UCL Press Decolonizing Science In Latin American Art
23 GBP
Projects that bring the ?hard? sciences into art are increasingly being exhibited in galleries and museums across the world. In a surge of publications on the subject, few focus on regions beyond Europe and the Anglophone world. Decolonizing Science in Latin American Art assembles a new corpus of art-science projects by Latin American artists, ranging from big-budget collaborations with NASA and MIT to homegrown experiments in artists? kitchens.While they draw on recent scientific research, these art projects also ?decolonize? science. If increasing knowledge of the natural world has often gone hand-in-hand with our objectification and exploitation of it, the artists studied here emphasize the subjectivity and intelligence of other species, staging new forms of collaboration and co-creativity beyond the human. They design technologies that work with organic processes to promote the health of ecosystems, and seek alternatives to the logics of extractivism and monoculture farming that have caused extensive ecological damage in Latin America. They develop do-it-yourself, open-source, commons-based practices for sharing creative and intellectual property. They establish critical dialogues between Western science and indigenous thought, reconnecting a disembedded, abstracted form of knowledge with the cultural, social, spiritual, and ethical spheres of experience from which it has often been excluded.Decolonizing Science in Latin American Art interrogates how artistic practices may communicate, extend, supplement, and challenge scientific ideas. At the same time, it explores broader questions in the field of art, including the relationship between knowledge, care, and curation; nonhuman agency; art and utility; and changing approaches to participation. It also highlights important contributions by Latin American thinkers to themes of global significance, including the Anthropocene, climate change and environmental justice.Praise for Decolonizing Science in Latin American Art'The author promotes a post-anthropocentric imaginary and the exquisite artwork selection, embedded in an appropriate theoretical context, is also available as a downloadable pdf.'Neural'[the chapter 'Art and environmental change: beyond apocalypse'] is innovative through the examples offered, but also through the solutions it offers for building a friendlier environment.'Research and Education
Taylor & Francis Ltd Abuse In The Latin American Church : An Evolving Crisis At The Core Of Catholicism
35.87 GBP
This book addresses the crisis of sexual abuse in the Roman Catholic Church in Latin America, the region of the world with the highest percentage of Catholics.Bringing together research from across the continent, it demonstrates that abuse within the Church is indeed a global phenomenon, though abuses have taken different forms according to varying sociocultural contexts.With attention to abuses committed against children, women and vulnerable adults – by both men and women – within the settings of parishes, new religious movements and international religious organizations, it also raises questions of justice, asking how to assess the suffering of victims, how to deal with abusers and how to prevent abuses.It will therefore be of interest to scholars of religious studies, sociology, Latin American studies, criminology, theology, and religious leaders with interests in the abuses and scandals that have been revealed in the worldwide Church.
University of Wales Press Latin America And Existentialism : A Pan-American Literary History (1864-1938)
64.4 GBP
Latin America and Existentialism is a preliminary intellectual history, prioritising literature and contextualising Latin American philosophical contributions from the 1860s to the late 1930s, decades that coincide with the canon’s foundational years.This study takes a Pan-American approach to move the critical focus away from the River Plate, a region that has received some critical attention.In doing so, it focuses on existentially-neglected writers such as Brazil’s Machado de Assis and Graciliano Ramos, José Asunción Silva from Colombia, Cuba’s Enrique Labrador Ruiz, and the Chilean María Luisa Bombal.Underappreciated Latin American philosophical voices and existentialism’s canonical perspectives allow the author to discuss the many problems concerning the experiencing ‘I’ of these authors, and to consider such existential themes as ethical vacuity, forlornness, the crisis of insufficiency, the conundrum of choice, and the enigma of authentic being.The concentration on Latin America’s existentially-hued interest in the human condition is an invitation to the reader to reconsider the peripheral status in the existentialism canon.
University of Notre Dame Press Abortion In Latin America And The Caribbean : The Legal Impact Of The American Convention On Human Rights
61.64 GBP
Abortion in Latin America and the Caribbean is the first major book to analyze the abortion laws of the Latin American and Caribbean nations that are parties to the American Convention on Human Rights.Making use of a broad range of materials relating to human rights and abortion law not yet available in English, the first part of this book analyzes how Inter-American human rights bodies have interpreted the American Convention's prenatal right to life.The second part examines Article 4(1) of the American Convention, comparing and analyzing the laws regarding prenatal rights and abortion in all twenty-three nations that are parties to this treaty.Castaldi questions how Inter-American human rights bodies currently interpret Article 4(1).Against the predominant view, she argues that the purpose of this treaty is to grant legal protection of the unborn child from elective abortion that is broad and general, not merely exceptional. Abortion in Latin America and the Caribbean offers an objective analysis of national and international laws on abortion, proposing a new interpretation of the American Convention's right-to-life provision that is nonrestrictive and provides general protection for the unborn.The book will appeal not only to students and scholars in the field of international human rights but also to human rights advocates more generally.

Grub Street Publishing The Book Of Latin American Cooking
23 GBP
The Book of Latin American Cooking is an exotic, exciting and uncomplicated cookbook that comes with a fascinating culinary introduction and notes on all the essential ingredients.With a sudden rash of Latin American restaurants opening in London and other major cities, such as Ceviche and Lima and the chain of Las Iguanas, the British are at last getting to grips with the cooking of Latin America; a sophisticated cuisine that is as old and as complex as any in the world.First published in 1969 and written by one of the first scholar cooks, The Book of Latin American Cooking is regarded as a classic and one of only a handful of books to examine this much underappreciated cuisine.The collision of civilisations that occurred after the Spanish conquest, and the adoption by the colonisers of so many new foods such as the chilli, the pepper, the tomato, the potato, chocolate, French beans and avocados, down to the very staple, maize, means that Latin American cookery is a hybrid of infinite and unique combinations.Elisabeth Lambert Ortiz was the very first writer to encourage British and American enthusiasm for the food of Latin America and the Caribbean.She introduces the reader to the subtle marriages of texture and flavour which distinguish the cooking of South America from Peru to Chile.Elisabeth Lambert Ortiz was one of the leading cookbook authors of her generation and wrote numerous cookery books including The New Complete Book of Mexican Cooking and The Complete Book of Caribbean Cooking.She was a culinary anthropologist and food historian, principal consultant for the Time Life Foods of the World series, as well as a regular contributor to Gourmet magazine.She died in New York in 2003 aged 88.

Edinburgh University Press Ricardo Darin And The Construction Of Latin American Film Stardom
82.8 GBP
This monograph examines the figure of Ricardo Darín, the leading actor that drives Argentine cinema’s box office success.It aims to fill a lacuna both in Hispanic and Anglophone academia regarding the study of how Ricardo Darín’s rise to stardom took place, and what that stardom means for the Latin American film industry.Accordingly, it examines whether or not Ricardo Darín embodies the epitome of the contemporary Latin American or Hispanic star, and, importantly, whether or not the characteristics of the Hollywood star system are actually applicable in the case of Argentine cinema – where the dividing lines between so-called ‘industrial’ and ‘independent’ cinemas are very difficult to discern.Thus, whilst taking the study of this key figure from contemporary Argentine cinema as its focal point, this study will also facilitate an opening up towards broader but equally vital questions that continue to require full examination: How are Argentine, Latin American and Hispanic stars constructed?Does the leading actor of contemporary Argentine cinema embody a wider social group and historical moment in the region?Is his performative approach redefining a particular cinematic style?
Equinox Publishing Ltd Maldito Coronavirus! : Mapping Latin American Musical Responses To The Pandemic Moment
24.79 GBP
Maldito Coronavirus!: Mapping Latin American Musical Responses to the Pandemic Moment offers an expansive survey and analysis of local and regional musical responses to the global coronavirus moment.The authors situate this emergent phenomenon within interdisciplinary explorations of music-making on social media platforms, transnational culture flows, emotional intimacy in digital spaces, and the intersections of music, health, and community.The first study of its kind, Maldito Coronavirus! emphasizes the singularity of this cultural moment by examining the myriad ways musicians, promoters, activists, and listeners artistically, emotionally, and organizationally responded to the challenges of living through a global pandemic.Highlighting examples from Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Argentina, and across the Hispanic Caribbean, this book analyzes lyric, affect, and performance and explores the ways participatory digital platforms facilitated cultural sustenance and musical distribution at a time when physical gatherings were unfeasible.Maldito Coronavirus! draws on over a year's worth of digital ethnography as well as insights from folklore, history, ethnomusicology, and the growing literature on music and wellbeing to highlight the locally-contingent ways music-makers responded to a global crisis.
Cambridge University Press The Cambridge Companion To Latin American Independence
25.76 GBP
Bringing together experts across Latin America, North America, and Spain, The Cambridge Companion to Latin American Independence innovatively revisits Latin American independence within a larger regional, temporal, and thematic framework to highlight its significance for the Age of Atlantic Revolutions.The volume offers a synthetic yet comprehensive tool for understanding and assessing the most current studies in the field and their analytical contributions to the broader historiography. Organized thematically and across different regions of the Iberian Peninsula and Spanish and Luso America, the essays deepen well-known conclusions and reveal new interpretations.They offer analytical interventions that produce new questions on periodization, the meaning of anti-colonialism, liberalism, and republicanism, as well as the militarization of societies, public opinion, the role of sciences, labor regimes, and gender dynamics.A much-needed addition to the existing scholarship, this volume brings a transnational perspective to a critical period of history in Latin America.

University of California Press Latin American Vanguards : The Art Of Contentious Encounters
31.28 GBP
In this first comprehensive study of Latin America's literary vanguards of the 1920s and 1930s, Vicky Unruh explores the movement's provocative and polemic nature.Latin American vanguardism--a precursor to the widely acclaimed work of contemporary Latin American writers--was stimulated by the European avant-garde movements of the World War I era.But as Unruh's wide-ranging study attests, the vanguards of Latin America--emerging from the continent's own historical circumstances--developed a very distinct character and voice.Through manifestos, experimental texts, and ribald public performance, the vanguardists' work intertwined art, culture, and the politics of the day to produce a powerful brand of aesthetic activism, one that sparked an entire rethinking of the meaning of art and culture throughout Latin America.
University of New Mexico Press Gothic Imagination In Latin American Fiction And Film
65.78 GBP
This work traces how Gothic imagination from the literature and culture of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Europe and twentieth-century US and European film has impacted Latin American literature and film culture.Serrano argues that the Gothic has provided Latin American authors with a way to critique a number of issues, including colonization, authoritarianism, feudalism, and patriarchy.The book includes a literary history of the European Gothic to demonstrate how Latin American authors have incorporated its characteristics but also how they have broken away or inverted some elements, such as traditional plot lines, to suit their work and address a unique set of issues.The book examines both the modernistas of the nineteenth century and the avant-garde writers of the twentieth century, including Huidobro, Bombal, Rulfo, Roa Bastos, and Fuentes.Looking at the Gothic in Latin American literature and film, this book is a groundbreaking study that brings a fresh perspective to Latin American creative culture.
Jessica Kingsley Publishers Latin American Cultural And Musical Contexts In Music Therapy
24.83 GBP
Culturally-conscious music therapy has the power to create meaningful therapeutic connections between practitioners and clients from different backgrounds, and to support healing by honoring clients' heritages and experiences. This essential handbook dives into the wide range of linguistic, historical, and cultural influences that shape different Latin American clients, and suggests ways to apply these contexts in music therapy settings.Stories, case studies, and research provide a comprehensive overview of both theory and its practical applications, allowing better client-centred practice.Examples shown through the perspective of therapists and clients demonstrate ways to develop culturally-competent practice, as well as highlighting its importance in supporting clients from different backgrounds and helping Latine therapists to weave their own heritage into their work.A key resource for therapists and care professionals working with Latine and Hispanic clients, this guide broadens the horizons of music therapy and reinforces the diversity at its heart.
Cambridge University Press Latin American Constitutions : The Constitution Of Cadiz And Its Legacy In Spanish America
29.44 GBP
Latin American Constitutions provides a comprehensive historical study of constitutionalism in Latin America from the independence period to the present, focusing on the Constitution of Cádiz, a foundational document in Latin American constitutionalism.Although drafted in Spain, it was applied in many regions of Latin America, and deputies from America formed a significant part of the drafting body.The politicization of constitutionalism reflected in Latin America's first moments proved to be a lasting legacy evident in the legal and constitutional world of the region today: many of Latin America's present challenges to establishing effective constitutionalism can be traced to the debates, ideas, structures, and assumptions of this text.This book explores the region's attempts to create effective constitutional texts and regimes in light of an established practice of linking constitutions to political goals and places important constitutional thinkers and regional constitutions, such as the Mexican Constitution of 1917, into their legal and historical context.
Taylor & Francis Ltd Landmarks In Modern Latin American Fiction (Routledge Revivals)
43.23 GBP
In the 1960s, there occurred amongst Latin American writers a sudden explosion of literary activity known as the ‘Boom’.It marked an increase in the production and availability of innovative and experimental novels.But the ‘Boom’ of the 1960s should not be taken as the only flowering of Latin American fiction, for such novels dubbed ‘new novels’ were being written in the 1940s and 1950s, as well as in the 1970s and 1980s.In this edited collection, first published in 1990, Philip Swanson charts the development of Latin American fiction throughout the twentieth century.He assesses the impact of the ‘new novel’ on Latin American literature, and follows its growth.Nine key texts are analysed by contributors, including works by the ‘big four’ of the ‘Boom’ – Fuentes, Cortázar, Garcia Márquez and Vargas Llosa.This book will be of interest to critics and teachers of Latin American literature, and will be useful too as supplementary reading for students of Spanish and Hispanic Studies.It will also serve as a helpful introduction to those new to Latin American fiction.
