This book was released on 2024-03-04 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este texto aborda la historia del proceso de construcción de la territorialidad de las poblaciones negras del sur del valle interandino, del Alto Cauca. Históricamente vinculadas a un proceso de resistencia, constituidas como pueblos, reclaman reconocimientos y reparaciones que puedan ser traducidos en los desarrollos de sus unidades locales, familiares y sus economías campesinas. Dicha historia ha estado mediada por procesos culturales, económicos, políticos y conflictos sociales, así como a sus vinculaciones a los trabajos agropecuarios y mineros del siglo XVIII y XIX y a su condición de trabajadores de las modernas plantaciones cañeras. La documentación de archivo fue clave para reconocer la historicidad del proceso de construcción como sociedad: la lectura de los relatos que sugerían la oficialidad, enmarcados en informes, descripciones, demandas, quejas y balances económicos, advirtió en ellos ciertos lenguajes, simbologías y prejuicios que denotaban "correlatos subalternos", opuestos a la misma oficialidad. Lo que en la documentación es presentado por los hacendados como negativo, peligroso, insurgente y hasta salvaje, es realmente la construcción de una sociedad de los negros. Este libro muestra una parte de las diversas posibilidades que las sociedades negras han construido en las diásporas, en procura de una vida digna, y frente a las condiciones adversas a las que han sido sometidas, desde su esclavización.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro presenta un panorama general de la historia cultural de las sociedades negras del norte del Cauca asociado con dos grandes componentes que permiten observar dinámicas y desarrollos relacionales: la cultura local y la globalidad. Como elemento conciliador de esta tensión se aborda lo que estudiosos han llamado "estrategias de localización" expresadas en las prácticas culturales de religiosidades, costumbres, y formas de territorializar los espacios en fincas familiares y propiedades comunitarias que dieron lugar a economías campesinas. Dichas representaciones, prácticas y manifestaciones culturales que hacen parte del corpus identitario son expuestas en sus contextos locales y vinculadas con los procesos de modernización que configuran expresiones de las culturas. Son dos los periodos que abarca esta investigación. En primer lugar, la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, enmarcada en las condiciones posteriores a la esclavización (abolida desde 1951) y durante la cual para las sociedades negras fue difícil conciliar un derecho otorgado por ley, con la legitimidad de las autonomías que fueron construyendo como sociedades libres y campesinas. Por otro lado, en el contexto del siglo XX se encuentran ciertas condiciones de desarrollos agropecuarios y el advenimiento de la Modernidad, además de nuevos actores y circunstancias que impone el proceso modernizador en la historia cultural. La introducción de tecnologías para la producción agropecuaria y la realidad urbana fueron claves para la transformación de dinámicas y formas de expresión cultural como chigualos, bundes y novenarios a los muertos.

Download or read book Women s Writing in Colombia written by Cherilyn Elston and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-20 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Montserrat Ordóñez Prize 2018 This book provides an original and exciting analysis of Colombian women’s writing and its relationship to feminist history from the 1970s to the present. In a period in which questions surrounding women and gender are often sidelined in the academic arena, it argues that feminism has been an important and intrinsic part of contemporary Colombian history. Focusing on understudied literary and non-literary texts written by Colombian women, it traces the particularities of Colombian feminism, showing how it has been closely entwined with left-wing politics and the country’s history of violence. This book therefore rethinks the place of feminism in Latin American history and its relationship to feminisms elsewhere, challenging many of the predominant critical paradigms used to understand Latin American literature and culture.

Download or read book The Boom Femenino in Mexico written by Nuala Finnegan and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2010-04-16 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Boom Femenino in Mexico: Reading Contemporary Women’s Writing is a collection of essays that focuses on literary production by women in Mexico over the last three decades. In its exploration of the boom femenino phenomenon, the book traces the history of the earlier boom in Latin American culture and investigates the implications of the use of the same term in the context of contemporary women’s writing from Mexico. In this way it engages critically with the cultural, historical and literary significance of the term illuminating the concept for a wide range of readers. It is clear that the entry of so many women writers into an arena traditionally reserved for men has prompted discussion around concepts such as ‘women’s writing’ and the very definition of ‘literature’ itself. Many of the contributors grapple with the theoretical tensions that such debates provoke offering an important opportunity to think critically about the texts produced during this period and the ways in which they have impacted on the Mexican and international cultural spheres. The project is comprehensive in its scope and, for the first time, brings together scholars from Mexico, the U.S. and Europe in a transnational forum. The book posits that despite certain aesthetic and thematic commonalities, the increased output by women writers in Mexico cannot be appraised as a unified literary movement. Instead it embraces a wide range of different generic forms and the subjects under study in the essays in the book include the best-selling work of Ángeles Mastretta, Elena Poniatowska and Laura Esquivel as well as the social and political preoccupations of journalists, Rosanna Reguillo and Cristina Pacheco. Contributors offer readings of the aesthetic visions of writers as diverse as Carmen Boullosa, Ana García Bergua, and Eve Gil while other essays examine the nuances of contemporary gender identity in the work of Ana Clavel, Sabina Berman, Brianda Domecq and María Luisa Puga. There are essays devoted to poetry by indigenous Mayan women and an analysis of the complex place of poetry within the broader framework of literary production. The problems that emerge as a result of literary cataloguing based on gender politics are also considered at length in a number of essays that take a panoramic view of literary production over the period. Various critical approaches are employed throughout and the collection as a whole demonstrates that academic interest in Mexican women’s writing of the boom femenio is thriving. Above all, the essays here provide a space in which the location of women within prevailing cultural paradigms in Mexico and their role in the mapping of power in evolving textual canons may be interrogated. It is clear from the collection that interest in such issues is still alive and that the debate is far from over.
Download or read book Tropical Ecological Systems written by F.B. Golley and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1971 the International Society of Tropical Ecology and the International Association for Ecology held a meeting on Tropical Ecology, with an emphasis on organic production in New Delhi, India. At this meeting a Working Group on Tropical Ecology was organized, consisting of K. C. Misra (India), F. Malaisse (Zaire), E. Medina (Venezuela) and F. Golley (U.S.A.). The object of this Working Group was to stimulate interaction between tropical ecologists through future scientific meetings and other exchanges and communications. A second meeting of ISTE and INTECOL was held in Caracas, Venezuela in 1973, under the direction of Medina and Golley and sponsored by the Depart ment of Ecology, Institute Venezolano Investigaciones Cientificas (lVIC). The basic structure of the meeting was provided by series of invited papers which considered topics of special interest from both an applied and theoretical view. These included physiological ecology (Pannier), populations (Rabinovich), tropical savannas (Lamotte), rivers (Sioli), estuaries (Rodriguez), and island ecosystems (Mueller-Dombois). Contributed papers considered details of these and other ecological topics, including the application of ecology to human problems. The present volume includes the invited papers listed above and a sampling of contributed papers which together illustrate the trends of research in tropical ecology. The papers show that tropical ecology is a vigorous subject of research. While the papers in this volume do not provide reviews of all the topics of study in tropical ecology, they do present authoritative statements on progress in the major subject in the field.
