解説
Tracing corporeality and materiality across Cuban texts and images of the twentieth century
This volume looks at Cuban literature and art that challenges traditional assumptions about the body. Examining how writers and artists have depicted racial, gender, and species differences throughout the past century, Christina Garcia identifies historical continuities in the way they have emphasized the shared materiality of bodies.
Garcia shows how these works interact with ecologies of the human and nonhuman across diverse media, time periods, and ideologies.
Garcia examines corporeality in a variety of works, including the poetry of Nicolas Guillen and experimental writings of Severo Sarduy; transspecies drawings, paintings, and sculptures by Roberto Fabelo; Tomas Gutierrez Alea's popular queer film Fresa y chocolate; and contemporary narrative fictions by Ena Lucia Portela, Antonio Jose Ponte, and Ahmel Echevarria. Using the lenses of new materialism, critical race studies, critical animal studies, queer studies, and poststructuralism, Garcia engages with Cuban cultural production at the intersection of diverse social issues.
In this book, Garcia explores how certain artistic practices focus on portraying ecological relationships instead of recognizable subjects or shared identity. Corporeal Readings of Cuban Literature and Art demonstrates that through their attention to the connections that different kinds of bodies share, Cuban creators have long undermined rules of classification and unification, reimagining community as shared vulnerability and difference.
