Cultural Antagonism and the Crisis of Reality in Latin America
Bloomsbury Academic USA (Verlag)
978-1-5013-9294-8 (ISBN)
Covering four key geographical areas, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and the Andes, every chapter delves into a question that has been central to the humanities in the last 20 years: Indigenous world-views, gender, race, neo-liberalism and visual culture. Legrás illuminates these issues with a thorough consideration of the theoretical questions inherent to how new identities disrupt the imaginary stability of social formations.
Horacio Legrás is a Professor in the Spanish and Portuguese Department at University of California, Irvine, USA. He is the author of Literature and Subjection: The Economy of Writing and Marginality in Latin America (2008) and Culture and Revolution: Violence, Memory and the Making of Modern Mexico (2017) and over 50 articles in peer-reviewed journals.
