Jorge Teillier
Author: Teresa R. Stojkov
Publisher: Bucknell University Press
ISBN: 9780838755051
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
"The study concludes with a rereading of Teillier's poetry itself. Stojkov's analyses depend upon a sense of the subject's constituting consciousness and the ability of the reader to participate in it. Through the approach proposed here, she arrives at a method not only for reading Teillier's poetry, but also for evaluating its unique significance within both the national and international contexts."--BOOK JACKET.

Holy Terrors
Author: Diana Taylor
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 0822385325
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 461
Book Description
Holy Terrors presents exemplary original work by fourteen of Latin America’s foremost contemporary women theatre and performance artists. Many of the pieces—including one-act plays, manifestos, and lyrics—appear in English for the first time. From Griselda Gambaro, Argentina's most widely recognized playwright, to such renowned performers as Brazil's Denise Stoklos and Mexico’s Jesusa Rodríguez, these women are involved in some of Latin America's most important aesthetic and political movements. Of varied racial and ethnic backgrounds, they come from across Latin America—Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Puerto Rico, Peru, and Cuba. This volume is generously illustrated with over seventy images. A number of the performance pieces are complemented by essays providing context and analysis. The performance pieces in Holy Terrors are powerful testimonies to the artists' political and personal struggles. These women confront patriarchy, racism, and repressive government regimes and challenge brutality and corruption through a variety of artistic genres. Several have formed theatre collectives—among them FOMMA (a Mayan women’s theatre company in Chiapas) and El Teatro de la máscara in Colombia. Some draw from cabaret and ‘frivolous’ theatre traditions to create intense and humorous performances that challenge church and state. Engaging in self-mutilation and abandoning traditional dress, others use their bodies as the platforms on which to stage their defiant critiques of injustice. Holy Terrors is a unique English-language presentation of some of Latin America's fiercest, most provocative art.
