Made in the Margins: Latina/o Constructions of US Religious History: New Perspectives on Latina/o Religion

Autor Hjamil A. Martnez-Vzquez
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 mar 2013
Though the writing of US religious history has become increasingly open to new voices, Hjamil A. Martnez-Vzquez argues that those voices have yet to challenge effectively the dominant Eurocentric historical perspective. In this first Latina/o American religious historiography, Martnez-Vzquez critiques the traditional narrative not for what it says, but for what it does not say. Made in the Margins considers the ways in which traditional historiography has favored a specific understanding of US religious history and offers a new method of constructing Latina/o histories as "subaltern." And, in so doing, Made in the Margins ably begins the necessary conversation about truly doing history from within previously marginalized communities and disciplines.

Recenzii

"Martanez-Vazquez addresses big issues that no analyst of Latino/a religious history or North American religion can afford to ignore." -- Timothy Matovina, University of Notre Dame
"Martanez-Vazquez successfully proposes a thorough decolonizing approach to Latina/o religious history--one that dares to acknowledge, deconstruct, and overcome the colonial gaze that all too often surreptitiously undergirds even most of our own liberatory efforts to know otherwise. Made in the Margins is a must-read for any and all interested in how to re-conceive Latina/o religious history in the United States." -- Otto Maduro, President, American Academy of Religion and Professor of World Christianity, Drew University Theological School
