Google Preview: Gender in Hispanic Literature and Visual Arts provides an interdisciplinary and multicultural perspective on gender within Hispanic film and literature. The contributors analyze the relationship between the historical and social contexts of various Hispanic countries-including Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Mexico, Peru, Puerto Rico, Spain, and Uruguay-and the effects of their contexts on their representations of gender. This book examines gender-based violence, transvestism, lesbianism, (mis)representation, indigenism, dissent, identity, and voice as a means of better understanding the meaning and implications of gender within the diversity of people and cultures that comprise the Hispanic world.; Chapter 1 Identity, Consciousness, and Transgression in Argentinian Fiction: Luisa Valenzuela, Matilde Sanchez and Samanta Schweblin Christina Mougoyanni Hennessy Chapter 2 Gender Under the Lens in Elena Poniatowska's La piel del cielo Olga Colbert Chapter 3 Genre, Gender, and the Translation of Latin America: A Reevaluation of Memoirs of Latin American Women Intellectuals Silvia M.
