Recenzii
Well written and exquisitely researched ... Ends of Assimilation: The Formation of Chicano Literature is a timely, original, and provocative study. While mainly addressing longterm issues in Chicano studies, Cutlers findings have deep implications for other fields in Latino studies.
Elegantly lucid, Ends of Assimilation traces the complex institutional dynamics of Chicana/o literature as it emerges in critical dialog with assimilation sociology. In writing the first systematic analysis of this relationship, Cutler has crafted an invaluable guide for understanding the origins and future directions of Latina/o literary scholarship.
Bringing together literary works and theories of assimilation, Ends of Assimilation sharpens our understanding of the ways in which Chicano writers have engaged and challenged ideas about assimilation in the United States. Cutler deftly draws attention to assimilation discourse as both an ideology and cultural artifact in this original and timely study.
In Ends of Assimilation, John Alba Cutler compellingly rethinks the history of Chicana/o literature by bringing it into conversation with assimilation sociology, a heretofore neglected critical task. Every chapter is filled with deft, nuanced interpretations that made me rethink what I know about the classics of Chicana/o literature as well as more contemporary works. In just one monograph, Cutler has reshaped the history of Chicana/o literature. A must read!
