Latin American Gothic in Literature and Culture

Latin American Gothic in Literature and Culture

This book explores the Gothic mode as it appears in the literature visual arts and culture of different areas of Latin America. Focusing on works from authors in Mexico Central America the Caribbean the Andes Brazil and the Southern Cone the essays in this volume illuminate the existence of native representations of the Gothic while also exploring the presence of universal archetypes of terror and horror. Through the analysis of global and local Gothic topics and themes they evaluate the reality of a multifaceted territory marked by a shifting colonial and postcolonial relationship with Europe and the United States. The book asks questions such as: Is there such a thing as Latin American Gothic in the same sense that there is an American Gothic and British Gothic? What are the main elements that particularly characterize Latin American Gothic? How does Latin American Gothic function in the context of globalization? What do these elements represent in relation to specific national literatures? What is the relationship between the Gothic and the Postcolonial? What can Gothic criticism bring to the study of Latin American cultural manifestations and conversely what can these offer the Gothic? The analysis performed here reflects a body of criticism that understands the Gothic as a global phenomenon with specific manifestations in particular territories while also acknowledging the effects of Globalgothic on a transnational and transcultural level. Thus the volume seeks to open new spaces and areas of scholarly research and academic discussion both regionally and globally with the presentation of a solid analysis of Latin American texts and other cultural phenomena which are manifestly related to the Gothic world. | Latin American Gothic in Literature and Culture
