Through original readings of foundational Latin American thinkers (such as José Martí and José Enrique Rodó) and contemporary theorists (such as John Beverley and Doris Sommer), Charles Hatfield reveals and challenges the anti-universalism that informs seemingly disparate theoretical projects. The Limits of Identity offers a critical reexamination of widely held conceptions of culture, ideology, interpretation, and history. The repudiation of universalism, Hatfield argues, creates a set of problems that are both theoretical and political. Even though the recognition of identity and difference is normally thought to be a form of resistance, The Limits of Identity claims that, in fact, the opposite is true.Border Hispanisms.Group identityLatin AmericaLatin AmericaCivilizationGroup identity980Hatfield Charles Dean1977-1654592MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822655003321The limits of identity4006528UNINA
