Ideologías Y Literatura - (Serie Nueva América) by Mabel Moraña & Javier Campos (Paperback)

About the Book

The study of the multiple articulations that link literary and cultural production with the field of ideologies constitutes, especially in the case of Latin America, a significant angle of exploration and analysis. As an homage to one of the most important representatives of this critical approach, this book brings together articles on literature, culture and politics in different contexts in Spain, Latin America and Brazil. From the Andean case to the Canto al general, from Mariatégui to Che Guevara, from women's literature to theories on 'the end of history', this book presents provocative and theoretically updated proposals that are central to contemporary Latin Americanism. These will be essential for those who are focused on the study of the relationship between culture and human rights, testimony, cultural hybridity, modernity, the mixing of national cultures, social identity, collective memory and literary historiography.

Book Synopsis

El estudio de las multiples articulaciones que vinculan la producción literaria y cultural con el campo de las ideologías constituye, sobre todo para el caso de América Latina, uno de los ángulos cruciales de exploración y análisis. Este libro, que rinde homenaje a uno de los más importantes representantes de esta orientación crítica, reúne artículos sobre literatura, cultura y política en distintos contextos de España, Hispanoamérica y Brasil. Desde el caso andino al Canto al general, desde Mariatégui al Che Guevara, desde la literatura femenina a las teorías sobre "el fin de la história", este libro presenta propuestas provocativas y teóricamente actualizadas que son centrales al latinoamericanismo contemporáneo. Las mismas resultarán imprescindibles para todos aquellos dedicados al estudio de la relación entre cultura y derechos humanos, el testimonio, la hibridez cultural, la modernidad, el mestizaje de culturas nacionales, la identidad social, la memoria colectiva y la historiografía literaria.
