In this first book-length study to compare the "new novels" of both Spanish America and Brazil, the authors deftly examine the differing perceptions of ambiguity as they apply to questions of gender and the participation of females and males in the establishment of Latin American narrative models. Their daring thesis: the Brazilian new novel developed a more radical form than its better-known Spanish-speaking cousin because it had a significantly different approach to the crucial issues of ambiguity and gender and because so many of its major practitioners were women. As a wise strategy for assessing the canonical new novels from Latin America, the coupling of ambiguity and gender enables Payne and Fitz to discuss how borders--literary, generic, and cultural--are maintained, challenged, or crossed. Their conclusions illuminate the contributions of the new novel in terms of experimental structures and narrative techniques as well as the significant roles of voice, theme, and language. Using Jungian theory and a poststructural optic, the authors also demonstrate how the Latin American new novel faces such universal subjects as myth, time, truth, and reality. Perhaps the most original aspect of their study lies in its analysis of Brazil's strong female tradition. Here, issues such as alternative visions, contrasexuality, self-consciousness, and ontological speculation gain new meaning for the future of the novel in Latin America. With its comparative approach and its many bilingual quotations, Ambiguity and Gender in the New Novel of Brazil and Spanish America offers an engaging picture of the marked differences between the literary traditions of Portuguese-speaking and Spanish-speaking America and, thus, new insights into the distinctive mindsets of these linguistic cultures.

Bandits seem ubiquitous in Latin American culture. Even contemporary actors of violence are framed by narratives that harken back to old images of the rural bandit, either to legitimize or delegitimize violence, or to intervene in larger conflicts within or between nation-states. However, the bandit seems to escape a straightforward definition, since the same label can apply to the leader of thousands of soldiers (as in the case of Villa) or to the humble highwayman eking out a meager living by waylaying travelers at machete point. Dabove presents the reader not with a definition of the bandit, but with a series of case studies showing how the bandit trope was used in fictional and non-fictional narratives by writers and political leaders, from the Mexican Revolution to the present. By examining cases from Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Peru, and Venezuela, from Pancho Villa's autobiography to Hugo Chavez's appropriation of his "outlaw" grandfather, Dabove reveals how bandits function as a symbol to expose the dilemmas or aspirations of cultural and political practices, including literature as a social practice and as an ethical experience.

In contemporary societies privatization has long ceased to be just an economic concept; rather, it must increasingly be made to refer to the ongoing shrinking of the public space under the impact of the representation of individual lives and images, which cuts across all discourses, genres and media to become one of the primary means of production of culture. This volume is intended to cover such an historical, social and intellectual ground, where self-representation comes to the fore. Targeting mostly an academic readership but certainly also of interest to the general educated public, it collects a wide range of essays dealing with diverse modes of life writing and portraying from a variety of perspectives and focusing on different historical periods and media. It thus offers itself as a major contribution to a better understanding of the world we live in: its past legacy and present configuration.ContentsIntroduction: Signposts of the Self in Modernity Part I.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Romanistik - Portugiesische Philologie, Note: 1,3, Universität zu Köln (Romanisches Seminar), Veranstaltung: Seminar: Mündliche Erzähltradition in der brasilianischen Literatur, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der folgenden Hausarbeit möchte ich aufzeigen, wie die brasilianische Literatur auf der Suche nach einer eigenständigen „brasilianischen“ Form eine neue Form des Ausdrucks für sich gefunden hat, die unter anderen in einer neuen Gattung, der „mündlich erzählten Lebensgeschichte“ mündete. Bei der Betrachtung der mündlich erzählten Lebensgeschichte möchte ich mich auf den Roman „Grande Sertão: Veredas“ von Guimarães Rosa beziehen, der einer der Ersten war, der diese Form des Erzählens in dieser Ausprägung für sich fand. Nach einem kurzen geschichtlichen Überblick über die Haupttendenzen bei der Entwicklung einer „brasilianischen“ Literatur konzentriere ich mich besonders auf den Aspekt der Oralisierung der brasilianischen Literatur, die ihre Perfektion möglicherweise in Form der „mündlich erzählten Lebensgeschichte“ fand. Hierbei möchte ich die Hauptunterschiede von gesprochener Sprache und Schrift sowie mögliche Lösungen und Schwierigkeiten für die Übertragung von Mündlichkeit ins Schriftliche aufzeigen, und diese anhand von Beispielen aus Rosas Roman vertiefen.
