Recenzii
'Just a generation ago, scholars acknowledged the first sightings of blacks in the Spanish American archives. By making Africans and their descendants legible and audible in ways that just recently were inconceivable, Beyond Babel transforms our historical imagination. Brewer-García's foundational contribution to this dynamic field of study is remarkable.' Herman L. Bennett, The Graduate Center, City University of New York
'In this scrupulously researched and rigorously argued book, Brewer-García releases from archival obscurity and historiographical neglect the voice of Afro-Latin American men and women, demonstrating their role as vital thinkers and authors of the early modern era. Her close, historically grounded analysis of texts featuring black thought in colonial Lima and Cartagena offers a powerful revision of the definition and meaning of blackness in slavery-era South America, and the early modern world at large.' Cécile Fromont, Yale University and author of The Art of Conversion: Christian Visual Culture in the Kingdom of Kongo
'Beyond Babel is a beautifully rendered account of black intermediaries who made Catholic conversion among enslaved peoples possible. Brewer-García reveals the multivalent meanings of religious virtue and black sainthood among enslaved Africans in the Americas as the religious mandate of the Catholic Kings assumed primacy in the legitimation of enslavement and settlement. Deeply researched and clearly written, Beyond Babel will influence the fields of race, religion, diaspora, and identity in the early modern world.' Michelle McKinley, University of Oregon and author of Fractional Freedoms: Slavery, Intimacy, and Legal Mobilization in Colonial Lima
'In this carefully researched, accessible, well-organized study, Brewer-Garcia (Latin American literature, Univ. of Chicago) explores the influences that Black men and women had on the production of written texts in 16th- and 17th-century Lima (Peru) and Cartagena (Colombia) … her greatest contribution is bringing long-ignored archival materials documenting the experiences of Black Christians (e.g., Oraciones traducidas en la lengua del Reino de Angola, 1629) to the attention of a wider scholarly audience.' S. D. Glazier, Choice
'It is a well-researched book that convincingly shows how Black inter-preters were able to carve a space of authority for themselves … Beyond Babel is an excellent example of how to uncover the life story and agency of those groups and individuals … the book will be most interesting for its keen reading of key Jesuit texts.' Andrés I. Prieto, Journal of Jesuit Studies
