Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autobiografía de un esclavo es el primer testimonio en castellano de la esclavitud sufrida en las colonias españolas del Nuevo Mundo. Por tanto, tiene un gran valor histórico, a pesar de estar inacabada porque la segunda parte -Apuntes autobiográficos- no se conserva, por ser considerada una obra clave de la narrativa antiesclavista y del periodo colonial. Salió a la luz en 1937, una centuria después de que se comenzara a escribir en 1835 por Juan Francisco Manzano. En esta Autobiografía, Manzano relata su vida en la esclavitud y todo lo que ello supone cuando sirve a su primera ama, Beatriz de Jústiz de Santa, quien gracias a su aperturismo consigue leer numerosas obras y aprender a escribir; o cuando sirve en casa de la marquesa de Prado Ameno, una señora autoritaria que provoca su huida.

Book excerpt: "Autobiografía de un Esclavo" fue una de las varias obras escritas por Juan Francisco Manzano en su vida y fue publicada en 1840. Esta obra es una autobiografía poderosa y reveladora, donde Manzano narra su viaje desde la esclavitud hacia la libertad, ofreciendo una visión íntima y profunda de su vida y de las condiciones que enfrentaban los esclavizados en Cuba. A lo largo del tiempo, se han escrito y continúan escribiéndose varias biografías sobre este icónico poeta y ex esclavo, con una calidad y amplitud cada vez mayores. Sin embargo, para conocer el pensamiento y el modo de ser de una persona real, no hay nada mejor que escuchar la historia con todas sus circunstancias, errores y aciertos contada por quien las vivió en primera persona. Este es el propósito de esta autobiografía de Juan Francisco Manzano: llevar al público al hombre valiente y visionario, que, a través de su perseverancia e inteligencia, se convirtió en una de las voces más influyentes en la lucha por la libertad y los derechos de los afrodescendientes en América Latina. Esta obra forma parte de la colección "Voces hispánicas", que tiene como objetivo destacar las historias de vida de figuras importantes en la historia hispanoamericana, contadas por ellos mismos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Delves into the life and work of Juan Francisco Manzano, the enslaved Cuban poet and author of Spanish America’s only known slave narrative . . . Valuable.” —Choice By exploring the complexities of enslavement in the autobiography of Cuban slave-poet Juan Francisco Manzano (1797–1854), Gerard Aching complicates the universally recognized assumption that a slave’s foremost desire is to be freed from bondage. As the only slave narrative in Spanish that has surfaced to date, Manzano’s autobiography details the daily grind of the vast majority of slaves who sought relief from the burden of living under slavery. Aching combines historical narrative and literary criticism to take the reader beyond Manzano’s text to examine the motivations behind anticolonial and antislavery activism in pre-revolution Cuba, when Cuba’s Creole bourgeoisie sought their own form of freedom from the colonial arm of Spain.

Book excerpt: Afrodiasporic Forms explores the epistemological possibilities of the “Black world” paradigm and traces a literary and cultural cartography of the monde noir and its constitutive African diasporas across multiple poetic, visual, and cultural permutations. Examining the transatlantic slave trade and modern racial slavery, Raquel Kennon challenges the US-centric focus of slavery studies and draws on a transnational, eclectic archive of materials from Lusophone, Hispanophone, and Anglophone sources in the Americas to inspect evolving, multitudinous, and disparate forms of Afrodiasporic cultural expression. Spanning the 1830s to the twenty-first century, Afrodiasporic Forms traverses national, linguistic, and disciplinary boundaries as it investigates how cultural products of slavery’s afterlife—including poetry, prose, painting, television, sculpture, and song—shape understandings of the African diaspora. Each chapter uncovers multidirectional pathways for exploring representations of slavery, considering works such as a Brazilian telenovela based on Bernardo Guimarães’s novel A Escrava Isaura, Robert Hayden’s poem “Middle Passage,” Kara Walker’s sculpture A Subtlety, and Juan Francisco Manzano’s Autobiografía de un esclavo. Kennon’s expansive method of comparative reading across the diaspora uses eclectic pairings of canonical and popular textual and artistic sources to stretch beyond disciplinary and national borders, promoting expansive diasporic literacies.

Download or read book Cecilia Vald s or El Angel Hill written by Cirilo Villaverde and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-09-29 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cecilia Valdés is arguably the most important novel of 19th century Cuba. Originally published in New York City in 1882, Cirilo Villaverde's novel has fascinated readers inside and outside Cuba since the late 19th century. In this new English translation, a vast landscape emerges of the moral, political, and sexual depravity caused by slavery and colonialism. Set in the Havana of the 1830s, the novel introduces us to Cecilia, a beautiful light-skinned mulatta, who is being pursued by the son of a Spanish slave trader, named Leonardo. Unbeknownst to the two, they are the children of the same father. Eventually Cecilia gives in to Leonardo's advances; she becomes pregnant and gives birth to a baby girl. When Leonardo, who gets bored with Cecilia after a while, agrees to marry a white upper class woman, Cecilia vows revenge. A mulatto friend and suitor of hers kills Leonardo, and Cecilia is thrown into prison as an accessory to the crime. For the contemporary reader Helen Lane's masterful translation of Cecilia Valdés opens a new window into the intricate problems of race relations in Cuba and the Caribbean. There are the elite social circles of European and New World Whites, the rich culture of the free people of color, the class to which Cecilia herself belonged, and then the slaves, divided among themselves between those who were born in Africa and those who were born in the New World, and those who worked on the sugar plantation and those who worked in the households of the rich people in Havana. Cecilia Valdés thus presents a vast portrait of sexual, social, and racial oppression, and the lived experience of Spanish colonialism in Cuba.
