For most of the 20th century, Latin American literature and art
have contested political and cultural projects of homogenization of
a manifestly diverse continent. Cultural Antagonism and the Crisis
of Reality in Twentieth-Century Latin America explores literary and
humanist experimentations and questions of gender, race, and
ethnicity as well as the contradictions of capitalist development
that belie such homogenization by reconfiguring the sense of the
real in Latin America. Covering four key geographical areas,
Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and the Andes, every chapter
delves into a question that has been central to the humanities in
the last 20 years: Indigenous world-views, gender, race,
neo-liberalism and visual culture. Legras illuminates these issues
with a thorough consideration of the theoretical questions inherent
to how new identities disrupt the imaginary stability of social
formations.
