This critical interdisciplinary volume investigates modern and
contemporary Asian cultural products in the non-westernized
transpacific context of Asian and Latin American intellectual and
cultural connections. It focuses on the Latin American
intellectual, literary, and cultural influences on Asia, which have
long been overshadowed by the dominance of Europe/North
America-oriented discourse and by the predominance of academic
research by both Asian and western intellectuals that focuses only
on the West. Moving beyond the western intellectual paradigm, the
volume examines how Asian literature, films, and art interact with
Latin American literature and ideas to reexamine, reconsider, and
re-explore issues related to the two regions' historical traumas,
cultural identities, indigenous/vernacular traditions, and
peripheral global-ness. The volume argues that Asian and Latin
American literary and cultural endeavors are part of these regions'
broader efforts to search for the forms of modernity that best fit
their unique sociohistorical and sociocultural conditions.
