Algunos «animales feroces» en el teatro venezolano

Algunos «animales feroces» en el teatro venezolano

Autor: Carlos Dimeo-Álvarez

Número de Páginas: 344

This monograph studies the development of Venezuelan theater in the 70s, characterized by psychological, physical as well as verbal violence and cruelty. Throughout the decade, violence pervaded not only drama, but every sphere of social, political and cultural life in Venezuela. While these dramaturgies of violence disrupted the aesthetic field in many ways, they also interpreted the development of Venezuelan society.

The Latin American Subaltern Studies Reader

The Latin American Subaltern Studies Reader

Autor: Iliana Yamileth Rodriguez , María Milagros López

Número de Páginas: 473

Sharing a postrevolutionary sympathy with the struggles of the poor, the contributors to this first comprehensive collection of writing on subalternity in Latin America work to actively link politics, culture, and literature. Emerging from a decade of work and debates generated by a collective known as the Latin American Studies Group, the volume privileges the category of the subaltern over that of class, as contributors focus on the possibilities of investigating history from below. In addition to an overview by Ranajit Guha, essay topics include nineteenth-century hygiene in Latin American countries, Rigoberta Menchú after the Nobel, commentaries on Haitian and Argentinian issues, the relationship between gender and race in Bolivia, and ungovernability and tragedy in Peru. Providing a radical critique of elite culture and of liberal, bourgeois, and modern epistemologies and projects, the essays included here prove that Latin American Subaltern Studies is much more than the mere translation of subaltern studies from South Asia to Latin America. Contributors. Marcelo Bergman, John Beverley, Robert Carr, Sara Castro-Klarén, Michael Clark, Beatriz González Stephan, Ranajit Guha, ...

Music and Identity in Venezuela

Music and Identity in Venezuela

Autor: Adriana Ponce

Número de Páginas: 427

Venezuelan music has remained largely unnoticed in the academic English literature. Boasting a tremendous wealth of traditions, it displays influences from the Spanish, indigenous, and enslaved African communities that populated the territory from the “conquest” on and offers a tremendous diversity of genres and styles that vary by region, occasion, time, and sometimes ethnic influences. This book presents critical discussions of some of these traditions in connection with the issue of identity. The discussions capture country and city life, illustrate foundational myths, bring secular traditions closer to Christianity, explore surviving cultural strategies, et cetera. They also analyze the interface between Venezuelan identity and European classical music. The book displays diversity of perspectives in terms of (a) subject matter, as it includes traditional and concert musics; (b) disciplines on which the inquiries are grounded, as it includes essays by scholars and artists from musicology, performance, composition, history, cultural history, and education; and (c) epistemological approaches, as it includes critical, historical, and ethnographic research.

Dancing Jacobins

Dancing Jacobins

Autor: Rafael Sánchez

Número de Páginas: 450

Since independence from Spain, a trope has remained pervasive in Latin America’s republican imaginary: that of an endless antagonism pitting civilization against barbarism as irreconcilable poles within which a nation’s life unfolds. This book apprehends that trope not just as the phantasmatic projection of postcolonial elites fearful of the popular sectors but also as a symptom of a stubborn historical predicament: the cyclical insistence with which the subaltern populations menacingly return to the nation’s public spaces in the form of crowds. Focused on Venezuela but relevant to the rest of Latin America, and drawing on a rich theoretical literature including authors like Derrida, Foucault, Lacoue-Labarthe, Nancy, Lyotard, Laclau, Taussig, and others, Dancing Jacobins is a genealogical investigation of the intrinsically populist “monumental governmentality” that in response to this predicament began to take shape in that nation at the time of independence. Informed by a Bolivarian political theology, the nation’s representatives, or “dancing Jacobins,” recursively draw on the repertoire of busts, portraits, and equestrian statues of national heroes scattered...

Número de Páginas: 448

La estructura del volumen refleja los centros de interés de las conferencias presentadas. Los ensayos de la primera parte enfocan, desde diferentes perspectivas, las relaciones entre literatura y sociedad, sin que esta problemática esté ausente en los de las otras partes. En realidad la preocupación por la dimensión socio-política de la literatura fue un leitmotiv de las discusiones del simposio, lo que se refleja en este volumen. La segunda parte se centra en la indagación histórica, mientras que las demás partes adoptan el enfoque de género literario, con una parte intercalada que reúnen ensayos en los que algunos autores reflexionan sobre su obra y su escritura en el contexto de la literatura venezolana. El volumen se cierra con un ensayo sobre la recepción de la literatura venezolana en la Argentina para discutir, en un caso concreto, la repercusión de la literatura venezolana en América Latina.
