This book explores six texts from across Spanish America in which the coming-of-age story ('Bildungsroman') offers a critique of gendered selfhood as experienced in the region’s socio-cultural contexts. Looking at a range of novels from the late twentieth century, Staniland explores thematic concerns in terms of their role in elucidating a literary journey towards agency: that is, towards the articulation of a socially and personally viable female gendered identity, mindful of both the hegemonic discourses that constrain it, and the possibility of their deconstruction and reconfiguration. Myth, exile and the female body are the three central themes for understanding the personal, social and political aims of the Post-Boom women writers whose work is explored in this volume: Isabel Allende, Laura Esquivel, Ángeles Mastretta, Sylvia Molloy, Cristina Peri Rossi and Zoé Valdés. Their adoption, and adaptation, of an originally eighteenth-century and European literary genre is seen here to reshape the global canon as much as it works to reshape our understanding of gendered identities as socially constructed, culturally contingent, and open-ended.

El vértice del presente libro es el arte de inventar en la vida cotidiana y en la producción cultural en Cuba durante y después del Período Especial en Tiempos de Paz (1990-2015). Aunque el término "Período Especial" fuera una coartada retórica del gobierno para enmascarar la crisis, su significado en la experiencia, memoria y conciencia, tanto individual como colectiva, adquiere proporciones épicas de una demarcación epocal. La extraordinaria creatividad de los cubanos para "resolver" las carencias cotidianas con humor e ingenio ocupa una gran parte de las páginas que siguen. Por otro lado, la autora se detiene en las novedosas y originales invensiones de carácter literario y artístico que usan la precariedad de recursos como un estímulo para la imaginación. Dentro del corpus primario de este libro, textos clasificables como literarios (cuentos, novelas, poemas, obras teatrales) coexisten con testimonios, filmes documentales, manuales de autoayuda, actos de performance y artefactos de cultura material. Al recoger tanto el capital simbólico de la crisis como la elusiva materialidad de los 1990, Elzbieta Sklodowska recopila un archivo que, más allá de su función documental, es un homenaje al espíritu de un pueblo que inventa y se reinventa, para existir y resistir.

Mit der kubanischen Wirtschaftskrise entstanden neue literarische Gestaltungsprozesse nationaler Identitätskonstruktionen. Die vorliegende Analyse geht der zeitgenössischen Literatur Kubas nach, in der soziale, kulturelle und politische Paradoxe der post-revolutionären Weltanschauung zum Vorschein kommen und der Figur der „Insel“ bzw. „Insularität“ eine große Bedeutung für die Neukonfiguration der Nation zukommt. Die „Insularität“ drückt in literarischen Texten verschiedene Aneignungen des Raumes und somit auch eine Weltanschauungen aus. Die literarische Figur der „Insel“ kann hypothetisch als „visuelles Phänomen“ (Ette 2002) konzipiert werden, das durch soziokulturelle Umstände konfiguriert wird. Unterschiedliche postkommunistische Erfahrungen bilden sog. „erlebnisweltliche“ Repräsentationen und somit literarische und soziale Identitätsbilder. Im Verlauf der Zeit werden die Metapher der „Insel“ bzw. der „Insularität“ anders beschrieben. Erste Untersuchungen der Metapher der „Insel“ bzw. der „Insularität“ finden sich in den Texten Noche insular (Lezama Lima 2000) und La isla en peso (Piñera 1998). Die Metapher wird in den Begrifflichkeiten der „Simulation“ und „Dissimulation“ (Sarduy 1982) oder auch einer „visuellen Erscheinung“ als „Grund-Ekphrasis“ (Pimentel 2001) beschrieben. Demgegenüber stellen spätere Arbeiten die literarische Figur der „Insel“ als ein Instrument der Dekonstruktion der Nationalliteratur Kubas dar (Rojas 1998;Nuez 1998, Benitez Rojo 1998). In zeitgenössischen Analysen wird die Metapher in ihrer jeweiligen Beziehungen zur Repräsentation und zum „Lebenswissen“ (Ette 2010) herausgearbeitet. Die Repräsentation der “Insel” bzw. der “Insularität” wird in der vorliegenden Arbeit anhand des soziokulturellen Kontextes in den letzten dreißig Jahren u.a. in den Romanen von Abilio Estevez Tuyo es el reino (1998), Atilio Caballero La última playa (1999), Daniel Díaz Mantilla Regreso a Utopía (2007) sowie den Erzählungen von Ena Lucia Portela Huracan (2000), Antonio José Ponte Un nuevo arte de hacer ruinas (2005),Emerio Medina Isla (2005), Orlando Luís Pardo Tokionama (2009),Ahmel Echeverria Isla (2014) und Anesly Negrín Isla a mediodía (2014) untersucht.

La ficción de lo real y lo policial en las cuatro estaciones de Leonardo Padura analiza la entrada oportuna de la novela neopolicial, como subgénero del realismo, en la narrativa cubana en la década de 1990. La autora rastrea y establece pautas y referentes del género policial en la historia de la literatura cubana, especialmente en la vertiente utilitaria del realismo socialista, asentada en Cuba después de 1959 como apoyo a las políticas culturales del Estado. Igualmente, detalla la gestación, nacimiento e instauración de un género neopolicial insular, tropical y replicante al discurso del poder. Como tesis esencial, propone cuatro categorías del neopolicial cubano de finales del siglo XX elaboradas a partir de los rasgos más importantes del género en Iberoamérica, según la experta Francisca Noguerol: el realismo, el enigma policial, la ley y la sociedad como partícipes del crimen y la presencia del otro en la anécdota. Este ensayo se suma a las listas de estudios académicos que examinan el papel de la literatura en el enfrentamiento al estado totalitario cubano, la novela policial iberoamericana, las diversas exploraciones realizadas en Las cuatro estaciones y al autor Leonardo Padura.

The Latin American novel burst onto the international literary scene with the Boom era--led by Julio Cortázar, Gabriel García Márquez, Carlos Fuentes, and Mario Vargas Llosa--and has influenced writers throughout the world ever since. García Márquez and Vargas Llosa each received the Nobel Prize in literature, and many of the best-known contemporary novelists are inspired by the region's fiction. Indeed, magical realism, the style associated with García Márquez, has left a profound imprint on African American, African, Asian, Anglophone Caribbean, and Latinx writers. Furthermore, post-Boom literature continues to garner interest, from the novels of Roberto Bolaño to the works of César Aira and Chico Buarque, to those of younger novelists such as Juan Gabriel Vásquez, Alejandro Zambra, and Valeria Luiselli. Yet, for many readers, the Latin American novel is often read in a piecemeal manner delinked from the traditions, authors, and social contexts that help explain its evolution. The Oxford Handbook of the Latin American Novel draws literary, historical, and social connections so that readers will come away understanding this literature as a rich and compelling canon. In forty-five chapters by leading and innovative scholars, the Handbook provides a comprehensive introduction, helping readers to see the region's intrinsic heterogeneity--for only with a broader view can one fully appreciate García Márquez or Bolaño. This volume charts the literary tradition of the Latin American novel from its beginnings during colonial times, its development during the nineteenth and the first half of the twentieth century, and its flourishing from the 1960s onward. Furthermore, the Handbook explores the regions, representations of identity, narrative trends, and authors that make this literature so diverse and fascinating, reflecting on the Latin American novel's position in world literature.

The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature is by far the most comprehensive work of its kind ever written. Its three volumes cover the whole sweep of Latin American literature (including Brazilian) from pre-Colombian times to the present, and contain chapters on Latin American writing in the USA. Volume 3 is devoted partly to the history of Brazilian literature, from the earliest writing through the colonial period and the Portuguese-language traditions of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; and partly also to an extensive bibliographical section in which annotated reading lists relating to the chapters in all three volumes of The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature are presented. These bibliographies are a unique feature of the History, further enhancing its immense value as a reference work.

In this uniquely wide-ranging book, David Craven investigates the extraordinary impact of three Latin American revolutions on the visual arts and on cultural policy. The three great upheavals - in Mexico (1910-40), in Cuba (1959-89), and in Nicaragua (1979-90) - were defining moments in twentieth-century life in the Americas. Craven discusses the structural logic of each movement's artistic project - by whom, how, and for whom artworks were produced -- and assesses their legacies. In each case, he demonstrates how the consequences of the revolution reverberated in the arts and cultures far beyond national borders. The book not only examines specific artworks originating from each revolution's attempt to deal with the challenge of 'socializing the arts,' but also the engagement of the working classes in Mexico, Cuba, and Nicaragua with a tradition of the fine arts made newly accessible through social transformation. Craven considers how each revolution dealt with the pressing problem of creating a 'dialogical art' -- one that reconfigures the existing artistic resource rather than one that just reproduces a populist art to keep things as they were. In addition, the author charts the impact on the revolutionary processes of theories of art and education, articulated by such thinkers as John Dewey and Paulo Freire. The book provides a fascinating new view of the Latin American revolutionaries -- from artists to political leaders -- who defined art as a fundamental force for the transformation of society and who bequeathed new ways of thinking about the relations among art, ideology, and class, within a revolutionary process.
