Slum Clearance in Havana in an Age of Revolution, 1930-65
SLEEPING ON THE ASHES: SLUM CLEARANCE IN HAVANA IN AN AGE OF REVOLUTION, 1930-65 by Jesse Lewis Horst Bachelor of Arts, St. Olaf College, 2006 Master of Arts, University of Pittsburgh, 2012 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P.

It challenges the notion of a “great divide” between Republic and Revolution by tracing contentious interactions between technocrats, politicians, and financial elites on one hand, and mobilized, mostly-Afro-descended tenants and shantytown residents on the other hand. The dynamics of housing inequality in Havana not only reflected existing socio- racial hierarchies but also produced and reconfigured them in ways that have not been systematically researched. -
A Comparative Case Study of the Political Economy of Music in Cuba and Argentina by Paul Ruffner Honors Capstone Prof
Music, Money, and the Man: A Comparative Case Study of the Political Economy of Music in Cuba and Argentina By Paul Ruffner Honors Capstone Prof. Clarence Lusane May 4, 2009 Political economy is an interpretive framework which has been applied to many different areas in a wide range of societies. Music, however, is an area which has received remarkably little attention; this is especially surprising given the fact that music from various historical periods contains political messages. An American need only be reminded of songs such as Billy Holliday’s “Strange Fruit” or the general sentiments of the punk movement of the 1970s and 80s to realize that American music is not immune to this phenomenon. Cuba and Argentina are two countries with remarkably different historical experiences and economic structures, yet both have experience with vibrant traditions of music which contains political messages, which will hereafter be referred to as political music. That being said, important differences exist with respect to both the politics and economics of the music industries in the two countries. Whereas Cuban music as a general rule makes commentaries on specific historical events and political situations, its Argentine counterpart is much more metaphorical in its lyrics, and much more rhythmically and structurally influenced by American popular music. These and other differences can largely be explained as resulting from the relations between the community of musicians and the state, more specifically state structure and ideological affiliation in both cases, with the addition of direct state control over the music industry in the Cuban case, whereas the Argentine music industry is dominated largely by multinational concerns in a liberal democratic state. -

At a time when the condition of Cuba and its people has been forced upon the attention of the civilized world by another sanguinary contest between Spain and its Great Antillan colony, there is no need of an apology for the appearance of the present work. The American people, especially, have an abiding interest in Cuba, not alone as a matter of sentiment, but by reason of extensive commercial relations with the island and of the important economic facts resulting from those relations ; the condition of Cuba and the Cubans largely concerns us, and a disturbance of those conditions affects our material interests in many ways. Since the beginning of 1895 the prolonged contention between the Cuban colonists and the mother country, which in the past has resulted in numerous insurrections and in a devastating civil war of ten years' duration, has again been taken out of the domain of parliamentary discussion by a resort to force. -

Una Revista Al Servicio De La Nación: Bohemia and the Evolution of Cuban Journalism (1908-1960)
UNA REVISTA AL SERVICIO DE LA NACIÓN: BOHEMIA AND THE EVOLUTION OF CUBAN JOURNALISM (1908-1960) By RICHARD DENIS A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2016 © 2016 Richard Denis To my parents, Elio and Oilda Denis, for their unconditional love and support, and for instilling in me a love of patria at a young age. The memory of them and their sacrifice burns bright in their children and grandchildren. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This work is the result of a lifetime of curiosity about the world my parents were born into, and I want to thank them, Elio and Oilda Denis, for instilling in me a sense of the love and devotion they had for their beloved homeland, their patria. I take some solace in the thought that perhaps their physical absence in this world is mitigated by their spiritual reunion with the country they had to leave. Their countless sacrifices are not forgotten. My advisor Professor Lillian Guerra deserves much of the credit for helping guide me into shaping this work into its current form. Her vast and profound understanding of twentieth century Cuba has always amazed and impressed upon me the importance of working harder to understand Cuban history from as many different perspectives as possible, considering the diverse range of voices that deserve to be heard and represented to give a more nuanced interpretation to the complex history that characterized Cuba before the triumph of the Revolution. I am indebted to Professor Sherry Johnson for mentoring and encouraging me to pursue what I have always loved and for helping to light up my path to graduate school at the University of Florida. -
Patrioten Mit Gitarre. Die Sänger Der Trova Tradicional
Dulcila Cañizares Patrioten mit Gitarre. Die Sänger der trova tradicional Trova und Troubadour, dies sind Wörter, die bei einem Kubaner nicht die Erinnerung an den deutschen Minnesänger des Mittelalters, an die trouvères im Norden Frankreichs oder die provenzalischen Trouba- doure weckt. All diese hatten ihren Aufschwung und Höhepunkt zwi- schen dem 11. und dem 13. Jahrhundert und dürfen nicht verwechselt werden mit den umherwandernden Gauklern. Nein, bei einem Kuba- ner beschwören diese Wörter eine ganz andere Assoziation herauf: Die von Serenaden mit Gitarrenbegleitung, gesungen von armen Ku- banern im 19. und bis weit in das 20. Jahrhundert hinein. Während in Europa die ministriles und Gaukler einfache Leute der Straße waren, war die höfische Unterhaltung Sache der Troubadoure, die hierarchisch eine höhere Stellung bekleideten, denn es handelte sich um einen vom Adel ausgeübten Beruf. In Kuba jedoch hatten die trovadores, wie sie auf Spanisch heißen, nichts gemeinsam mit den Troubadouren im mittelalterlichen Süden Frankreichs. Die ersten ku- banischen trovadores, die anfingen, ihre Verse und Lieder zu machen, gehörten den unteren sozialen Schichten an; sie waren Arbeiter, Schuster, Schneider, konnten sich nur schwer eine Gitarre leisten und waren zudem meist noch Analphabeten, die das Instrument höchstens rudimentär beherrschen lernten, fast immer durch Nachahmung. 1. Wann kam die Gitarre nach Kuba? Es kann angenommen werden, dass die Gitarre, oder vielleicht die Laute, gleich im Jahrhundert der Entdeckung nach Kuba gekommen ist; es fehlen allerdings eindeutige Beweise. Als sicher gilt, dass die Gitarre von den ersten spanischen Siedlern mitgebracht wurde. Die Tage und Nächte fernab der Heimat waren für sie kein schönes Aben- teuer und die Gitarre diente ihnen als Unterhaltungsmöglichkeit. -

Degree awarded June 2014 ii © 2014 Julianne L Graper iii THESIS ABSTRACT Julianne L. Graper Master of Arts School of Music and Dance June 2014 Title: “¿Qué Dice Usted?”: Discourses of Femininity in Nueva Trova Cubana Following the Revolution of 1959, the Cuban government implemented policy reforms geared towards increasing women’s rights. Despite these efforts, however, sexism persists in Cuban society. This difference between rhetoric and reality is reflected in the song genre, nueva trova, which foregrounds a progressive agenda for women’s rights but continues to marginalize their participation. Prominent nueva trova performers Silvio Rodríguez and Pablo Milanés advocate women’s rights in their songs, but their music remains couched in patriarchal structures that prevent women from speaking for themselves. Sara González, one of the first prominent female nueva trova composers, was able to integrate into government-supported trova institutions by adopting a masculine, revolutionary aesthetic, which she then adapted to feminist themes to combat the ideological disparity. -

Revista Transcultural de Música Transcultural Music Review #9 (2005) ISSN:1697-0101 “Somos Cubanos!“ – timba cubana and the construction of national identity in Cuban popular music Patrick Froelicher Abstract The complex processes that led to the emergence of salsa as an expression of a “Latin” identity for Spanish-speaking people in New York City constitute the background before which the Cuban timba discourse has to be seen. Timba, I argue, is the consequent continuation of the Cuban “anti-salsa-discourse” from the 1980s, which regarded salsa basically as a commercial label for Cuban music played by non-Cuban musicians. I interpret timba as an attempt by Cuban musicians to distinguish themselves from the international Salsa scene. This distinction is aspired by regular references to the contemporary changes in Cuban society after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Thus, the timba is a “child” of the socialist Cuban music landscape as well as a product of the rapidly changing Cuban society of the 1990s. -
