Victoria Lynn Garrett examines how selected plays mediated the impact of economic liberalism, technological changes, new competing and contradictory gender roles, intense labor union activity, and the foreign/nativist dichotomy. Popular theaters served as spaces for cultural agency by portraying conventional and innovative performances of daily life. This dramatic corpus was a critical mass cultural medium that allowed audiences to evaluate the dominant fictions of liberal modernity, to critique Argentina's purportedly democratic culture, and to imagine alternative performances of everyday life in accordance with their realities. Through a fresh look at the relationship among politics, economics, popular culture, and performance in Argentina's modernization period, the book uncovers largely overlooked articulations of popular-classidentities and desires for greater inclusion that would drive social and political struggles to this day. 410 0$aNew Directions in Latino American Cultures,$x2634-520X 606 $aEthnology$zLatin America 606 $aCulture 606 $aTheater$xHistory 606 $aLatin America$xHistory 606 $aTheater 606 $aLatin American Culture 606 $aTheatre History 606 $aLatin American History 606 $aGlobal and International Theatre and Performance 606 $aGlobal and International Culture 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aTheater$xHistory. 615 0$aLatin America$xHistory. 615 0$aTheater. 615 14$aLatin American Culture. 615 24$aTheatre History. 615 24$aLatin American History. 615 24$aGlobal and International Theatre and Performance. 615 24$aGlobal and International Culture. 676 $a792.0982 700 $aGarrett$b Victoria Lynn$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0981906 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300027303321 996 $aPerforming Everyday Life in Argentine Popular Theater, 1890-1934$94331542 997 $aUNINA
