Book Description
Focusing on the influential life and works of the Haitian political writer and statesman, Baron de Vastey (1781-1820), in this book Marlene L. Daut examines the legacy of Vastey’s extensive writings as a form of what she calls black Atlantic humanism, a discourse devoted to attacking the enlightenment foundations of colonialism. Daut argues that Vastey, the most important secretary of Haiti’s King Henry Christophe, was a pioneer in a tradition of deconstructing colonial racism and colonial slavery that is much more closely associated with twentieth-century writers like W.E.B. Du Bois, Frantz Fanon, and Aimé Césaire. By expertly forging exciting new historical and theoretical connections among Vastey and these later twentieth-century writers, as well as eighteenth- and nineteenth-century black Atlantic authors, such as Phillis Wheatley, Olaudah Equiano, William Wells Brown, and Harriet Jacobs, Daut proves that any understanding of the genesis of Afro-diasporic thought must include Haiti’s Baron de Vastey.

This book will serve to promote international collaboration, enhance theory utilization and development, identify biases and barriers in the field, accrue critical mass for a discipline that is often marginalized, and to minimize the pervasive US-centric view of the field.

Book Description
Pushing Past the Human in Latin American Cinema brings together fourteen scholars to analyze Latin American cinema in dialogue with recent theories of posthumanism and ecocriticism. Together they grapple with how Latin American filmmakers have attempted to "push past the human," and destabilize the myth of anthropocentric exceptionalism that has historically been privileged by cinema and has led to the current climate crisis. While some chapters question the very nature of this enterprise—whether cinema should or even could actualize such a maneuver beyond the human—others signal the ways in which the category of the "human" itself is interrogated by Latin American cinema, revealed to be a fiction that excludes more than it unifies. This volume explores how the moving image reinforces or contests the division between human and nonhuman, and troubles the settler epistemic partition of culture and nature that is at the core of the climate crisis. As the first volume to specifically address how such questions are staged by Latin American cinema, this book brings together analysis of films that respond to environmental degradation, as well as those that articulate a posthumanist ethos that blurs the line between species.

Book Description
"El Premio de Ensayo Crítico invitaba a pensar problemas que recorrieran el arte argentino durante los últimos años, también sobre un corpus de obras o exhibiciones realizadas por artistas argentinos en los últimos quince años; estas eran unas proposiciones abiertas que no podría haber emprendido sin meditar antes sobre otras variables que exceden al arte e implican algo más grande. Algo que indecorosamente podría ser llamado mundo. Quería pensar a partir de aquella noche que la escatología cibernética había bautizado Y2K, es decir desde el inicio del siglo. También, percibiendo como André Breton que "la sensibilidad jamás cambia radicalmente", otra cuestión disparó este ensayo: ¿cómo se filtra la modernidad en el arte contemporáneo? Una modernidad entendida como un sistema heterotópico, integrado por manifiestos, vanguardias y retaguardias, técnicas, voluntades subversivas."
