Ecos Góticos En La Novela Y El Cine Del Cono Sur, Nadina Estefania Olmedo Jan 2010

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 Jan 2010

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 Jan 2010

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 …

Eva Vive En Otra Parte: Cambio De Signo E Identidad En Eva Perón De Copi, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

Por lo que respecta al siglo XIX, el viaje a París para la intelectualidad de América Latina fue una experiencia que determinó su actitud ante la problemática de sus respectivos países y que, si bien empezó siendo un viaje de aprendizaje y crecimiento, para algunos de ellos, terminó convirtiéndose en un proceso enajenante que los situaría en un no man’s land social.


The Weeping Land: Postcolonialism In La Llorona, Kirianna Marie Florez Dec 2009

The Weeping Land: Postcolonialism In La Llorona, Kirianna Marie Florez

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

Legends of weeping or vengeful women occur in diverse cultures throughout the world, such as Die Weisse Frau in Germany (Kirtley 157), the shrieking banshees in Ireland (Chiu), Kuchisake-onna in Japan (Wells), and La Llorona (“the weeping woman”) in the American continents. La Llorona legends can be found throughout parts of Latin America and the Southwest United States, but are most common in Mexico and parts of the Southwest where there is a high population of Chicanos/Chicanas and Mexican-Americans. The La Llorona legends vary remarkably throughout the places of their dispersion, and the different variations often highlight local fears, concerns, …


“Imprólogo” De Octavio Paz. Apuntes Poético-Poetológicos Sobre La Poesía De Vasko Popa, Ilka Kressner Nov 2009

“Imprólogo” De Octavio Paz. Apuntes Poético-Poetológicos Sobre La Poesía De Vasko Popa, Ilka Kressner

Languages, Literatures and Cultures Faculty Scholarship

This study is a close-reading of Octavio Paz' "Imprólogo" (Árbol adentro), a poem that served as prologue to the fi rst anthology of poetry of the Serbian poet Vasko Popa. I propose to analyze the text under three aspects: first, it is a poetic practice that evolves through the examination of the poetry of Paz' friend and colleague. Second, "Imprólogo" is a study of the value of negation, a lyrical exercise carried out through the repeated deferral to being carried out. Thirdly, the poem offers a new, poetological reflection on intertextuality, conceived as a poetic dialogue in suspense. Thus, Paz …
