Transcultural Nationalism in Hispano-Filipino Literature: Historical and Cultural Interconnections between Latin America and Asia

Autor Irene Villaescusa Illán
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 iul 2021
This book studies a selection of works of Philippine literature written in Spanish during the American occupation of the Philippines (1902-1946). It explores the place of Filipino nationalism in a selection of fiction and non-fiction texts by Spanish-speaking Filipino writers Jesús Balmori, Adelina Gurrea Monasterio, Paz Mendoza Guazón, and Antonio Abad. Taking an interdisciplinary approach that draws from Anthropology, History, Literary Studies, Cultural Analysis and World Literature, this book offers a comparative analysis of the position of these authors toward the cultural transformations that have taken place as a result of the Philippines' triple history of colonization (by Spain, the US, and Japan) while imagining an independent nation. Engaging with an untapped archive, this book is a relevant and timely contribution to the fields of both Filipino and Hispanic literary studies.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

“This book constitutes so far the most compelling and sound research in the area of Philippine literature in Spanish. By exploring identity and nationalism in four Philippine writers in the Spanish language during the American occupation, the author rediscovers a marginalized literary tradition punctuated by political resistance and an uncommon originality.”
 --Jorge Mojarro, University of Santo Tomas, Philippines

Caracteristici

Seeks to reveal how selected examples of Hispano-Filipino literature from the twentieth century interact with contemporary debates and theories of nationalism and globalization Shows that the transculturation of Philippine culture as experienced, promoted and expressed by the elite of Spanish-speaking Filipinos reveals contrasting and ambiguous sentiments of mourning, embracement and betrayal towards the cultures in contact Investigates what forms of transculturation - assimilation, loss, innovation - appear in the selected literary texts and how the constant transformation of the Philippines modelled by the cultures of its various colonizers and other global actors (Mexico, Cuba or Japan, for example) interacts with the formation of a distinct national imaginary
