The Writing of Elena Poniatowska
Author: Beth E. Jörgensen
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 9780292740334
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
Elena Poniatowska is one of Latin America's most distinguished and innovative living writers. Advocacy of women and the poor in their struggle for social and economic justice, denunciation of the repression of that struggle, and a tendency to blur the boundaries between conventional literary forms characterize her writing practice. Asserting that Poniatowska's writing has been uniquely shaped by her experience as a journalist and interviewer, Beth Jörgensen addresses four important texts: Palabras cruzadas (interviews), Hasta no verte Jesús mío (testimonial novel), La noche de Tlatelolco (oral history), and La "Flor de Lis" (novel of development). She also treats related pieces, including Lilus Kikus (short fiction), De noche vienes (short stories), Fuerte es el silencio (chronicles), and several of Poniatowska's essays. Her readings incorporate a variety of critical approaches within a feminist framework.

Representations and Images of Frontiers and Borders
Author: Katarzyna Nowak-McNeice
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527577570
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
This collection gathers a variety of scholars representing various methodological perspectives and applying diverse critical lenses to analyze the idea of borders, borderlands, frontiers, and liminal space, as they are represented in literature and philosophy. The idea of the border and frontier is perhaps more important than ever: under the siege of COVID-19, with shattered illusions of a post-racial world, when a global effort is required as a response to a crisis that does not respect national or regional borders, we need to reconsider what frontiers and borders mean to us, and how to best understand them so that they do not divide, but point to areas of common knowledge, collective experiences, and shared humanity. Drawing upon examples from different continents (Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe) and from diverse specific places (such as the Mexico-US border, or the contested Palestinian frontiers), and using a variety of critical perspectives (evoking Gloria Anzaldua, Jorge Luis Borges, and Edward Said, for instance), this volume explores the idea of frontiers and borders in order to comment on their representations in literature, philosophy, music, and cinema, and on the human condition in general.

Broken Bars
Author: Kay S. García
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Elena Poniatowska, Angeles Mastretta, Silvia Molina, and Brianda Domecq are Mexican writers whose works are beginning to attract substantial critical attention. To date, their work is not well known in the United States nor can readers obtain much information about the writers themselves. By combining in-depth interviews with critical essays, Kay Garcia provides an invaluable service to those who would like to have a better understanding of contemporary Mexican writing. Using a feminist literary critical approach, Garcia explores the connections between the writers' lives and their works. Both the writers and their protagonists have attempted to shape realities for themselves that contradict official discourses and boundaries. Unlike many writers of fiction today, these women give voice to the marginalized elements of Mexican society. The interviews, critical essays, and bibliography of Broken Bars will serve to make their works more accessible to readers in the United States.
