysis examines the challenges and limits of literary and cinematic representation as it grapples with the extreme realities of life in Colombia’s major cities. The central body of my thesis focuses on three novels and two films, selected for the marked differences that inform their generic …
