Spanning from the 1876 exposition in Philadelphia, through Paris
1889, and culminating in Paris 1900, this book examines how
Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico forged the image of a modernizing
Latin America at the moment of their insertion into the new visual
economy of capitalism, as well as how their modern writers
experienced and narrated these events by introducing new literary
forms and modernizing literary language. Following these
itineraries overseas and back, Uslenghi illuminates the contested,
political, and transformative relations that emerged as images and
material culture travelled from sites of production to those of
exhibition, exchange, and consumption.
