During a mass meeting held at the Plaza of the Three Cultures in the Tlatelolco neighborhood, paramilitary forces opened fire on the gathering. The death toll from the massacre remains a contested number, ranging from an official count in the dozens to estimates in the hundreds by journalists and scholars. Rereading the legacy of this tragedy through diverse artistic-political interventions across the decades, Photopoetics at Tlatelolco explores the state?s dual repression?both the massacre?s crushing effects on the movement and the manipulation of cultural discourse and political thought in the aftermath. Examining artifacts ranging from documentary photography and testimony to poetry, essays, chronicles, cinema, literary texts, video, and performance, Samuel Steinberg considers the broad photographic and photopoetic nature of modern witnessing as well as the specific elements of light (gunfire, flares, camera flashes) that ultimately defined the massacre. Steinberg also demonstrates the ways in which the labels of ?massacre? and ?sacrifice? inform contemporary perceptions of the state?s blatant and violent repression of unrest. With implications for similar processes throughout the rest of Latin America from the 1960s to the present day, Photopoetics at Tlatelolco provides a powerful new model for understanding the intersection of political history and cultural memory. 410 0$aBorder Hispanisms. 606 $aTlatelolco Massacre, Mexico City, Mexico, 1968 606 $aStudent movements$zMexico$zMexico City$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aDocumentary films$zMexico$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMexican literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 607 $aTlatelolco (Mexico)$xHistory 607 $aMexico$xPolitics and government$y1946-1970 615 0$aTlatelolco Massacre, Mexico City, Mexico, 1968. 615 0$aStudent movements$xHistory 615 0$aDocumentary films$xHistory 615 0$aMexican literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a972/.530831 700 $aSteinberg$b Samuel$c(Assistant professor of Spanish),$01605300 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819825403321 996 $aPhotopoetics at Tlatelolco$93930460 997 $aUNINA
