Description
About the Book
"La introducciâon y los ocho capâitulos en inglâes y espaînol que componen Teorizando las literaturas indâigenas contemporâaneas examinan la producciâon textual de autorâia indâigena. Los autores parten de los aînos noventa y problematizan las relaciones entre pueblos indâigenas y estado naciâon en Guatemala, Colombia, Perâu, Chile, Ecuador, Mâexico, y Brasil. Se sugiere que las los movimientos indâigenas actuales y sus demandas pueden ser mejor entendidas mediante una mirada crâitica a la producciâon textual de sus intelectuales orgâanicos. Si bien se ha escrito mucho sobre la actividad de los movimientos sociales y la producciâon textual indâigena actual, no existe todavâia un libro que contextualice lo que ha posibilitado la emergencia de un canon literario indâigena contemporâaneo y su relaciâon a los movimientos sociales. Este libro pretende llenar algunos de estos vacâios"--Back coverBook Synopsis
The introduction and eight chapters in English and Spanish that make up "Teorizando las literaturas indígenas contemporáneas" examine the textual production of indigenous authorship. The authors start from the nineties and problematize the relationship between Indigenous People and nation-state in Guatemala, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, and Brazil. It is one of the book's suggestions that current indigenous movements and their demands can be best understood through a critique of textual production of its organic intellectuals. While much has been written about the activities of the social movements and current indigenous textual production, there is still the need for a book that contextualizes what has enabled the emergence of a contemporary indigenous literary canon and its relationship to those social movements. This book aims to fill some of these gaps.About the Author
