Yavatmal, Maharashtra, India, Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Chicano literature is comparatively recent development in the field of literature has only recently been acknowledged as a significant and worthwhile section of American literature: nevertheless, as Ronoldo Hinojosa states in his essay “Mexican- American: Toward an Identification,” ‘there is a long literary tradition behind what is produced today.’ It has several in intricate and diverse facets. Its main characteristic, fundamental for this body of literature is that deals with ethnic identity, therefore they raised their voices against discrimination. Particularly, the novels state their quest for identity, in their novels as Acosta, Oscar, Zeta, Sandra Cisneros and Candelaria Nash. Keywords: Chicano/a, discrimination, ethnicity, identity, quest ©KY PUBLICATIONS Introduction The problem of identity is one of the most crucial in the development of each and every society. Identity is about belonging and existence of everyone in the society. In American literature this essential problem becomes obvious through the many forms of narratives of the quest for a private, inner identity as a major human experience. Moreover, Chicano literature has several intricate and diverse facets and within its complexity are content distinct strata and orientations.

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.

  • Chicano Literature: Expanding the Bare of American Literature, Bibliography and Resources
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 392 056 CS .215 221 AUTHOR Gonzalez-T., Cesar A.; Salgado, Jose TITLE Chicano Literature: Expanding the Bare of American Literature, Bibliography and Resources. PUB DATE 10 Nov 95 NOTE 18p.; Paper presented at the National Conference of the Community Colleges Humanities Association (Washington, DC, November 9-11, 1995). PUB TYPE Information Analyses (070) Reference Materials Bibliographies (131) Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Bibliographies; *Cultural Context; Higher Education; *Literary History; *Mexican American Literature; United States History IDENTIFIERS *Chicar Literature; Chicano Studies; *Leal (Luis); Lomeli \Francisco A); Mexican American Studies ABSTRACT This paper has 2 parts:(1) an overview of the history and chronology of Chicano literature; and (2) a review of bibliographies of Chicano literature. Chicano literature can be divided into pre-Chicano literature (1535-1959) and contemporary Chicano literature (1959 to the present). Colonial literature is that written between 1542 and the Mexican declaration of independence from Spain in 1810--this literature includes "relaciones," that is, accounts of explorations, histories, dramas, poetry, and writings of a religious nature. Luis Leal, the dean of Chicano studies, designates the period of breaking away from Spain (1810) and the United States takeover (1848) as that of moving "toward literary autonomy." Up to the 1950s, Chicano literature remained an "in-house" phenomenon, ignored by the mainstream. The 1960s was a period of uprising, described by Francisco Lomeli as the "breaking of social barriers." A.major group of writers in the late 1970s became known as "the isolated generation of 1975"--characterized by their moving in disparate and innovative ways.

  • American Book Awards 2005
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2005 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.
