La protagonista indiscutible de la Conquista de México cuenta su verdadera historia. Durante la primavera de 1519, Hernán Cortés recibe como tributo varias esclavas, sin saber que entre ellas se encuentra una joven que cambiará su destino. Malintzin también conocida como Malinche, sabe hablar con fluidez maya y náhuatl, y utilizará estas lenguas para sobrevivir en medio de una guerra inevitable y un mundo que dejará de existir entre el humo y el fuego. De forma íntima, esta inolvidable novela recrea la vida de una mujer que fue protagonista de momentos y batallas que marcaron el violento choque de dos mundos, y que llevó palabras entre el capitán castellano Hernán Cortés y el huey tlatoani Motecuhzoma, dos hombres que tenían ideas muy diferentes sobre la vida, el honor, la fe y la muerte. También rescata los períodos más desconocidos de la vida de Malitnzin, desde su infancia y adolescencia hasta los primeros años de la Colonia española en América, tras la caída de la Gran Tenochtitlan. Sin duda, esta reveladora novela invita a reflexionar sobre uno de los momentos más dolorosos y menos comprendidos de la historia de México. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The undisputed protagonist of the Conquest of Mexico tells her true story. During the spring of 1519, Hernán Cortés receives several slaves as payment, without knowing that among them is a young woman who will change his destiny. Malintzin, also known as Malinche, can speak Mayan and Nahuatl fluently, and she will use these languages to survive in the midst of an inevitable war and a world that will cease to exist between smoke and fire. In an intimate way, this unforgettable novel recreates the life of a woman who was the protagonist of moments and battles that marked the violent clash of two worlds, and who brought words between the Castilian captain Hernán Cortés and the huey tlatoani Motecuhzoma, two men who had very different ideas about life, honor, faith, and death. It also rescues the most unknown periods of Malitnzin's life, from her childhood and adolescence until the early years of the Spanish Colony in America, after the fall of Great Tenochtitlan. Without a doubt, this revealing novel invites us to reflect on one of the most painful and least understood moments in Mexico’s history.

From East L.A. to the barrios of New York City and the Cuban neighborhoods of Miami, Latino literature, or literature written by Hispanic peoples of the United States, is the written word of North America's vibrant Latino communities. Emerging from the fusion of Spanish, North American, and African cultures, it has always been part of the American mosaic. Written for students and general readers, this encyclopedia surveys the vast landscape of Latino literature from the colonial era to the present. Aiming to be as broad and inclusive as possible, the encyclopedia covers all of native North American Latino literature as well as that created by authors originating in virtually every country of Spanish America and Spain. Included are more than 700 alphabetically arranged entries written by roughly 60 expert contributors. While most of the entries are on writers, such as Julia Alvarez, Sandra Cisneros, Lorna Dee Cervantes, Oscar Hijuelos, and Piri Thomas, others cover genres, ethnic and national literatures, movements, historical topics and events, themes, concepts, associations and organizations, and publishers and magazines. Special attention is given to the cultural, political, social, and historical contexts in which Latino literature has developed. Entries cite works for further reading, and the encyclopedia closes with a selected, general bibliography.

Speaking for the growing community of Latina feminist theologians, the editors of this volume write, "With the emergence and growth of the feminist theologies of liberation, we no longer wait for others to define or validate our experience of life and faith.... We want to express in our own words our plural ways of experiencing God and our plural ways of living our faith. And these ways have a liberative tone." With twelve original essays by emerging and established Latina feminist theologians, this first-of-its-kind volume adds the perspectives, realities, struggles, and spiritualities of U.S. Latinas to the larger feminist theological discourse. The editors have gathered writings from both Roman Catholics and Protestants and from various Latino/a communities. The writers address a wide array of theological concerns: popular religion, denominational presence and attraction, methodology, lived experience, analysis of nationhood, and interpretations of life lived on a border that is not only geographic but also racial, gendered, linguistic, and religious.

This book explores the most recent critical and theoretical approaches in the field of Chicano studies from an interdisciplinary perspective. The contributions go back to the 4th International Conference on Chicano Literature which took place in Sevilla in May 2004. They deal with a wide variety of topics and approach the subject from diverse viewpoints. Some examine specific literary texts by major Chicano authors from feminist, comparative and close-reading approaches, others discuss ideological and cultural issues like folklore, ethnicity, identity, sexuality or stereotypes, while yet others focus on artistic manifestations like films and murals. Furthermore, the volume also includes an interview with the Chicana writer Ana Castillo. The main goal of this collection is to find new cultural possibilities and strategies while exploring future dilemmas in the field of Chicano Studies.

A study exploring the role of Latina women in theater performance, literature, and criticism. Arrizón’s examination of Latina performance spans the twentieth century, beginning with oral traditions of corrido and revistas. She examines the soldadera and later theatrical personalities such as La Chata Noloesca and contemporary performance artist Carmelita Tropicana. Latina Performance considers the emergence of Latina aesthetics developed in the United States, but simultaneously linked with Latin America. As dramatists, performance artists, protagonists, and/or cultural critics, the women Arrizón examines in this book draw attention to their own divided position. They are neither Latin American nor Anglo, neither third- or first-world; they are feminists, but not quite “American style.” This in-between-ness is precisely what has created Latina performance and performance studies, and has made “Latina” an allegory for dual national and artistic identities. “Alicia Arrizón’s Latina Performance is a truly innovative and important contribution to Latino Studies as well as to theater and performance studies.” —Diana Taylor, New York University “Arrizón’s . . . important book revolves around the complex issues of identity formation and power relations for US women performers of Latin American descent. . . . Valuable for anyone interested in theater history and criticism, cultural studies, gender studies, and ethnic studies with attention to Mexican American, Chicana/o, and Latina/o studies. Upper—division undergraduates through professionals.” —E. C. Ramirez, Choice

Dangerous Liaisons written by Anne McClintock and has been published by U of Minnesota Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1997 with Social Science categories.

The first collection to emphasize the complex interaction between gender and postcoloniality. Most people in the world, from Africa to Asia and beyond, live in the aftermath of colonialism. Their day-to-day lives are defined by their past history as colonized peoples, often in ways that are subtle or hard to define. In Dangerous Liaisons, eminent contributors address the issues raised by the postcolonial condition, considering nationhood, history, gender, and identity from an inter-disciplinary perspective. Among the questions they address are: What are the boundaries of race and ethnicity in a diasporic world? How have women been so effectively excluded from national power? What have been the historical aftermaths of different forms of colonialism? What are the cultural and political consequences of colonial partitions of the nation-state? Representing an essential intervention, Dangerous Liaisons is a crucial guidebook for those concerned with understanding postcoloniality at the moment when it is becoming more and more widely discussed.
