  • La Cultura Popular En El Drama Cubano Del Siglo Xx
    LA CULTURA POPULAR EN EL DRAMA CUBANO DEL SIGLO XX By MARIA del CARMEN GONZALEZ A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA A mis padres que murieron con la nostalgia de regre- sarasu patria y me ense- ñaron a amar la verdad y la justicia. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my appreciation to all of those who have helped me in my career, especially Dr. Ivan Schulman, my mentor. Grateful acknowledgment is made to the memory of Dr. Graciela Coulson who contributed to my interest in the theme of this dissertation. My gratitude also goes to Manuel, my husband, for his constant spiritual support during my gradúate studies. PRELIMINARY NOTE In the analysis of Cuba's popular culture, the diverse ethnic elements of the island as well as the violent ideologic and economic changes that shaped its history must be taken into account. These changes had 'a major influence on the idiosyncratic character of the Cuban people and its writers, in particular its dramatists, whose works reflect and express these transformations , from the Colony to revolu- tionary Cuba. In the twentieth century, on which our study centers, Cuba's socioeconomic problems restructured its history and culture. Moderni- zation began in the nineteenth century with the transition from a tra- ditional, agriculture-based society and its cyclical patterns and their replacement with the disruptive, often discordant structures of our modern age. The struggle against concrete, historical time prior to the twentieth century is a characteristic of traditional societies.

  • World Music: Song 1 Cuba a Musical Stew: Guantanamera
    CUBA: A MUSICAL STEW Located 90 mile south of Florida, Cuba is a long, large island that sits between the Gulf Of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. Like the United States, people from all over the world have come to Cuba to live. Native Americans called the Taino and Ciboney people were the first people to live on the island. The Spanish arrived in Cuba in the early 1500s and ruled the island for more than 300 years. Most people in Cuba still speak Spanish today. You can hear sounds of the Spanish in the melodies and instruments of Cuban Music, too. A Little Bit of Africa The influence of Africa is strongly felt in Cuban life and its music. Over 400,000 Africans were brought to Cuba by the 1800s to work on sugar plantations. They brought with them pieces of their culture, including their musical traditions. You can hear them in the fiery rhythms and cool percussion instruments like the bata drum ensemble. There are three bata drums: okonkolo (the smallest), itotele (the middle drum), and iya (the leader). By playing together, they create complex patterns. The iya even “talks” to the other drums with special rhythms! Cubans Have Style One beautiful music style in Cuba is the son. Like the blues in the United States, the son is very important in Cuba. It is a slow, proud style that features piano, bass, guitar, trombone, trumpet, congas, and one or more singers. Recently, the Buena Vista social Club helped make this style one of the most popular Cuban Styles again.
