  • Beneath the Surface: Argentine-United States Relations As Perón Assumed the Presidency
    Beneath the Surface: Argentine-United States Relations as Perón Assumed the Presidency Vivian Reed June 5, 2009 HST 600 Latin American Seminar Dr. John Rector 1 Juan Domingo Perón was elected President of Argentina on February 24, 1946,1 just as the world was beginning to recover from World War II and experiencing the first traces of the Cold War. The relationship between Argentina and the United States was both strained and uncertain at this time. The newly elected Perón and his controversial wife, Eva, represented Argentina. The United States’ presence in Argentina for the preceding year was primarily presented through Ambassador Spruille Braden.2 These men had vastly differing perspectives and visions for Argentina. The contest between them was indicative of the relationship between the two nations. Beneath the public and well-documented contest between Perón and United States under the leadership of Braden and his successors, there was another player whose presence was almost unnoticed. The impact of this player was subtlety effective in normalizing relations between Argentina and the United States. The player in question was former United States President Herbert Hoover, who paid a visit to Argentina and Perón in June of 1946. This paper will attempt to describe the nature of Argentine-United States relations in mid-1946. Hoover’s mission and insights will be examined. In addition, the impact of his visit will be assessed in light of unfolding events and the subsequent historiography. The most interesting aspect of the historiography is the marked absence of this episode in studies of Perón and Argentina3 even though it involved a former United States President and the relations with 1 Alexander, 53.

María Eva Duarte de Perón (1919-1952) fue el centro de una serie de eventos que no solo cambiaron el rumbo de su vida sino también el del mundo político y social de Argentina. Su vida se llama a la observación, el análisis y la búsqueda de respuestas a cómo una simple e ilegítima niña logró llegar a las más altas cumbres de la sociedad argentina. La capacidad de Eva para adaptarse y sobrepasar contratiempos conjuntamente con su estilo único y astucia la catapultaron al estrellato marcando la memoria del pueblo argentino y la comunidad internacional. Dentro de vasto material literario y artístico sobre la vida y obra de Eva, se pueden mencionar: Eva Perón (1970) de Otelo Borroni y Roberto Vacca, La pasión según Eva (1994) de Abel Posse, Eva Perón, the bibliography (1995) de Alicia Dujovne Ortíz, El misterio de Eva Perón (1988,documental) de Tulio Demicheli, Evita Pre-Madonna (1995, documental) de Claudia Nie, Santa Evita (1995) de Tomás Eloy Martínez, Evita (1996, film) de Alan Parker y Evita: Santa o Demonio (1996, film) de Juan Carlos de Sanzo.

  • Madonna's Postmodern Revolution
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, January 2021, Vol. 11, No. 1, 26-32 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2021.01.004 D DAVID PUBLISHING The Rebel Madame: Madonna’s Postmodern Revolution Diego Santos Vieira de Jesus ESPM-Rio, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil The aim is to examine Madonna’s revolution regarding gender, sexuality, politics, and religion with the focus on her songs, videos, and live performances. The main argument indicates that Madonna has used postmodern strategies of representation to challenge the foundational truths of sex and gender, promote gender deconstruction and sexual multiplicity, create political sites of resistance, question the Catholic dissociation between the physical and the divine, and bring visual and musical influences from multiple cultures and marginalized identities. Keywords: Madonna, postmodernism, pop culture, sex, gender, sexuality, politics, religion, spirituality Introduction Madonna is not only the world’s highest earning female entertainer, but a pop culture icon. Her career is based on an overall direction that incorporates vision, customer and industry insight, leveraging competences and weaknesses, consistent implementation, and a drive towards continuous renewal. She constructed herself often rewriting her past, organized her own cult borrowing from multiple subaltern subcultures, and targeted different audiences. As a postmodern icon, Madonna also reflects social contradictions and attitudes toward sexuality and religion and addresses the complexities of race and gender. Her use of multiple media—music, concert tours, films, and videos—shows how images and symbols associated with multiracial, LGBT, and feminist groups were inserted into the mainstream. She gave voice to political interventions in mass popular culture, although many critics argue that subaltern voices were co-opted to provide maximum profit.

A CINEMA IN BUENOS AIRES, 26 JULY 1952 (An audience is watching a less than distinguished movie [in both the original London and New York productions of EVITA a clip from one of Eva Peron's own movies was used]. The soundtrack dialogue is in Spanish, the music melodramatic. Suddenly the film grinds to a halt. The people in the cinema begin to protest but are silenced by an announcement) THE VOICE OF THE SECRETARY OF THE PRESS (in Spanish) It is the sad duty of the Secretary of the Press... (in English) ...to inform the people of Argentina that Eva Peron, spiritual leader of the nation, entered immortality at 20.25 hours today. 2. REQUIEM FOR EVITA / OH WHAT A CIRCUS (EVA's funeral.

    FROM THE BALCONY, seniors Avery LaRue and Curtis Faulkner emerge as the new leaders of Argentina. The musical offered the actors new opportunities. “I was excited to work with Avery because we have worked with each other, but not as closely as characters who are interacting in a very deep and complicated relationship,” Faulkner said. PHOTO BY LIZ LOPEZ LIVIN’ EVITA LOCA 10 years later, the Starlight Theatre Company relives Evita Without a doubt, the Starlight Theatre production of Evita has changed immensely since the last time the musical was put on 10 years ago. W ”The biggest change in this production of Evita as compared to the last one was that we had three ‘Evitas,’ and they each had three performances, but they played Evita the entire way through. We came up with this concept of having three different Evitas every night as a way to give more people an opportunity and kind of just change it up,“ Director Marco Bazan said. The production has grown in the size of cast members, incorporated a larger, two story set, and has even doubled the amount of directors. “The combination of students we had and the challenge level of the music. There are always so many factors that Shannon Ross, Nicole Chenevert, Sofia Hutton and Katie Norris Sofia Hutton Chenevert, Nicole Shannon Ross, we consider, before we choose the musical,” Director Ms. Betsy Cornwell said. The show’s huge success was due to the hard work put in by the large cast and new directors. ”I think that the newer directors brought a new, inspired kind of energy to the production,” Bazan said.
