D. STEWART Thesis submitted to the University of St. Andrews in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Ph.D. MAY 1996 AU NI V, ABSTRACT Perspectives of the River Plate around the time of Rosas: An analysis based upon the personal correspondence, private memoirs and published accounts of British settlers, as well as literary works by creole authors lain A. D. Stewart Thesis for the Degree of Ph. D., University of St. Andrews This thesis draws inspiration from the emergence of cultural studies as an academic pursuit, in addition to the current renewal of interest in the relationship between literary works and their socio-cultural milieux, to bring together an assortment of textual traces pertaining to the River Plate around the era of Juan Manuel de Rosas, governor of Buenos Aires and de facto dictator of Argentina for most of the period 1829-1852. The main texts analysed range from private documents relating to two Scottish settler families, through accounts published by British citizens with first- hand knowledge of the region (Un ingl6s, Cinco ahos en Buenos Aires and Beaumont, Travels in Buenos Ayres and the Aqlaceni 1'rovinces), to three influential pieces of early Argentinian literature (Echeverria's El inaladero, Mdrmol's Anialia and Sarrmento's Facundo). One justification of this apparently eclectic approach lies in the prominence accorded to the incorner in the thought of liberal Platme intellectuals, a concern evinced in their literary production. The methodology involves examining the representation of certain fundamental topics acrossthis rangeof written artefacts, observing frequent points of thematic convergenceamongst the various texts. In this fashion, I construct an image of the River Plate region around the Rosasperiod, whilst also appraising the degree to which early British settlers matchedthe idealized notion of the immigrant present in liberal creole writings. fhe study is divided into four main chapters, supplemented by an introduction, conclusion and appendix. The first chapter summarizes the historical context of the young Platme republics; the second deals with the themes of society, community and family, the third focuses upon religion; the fourth considers perspectives of politics, dictatorship and civil war. The appendix consists of an unpublished settler autobiography, a remarkable account of the tribulations faced on a daily basis in the developing Argentina.

Famosamente infame su nombre fue desolaciönen las casas, idolätrico amor en el gauchaje y horror del tai .o en la garganta. Jorge Luis Borges, 'Rosas' Fervor de Buenos Aires INTRODUCTION Some preliminary remarks110 The rise of the cultural studies approach in recent years has opened a gamut of new possibilities for the researcher interested in the relationship between textual representations and the social, political and cultural circumstances of their 1 production. As studies of an interdisciplinary nature have gradually infiltrated the academic world, the parallel analysis of outwardly diverse and separate forms of discourse, with the purpose of perceiving their mutual illumination, has steadily gained acceptance, to some extent eroding the privileged status of the literary canon and moving towards a more egalitarian treatment of the multifarious communicative practices of human society. Many exponents of this new method emphasize its ambitious, indefatigable radicalism, translating the ethos of innovation into a quasi- political stance. Fred Inglis, for example, makes the following programmatic statement: Cultural Studies aspire to the perfect balancing of spontaneity with seriousness, and of both with an energetic solidarity towards what is done to all those people, and the quotidian expression of their lives, who have suffered under political oppression, academic insolence, and the customary pains of historical indifference. 2 Whilst not wishing to adopt the conceptual framework of cultural studies wholesale, especially not insofar as any ideological commitment is concerned, I hope to draw The renewed enthusiasm for contextualizing the literary work was most clearly articulated, albeit with a disparaging tone, by J. Hillis Miller in his now famous Presidential Address to the IIALA: 'Literary study in the past few years has undergone a sudden, almost universal turn away from theory in the sense of an orientation toward language as such and has made a corresponding turn toward history, culture, society, politics, institutions, class and gender conditions, the social context, the material base'. 'Presidential Address 1986. The Triumph of Theory, the Resistance to Reading, and the Question of the Material Base', PULA 102 (1987), 281-91 (p. 283)- 2 Fred Inglis, Cullural Studies (Oxfor& Blackwell, 1993), p. 18 upon its liberating possibilities, its capacity to dissolve the boundaries which conventionally demarcate the intellectual field. The term 'culture', described by Raymond Williams as 'one of the two or three most complicated words in the English language, has itself undergone a reappraisal, no longer denoting the intellectual and artistic activity of a talented and frequently dominant minority, but often now deployed to represent any practice or product ascribed to humankind, particularly those arising from some appreciable creative endeavour. 3 The present study espouses this broad definition, focusing upon very different types of roughly contemporary writing without consciously privileging one form above another. To a certain degree, the project coincides With the currently modish technique of new historicism, an approach which adroitly combines the issues of context and expression, offering the rapprochement of literature and history as an antidote to the hegemony of linguistically-oriented criticiSM. 4 According to Greenblatt, a pioneer of new historicism, or the 'poetics of culture' as he prefers to call his practice, the central value of this critical method is'an intensified willingness to read all of the textual traces of the past with the attention traditionally conferred onIV on literary texts'. 5 Few statements better encapsulate the project of this thesis. The texts to be analysed throughout this study all ostensibly portray social, community or personal 'reality'. However, this does not mean to say that we can accept any one of these accounts as authoritative or objective, nor even that any stable, absolute truth can be reached by fashioning a collage

There are those, it is true, who question the importance of his career and reject the cult of the hero. For them the meaning of liberation is to be found in the study of economic struc- tures, social classes and the international conjuncture, not in military actions and the lives of liberators. In this view Carlyle’s discourse on heroes is a mu- seum piece and his elevation of heroes as the prime subject of history a misconception.

  • Film, Photojournalism, and the Public Sphere in Brazil and Argentina, 1955-1980
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: MODERNIZATION AND VISUAL ECONOMY: FILM, PHOTOJOURNALISM, AND THE PUBLIC SPHERE IN BRAZIL AND ARGENTINA, 1955-1980 Paula Halperin, Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Directed By: Professor Barbara Weinstein Department of History University of Maryland, College Park My dissertation explores the relationship among visual culture, nationalism, and modernization in Argentina and Brazil in a period of extreme political instability, marked by an alternation of weak civilian governments and dictatorships. I argue that motion pictures and photojournalism were constitutive elements of a modern public sphere that did not conform to the classic formulation advanced by Jürgen Habermas. Rather than treating the public sphere as progressively degraded by the mass media and cultural industries, I trace how, in postwar Argentina and Brazil, the increased production and circulation of mass media images contributed to active public debate and civic participation. With the progressive internationalization of entertainment markets that began in the 1950s in the modern cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Buenos Aires there was a dramatic growth in the number of film spectators and production, movie theaters and critics, popular magazines and academic journals that focused on film. Through close analysis of images distributed widely in international media circuits I reconstruct and analyze Brazilian and Argentine postwar visual economies from a transnational perspective to understand the constitution of the public sphere and how modernization, Latin American identity, nationhood, and socio-cultural change and conflict were represented and debated in those media. Cinema and the visual after World War II became a worldwide locus of production and circulation of discourses about history, national identity, and social mores, and a space of contention and discussion of modernization.

  • The Individualist Legacy in Latin America
    REFLECTIONS The Individualist Legacy in Latin America —————— ✦ —————— ALVARO VARGAS LLOSA t is often said that the root of Latin America’s underdevelopment lies in its sta- tist tradition.1 That tradition goes as far back as the pre-Columbian states, under I which masses of laborers toiled for the benefit of the ruling classes; it includes three centuries of corporatist and mercantilist Ibero-Catholic rule; and it has been compounded in modern times by the elitist independent republics. Through a com- bination of institutional arrangements set in place at various times by the governing cliques and cultural values transmitted from generation to generation, Latin Amer- ica’s tradition weighs so heavily against ideas of limited government, the rule of law, and personal responsibility that it would seem that an almost determinist view is jus- tified in regarding liberty as beyond the region’s reach. Yet from the days when Indians in parts of Central America and Mexico used cacao seeds as money to the present-day informal economy, the instinct of the Latin American people is no different from that of the rest of the human species. Nothing suggests that the native cultures, either in their precolonial or in their mestizo forms, could not have responded creatively and successfully to the incentives of liberty had they been allowed to operate under less-oppressive conditions. An individualist spirit has sought to manifest itself in Latin America in all histor- ical periods. This legacy goes as far back as the family units that worked their own land and exchanged goods in ancient times, moving from them to the Jesuits of the School Alvaro Vargas Llosa is a research fellow at The Independent Institute.

    1 THE PARROT AND THE CANNON. JOURNALISM, LITERATURE AND POLITICS IN THE FORMATION OF LATIN AMERICAN IDENTITIES By Pablo L. Calvi Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Columbia University 2011 2 © 2011 Pablo Calvi All rights reserved 3 Abstract THE PARROT AND THE CANNON. JOURNALISM, LITERATURE AND POLITICS IN THE FORMATION OF LATIN AMERICAN IDENTITIES Pablo Calvi The Parrot and the Cannon. Journalism, Literature and Politics in the Formation of Latin American Identities explores the emergence of literary journalism in Latin America as a central aspect in the formation of national identities. Focusing on five periods in Latin American history from the post-colonial times until the 1960s, it follows the evolution of this narrative genre in parallel with the consolidation of professional journalism, the modern Latin American mass media and the formation of nation states. In the process, this dissertation also studies literary journalism as a genre, as a professional practice, and most importantly as a political instrument. By exploring the connections between journalism, literature and politics, this dissertation also illustrates the difference between the notions of factuality, reality and journalistic truth as conceived in Latin America and the United States, while describing the origins of Latin American militant journalism as a social-historical formation. i Table of Contents Introduction.

    Sarmiento, Echeverría and Hernández’s Implementation of Historical Reciprocation in Argentina’s Battle of Oppression by Stephen Talbot Buys A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Spanish Auburn, Alabama August 9, 2010 Approved by Patrick Greene, Chair, Assistant Professor of Spanish Jana Gutiérrez, Associate Professor of Spanish Lourdes Betanzos, Associate Professor of Spanish Abstract The socioeconomic state of Argentina during the mid-nineteenth century is characterized by a search for identity and rescue from governmental oppression. The study of various genres of literature is valuable in developing a proper understanding of the problems and remedies presented by the authors of that time period. Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, writer of Facundo, Esteban Echeverría, author of “El Matadero” and La Cautiva, and José Hernández, writer of Martín Fierro offer a fitting variety of works including prose and poetry to this study of their common theme of oppression as a socioeconomic issue in Argentina’s search for identity. Throughout this investigation, each author implements historical reciprocation by utilizing a past event and the drama within the work to diagnose the issue of governmental oppression and offer a prognosis for the future of the nation. Furthermore, a brief biographical sketch of each author offers an understanding of his political and personal viewpoints during the time of composition, while maintaining a consistent theme in light of each works’ variation of literary genre. ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for providing the ability, will power, and vision to complete this work.

Se trata, por tanto, de un campo muy limi- tado que me obligará a ser lo más concreto posible, especialmente en la pri- mera parte. En una segunda parte intentaré analizar dichos argumentos de Alberdi a la luz de su formación filosófica y de las influencias latino- europeas.
