Book Description
La gran cuestión de la lectura exige ser afrontada como verdadera teoría general; esto es, como amplia construcción crítica y retórica y al fin en tanto actividad global estética en el marco del pensamiento teórico y los avatares culturales que únicamente pueden ser asumidos a través de una concepción de la continuidad que aquí eminentemente atañe a la escritura y a la ciencia humanística. Durante las últimas décadas del siglo xx tuvo lugar una extensa producción historiográfica acerca de la lectura, sin duda consecuencia de la especial evolución de algunas escuelas o tendencias de estudios históricos que trasladaron su foco de interés de la historia política y económica a los ámbitos de lo que en general podríamos denominar microhistoria. No se ofrece aquí un proyecto estético de la lectura desgajando su entidad, si es que esto fuera posible, de la realidad histórica, pero desde luego, en ningún caso, ni una teoría estructural-formalista, ni un estudio historiográfico más o menos valioso al modo de los frecuentemente difundidos.

Author: Cosmopolitan Desires
Author: Mariano SiskindPublisher: Northwestern University Press
ISBN: 0810167786
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
Mariano Siskind’s groundbreaking debut book redefines the scope of world literature, particularly regarding the place of Latin America in its imaginaries and mappings. In Siskind’s formulation, world literature is a modernizing discursive strategy, a way in which cultures negotiate their aspirations to participate in global networks of cultural exchange, and an original tool to reorganize literary history. Working with novels, poems, essays, travel narratives, and historical documents, Siskind reads the way Latin American literary modernity was produced as a global relation, from the rise of planetary novels in the 1870s and the cosmopolitan imaginaries of modernism at the turn of the twentieth century, to the global spread of magical realism. With its unusual breadth of reference and firm but unobtrusive grounding in philosophy, literary theory, and psychoanalysis, Cosmopolitan Desires will have a major impact in the fields of Latin American studies and comparative literature.

World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality
Author: Gesine MüllerPublisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110641135
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise offers a wide range of contributions approaching the blind spots of the globally oriented Humanities for phenomena that in one way or another have gone beyond the discourses, aesthetics, and political positions of liberal cosmopolitanism and neoliberal globalization. Departing basically (but not exclusively) from different examples of Latin American literatures and cultures in globalized contexts, this volume provides innovative insights into critical readings of World Literature and its related conceptualizations. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a mustread for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.
The Dialect of Modernism
Author: Michael NorthPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0195359100
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
The Dialect of Modernism uncovers the crucial role of racial masquerade and linguistic imitation in the emergence of literary modernism. Rebelling against the standard language, and literature written in it, modernists, such as Joseph Conrad, Gertrude Stein, T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, and William Carlos Williams reimagined themselves as racial aliens and mimicked the strategies of dialect speakers in their work. In doing so, they made possible the most radical representational strategies of modern literature, which emerged from their attack on the privilege of standard language. At the same time, however, another movement, identified with Harlem, was struggling to free itself from the very dialect the modernists appropriated, at least as it had been rendered by two generations of white dialect writers. For writers such as Claude McKay, Jean Toomer, and Zora Neale Hurston, this dialect became a barrier as rigid as the standard language itself. Thus, the two modern movements, which arrived simultaneously in 1922, were linked and divided by their different stakes in the same language. In The Dialect of Modernism, Michael North shows, through biographical and historical investigation, and through careful readings of major literary works, that however different they were, the two movements are inextricably connected, and thus, cannot be considered in isolation. Each was marked, for good and bad, by the other.
