It provides a window on the challenges inherent to the black lifeworld and to its expression, from the period of slavery in the colonial state, up to and beyond socialism in Cuba in the latter twentieth century"--Provided by publisher"--$cProvided by publisher. 330 $a"Imagine the tension that existed between the emerging nations and governments throughout the Latin American world and the cultural life of former enslaved Africans and their descendants. A world of cultural production, in the form of literature, poetry, art, music, and eventually film, would often simultaneously contravene or cooperate with the newly established order of Latin American nations negotiating independence and a new political and cultural balance. In Black Writing, Culture, and the State in Latin America, Jerome Branche presents the reader with the complex landscape of art and literature among Afro-Hispanic and Latin artists. Branche and his contributors describe individuals such as Juan Francisco Manzano, who wrote an antislavery novel in Cuba during the nineteenth century. The reader finds a thriving Afro-Hispanic theatrical presence throughout Latin America and even across the Atlantic. The role of black women in poetry and literature comes to the forefront in the Caribbean, presenting a powerful reminder of the diversity that defines the region. All too often, the disciplines of film studies, literary criticism, and art history ignore the opportunity to collaborate in a dialogue. Branche and his contributors present a unified approach, however, suggesting that cultural production should not be viewed narrowly, especially when studying the achievements of the Afro-Latin world"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aLatin American literature$xBlack authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aBlack people$zLatin America$xIntellectual life 615 0$aLatin American literature$xBlack authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aBlack people$xIntellectual life. 676 $a860.989608 686 $aHIS024000$aHIS054000$aLIT004100$2bisacsh 702 $aBranche$b Jerome 712 02$aProject Muse 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822061603321 996 $aBlack writing, culture, and the state in Latin America$94058902 997 $aUNINA
