Book Description
Futurism Studies in its canonical form has followed in the steps of Marinetti's concept of Futurisme mondial, according to which Futurism had its centre in Italy and a large number of satellites around Europe and the rest of the globe. Consequently, authors of textbook histories of Futurism focus their attention on Italy, add a chapter or two on Russia and dedicate next to no attention to developments in other parts of the world. Futurism Studies tends to sees in Marinetti's movement the font and mother of all subsequent avant-gardes and deprecates the non-European variants as mere 'derivatives'. Vol. 7 of the International Yearbook of Futurism Studies will focus on one of these regions outside Europe and demonstrate that the heuristic model of centre – periphery is faulty and misleading, as it ignores the originality and inventiveness of art and literature in Latin America. Futurist tendencies in both Spanish and Portuguese-speaking countries may have been, in part, 'influenced' by Italian Futurism, but they certainly did no 'derive' from it. The shift towards modernity took place in Latin America more or less in parallel to the economic progress made in the underdeveloped countries of Europe. Italy and Russia have often been described as having originated Futurism because of their backwardness compared to the industrial powerhouses England, Germany and France. According to this narrative, Spain and Portugal occupied a position of semi-periphery. They had channelled dominant cultural discourses from the centre nations into the colonies. However, with the rise of modernity and the emergence of independence movements, cultural discourses in the colonies undertook a major shift. The revolt of the European avant-garde against academic art found much sympathy amongst Latin American artists, as they were engaged in a similar battle against the canonical discourses of colonial rule. One can therefore detect many parallels between the European and Latin American avant-garde movements. This includes the varieties of Futurism, to which Yearbook 2017 will be dedicated. In Europe, the avant-garde had a complex relationship to tradition, especially its 'primitivist' varieties. In Latin America, the avant-garde also sought to uncover and incorporate alternative, i.e. indigenous traditions. The result was a hybrid form of art and literature that showed many parallels to the European avant-garde, but also had other sources of inspiration. Given the large variety of indigenous cultures on the American continent, it was only natural that many heterogeneous mixtures of Futurism emerged there. Yearbook 2017 explores this plurality of Futurisms and the cultural traditions that influenced them. Contributions focus on the intertextual character of Latin American Futurisms, interpret works of literature and fine arts within their local setting, consider modes of production and consumption within each culture as well as the forms of interaction with other Latin American and European centres. 14 essays locate Futurism within the complex network of cultural exchange, unravel the Futurist contribution to the complex interrelations between local and the global cultures in Latin America and reveal the dynamic dialogue as well as the multiple forms of cross-fertilization that existed amongst them.

La Escritura de Mario Vargas Llosa, heredera de las vanguardias
Author: Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : es
Pages : 356
Book Description
Este estudio se ocupa de la influencia que las vanguardias tienen en el marco mental de Mario Vargas Llosa en el momento de la concepción y la realización de su trabajo que se concreta en todas sus novelas. Todas ellas están contaminadas con el espíritu de las vanguardias hasta el punto que llegamos a la conclusión de que Vargas Llosa nunca ha salido de las vanguardias, y es por esta razón por la que, en el diseño de nuestro estudio buscamos las fuentes artísticas y movimientos literarios: Francia (Breton y los surrealistas) y América (Asturias, Arguedas, García Márquez, Rulfo, Borges, pero también Faulkner o Joyce) que le sirven de andamiaje a la hora de componer sus obras. Hemosanalizado laproduccióndeVargasLlosa,conunenfoque vanguardista, para entrever sus claves y así entender la estructura profunda de los mecanismos que utiliza en sus esquemas mentales en la construcción de sus novelas, y que muchos de los personajes que crea Vargas Llosa van a la búsqueda de su identidad artística, para ello utiliza los flash-backs y flash-forwards, con los que organiza su existencia. Podríamos decir que todos los escritos de Vargas Llosa tienden al exceso, no sólo en términos de su ciclópea producción sino también por el número de bloques que utiliza en sus novelas. A saber: el prostíbulo como un elemento fundamental que utiliza de forma continua; pero también el mito (el mito griego, principalmente); los sueños como argumento y como contexto; el lenguaje sin trabas; el sexo como método indiscutible de la libertad y, sobre todo, un elemento fundamentalmente freudiano: la asociación libre de ideas que, aunque en un principio era un elemento clínico para el psicoanálisis, pronto se convirtió en un instrumento excelente para la creación artística. Este es su tema: el arte, pero también otros, como la familia, la nostalgia, la libertad, la derrota, la frustración, la angustia, el amor o la falta de él, la autodestrucción, el ritmo de vida, la ambigüedad de las experiencias de la vida, la utopía permanente y su autobiografía que abunda en toda su producción. Creo que lo he conseguido.

Book Description
The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature is by far the most comprehensive work of its kind ever written. Its three volumes cover the whole sweep of Latin American literature (including Brazilian) from pre-Colombian times to the present, and contain chapters on Latin American writing in the USA. Volume 3 is devoted partly to the history of Brazilian literature, from the earliest writing through the colonial period and the Portuguese-language traditions of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; and partly also to an extensive bibliographical section in which annotated reading lists relating to the chapters in all three volumes of The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature are presented. These bibliographies are a unique feature of the History, further enhancing its immense value as a reference work.

Equestrian Rebels
Author: Roberto CantúPublisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443893218
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Mariano Azuela (Mexico, 1873–1952) was a medical doctor by profession, recipient of Mexico’s Premio Nacional de Literatura (1949), a distinguished member of El Colegio Nacional and, by mid-century, one of Mexico’s leading novelists and literary critics. The author of novels, novellas, plays, biographies, and literary criticism, Azuela served as field doctor under Francisco Villa during the Mexican Revolution and, after Villa’s military defeats in 1915, published Los de abajo (The Underdogs, 1915) while in exile in El Paso, Texas. This book of essays commemorates the first centenary of Los de abajo, and traces its impact on twentieth-century autobiographies, memoirs and, more specifically, on the Novel of the Mexican Revolution. Equestrian Rebels: Critical Perspectives on Mariano Azuela and the Novel of the Mexican Revolution includes a full-length introduction and nineteen essays by leading international scholars who study Azuela and other novelists of the Mexican Revolution – such as Martín Luis Guzmán, Nellie Campobello and, among others, José Rubén Romero – from current, yet contrasting and innovative theoretical perspectives. Especially written for this volume, these critical essays are grouped into five sections that separately probe and analyze Azuela’s realism and contemporary affinities with photography; Azuela’s literary criticism; centennial studies on Los de abajo; critical approaches to other novels by Azuela; three independent analyses of Nellie Campobello’s Cartucho (1931); and a concluding section on literary representations of Mexican colonialism and revolution in the narratives of Juan Rulfo (El llano en llamas), Carlos Fuentes (Gringo viejo), and David Toscana (El último lector). This book will be of importance to scholars, teachers, students, and the general reader interested in topics related to the literary, cultural, and political forces and conflicts that led to the transformation of Mexico into a modern nation.
Charles Deering and Ramón Casas / Charles Deering Y Ramón Casas
Author: Isabel Coll MirabentPublisher: Northwestern University Press
ISBN: 0810128438
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
This lavishly illustrated, bilingual art book presents drawings by Ramón Casas in the Charles Deering McCormick Library of Special Collections at the Northwestern University Library and oil paintings by Casas from private collections and the Art Institute of Chicago. Charles Deering and Ramón Casas follows the development and dramatic dissolution of a three-way friendship that connected the Spanish painter Ramón Casas (1866–1932); the Chicago industrialist Charles Deering (1852–1927), who was a collector and admirer of Casas’s work as well as a patron of Northwestern University; and the Spanish artist Miguel Utrillo (1862–1934), Casas’s lifelong friend and the father of the French painter Maurice Utrillo. Casas introduced Deering to Sitges, a beach town near Barcelona, Spain, where the latter created a palatial estate with a museum to house his art collection. Miguel Utrillo served as director of the museum. The text explores the treasures housed at Maricel and what happened among the three men that led Casas to abandon Utrillo and Deering to depart Spain, taking his art collection with him.
