Most of these people were taken by the military to clandestine prisons where they were tortured and killed. The children of these victims were also seized, and pregnant women were kept alive long enough to give birth. An estimated five hundred infants and young children of the disappeared were given for adoption to highly connected families. This thesis consists of a historical background of these events and then offers a series of explanations as to why the military did this. Abstract (French) Pendant la dictature militaire en Argentine (1976.1983),30.000 civils ont • disparu. La majorité de ces personnes a été emmenée par les militaires aux prisons clandestines où elles ont été torturées et détruites. Les enfants de ces victimes ont été également arrêtés, et des femmes enceintes ont été maintenues vivantes assez longtemps pour donner naissance à leur enfant. On estime que cinq cent bébés et jeunes enfants des disparu ont été donnés en adoption a des familles hautement connectées avec la junte. Cette thèse commence par présenter un historique de ces événements puis propose une série d'explications quant aux motifs qui ont amené les militaires à commettre ces actes. • 2 • Acknowledgements Foremost, 1would like to thank my supervisor Allan Young for his wisdom and guidance.

Yet violence is absent from most of the early anthropologicalliterature. When it was discussed. it was generally depersonalized and viewed as a tacit element of cultural pradiees such as feuds. witcheraft, initiation rites and warfare. Many eany anthropologists identified feuds as the predominant form of violence. ln The Andaman Islanders, Radcliffe-Brown deseribes violence this way where "the whole art of fighting was ta come upon your enemies by surprise, kil! one or two of them and then retreat."(Radcliffe-Brown 1932:85) ln his summary of the anthropologieal • Iiterature on feuds based on ethnographie evidenee from Mediterranean and Middle East cultures, Jacob Black-Michaud argues that what had been identified as a feud "yields a bewildering variety of interpretations, ranging from individual aets of lethal retaliation for homicide. injury or insult, ta repeated acts of full seale aggression between large ethnie groups whose adult male population may number several thousand strong."(Black-Michaud 1975:1) 50 the word "teud," as it is generally employed by anthropologists, would seem to subsume numerous different types of violent actions in one general term. Like feud. witchcraft also represented a locus of violence in the conventional representation of tribal and traditional societies. The classic definition of witchcraft in the anthropologieal Iiterature is that it is "the covert use of mystical forms of aggression by human agents."(Goody 1970:207) Writing about witchcraft among the Azande. Mary • Douglas describes how "every death was (said to bel caused either by witehcraft or by 5 vengeance magic against the guilty witch."(Douglas 1970:XVI) Individuals may resort to witchcraft accusations as a weapon of attacking another persen. The accuser can then • become a victim ot physical or muai violence as a reprisaI. Earty anthropologists showed no interest in violence as a thing-in-itself nor did they attempt to suggest what categories of behavior constituted violence. that is, whether it was Iimited to the infliction of lethal force, injury, and pain, or whether it might also include psychological violence (e.g. threats, coercion) and loss or damage to property. This lack of anthropological interest in violence as an object of inquiry can be traced to the limitations of the dominant theoretical perspective of this period. Functionalism, the reigning anthropologieal paradigm, located social life in the "ethnographie present," Le. time out of time (Fabian 1983). Further, these ethnographies were often normative aecounts of behavior, from which confliet, coercion and resistance are either absent or deemphasized. The description of warfare in Raymond Firth's We, the Tikopia is an example of • writing in this tradition. According to Firth, war functioned as one of several possible "mechanisms of population control" that could also include celibacy, "coitus interruptus sex gratification," infanticide or sea-voyaging. Of these options, war was a "Iast resort" to be utilized only in the most severe cases to drive out a section of people to ensure social stability. Firth acknowledges that, at the time of his writing, European contact and fear of the colonial govemment would prohibit this from occurring. (Firth 1936) Reeently. the absence of the European colonial presence trom the "ethnographie present" has become one of the major critiques of functionalism. (Asad 1973; Fabian 1983) This monopolization of violence in the hands of the colonial powers was a reason why anthropologists could ignore violence sinee the colonial presence itself was largely • dtsregarded. The colonial context was the reason most functionafist anthropologists 6 were able to do research among a specifie community. It was also a reason why violence could not be addressed in their work. Endogenous violence was relatively rare • since the colonial powers had a policy of suppressing it in the interest of an orderly civil administration and economic development along imperiallines.

My central argument is that a close and comparative reading of the role of this cultural figure in the American context, anchored in three representative cases from Argentina—a dictatorship, Mexico—a nominal democracy, and Puerto Rico—a colonially-occupied and minoritized community within the United States, reveals that the liberal idealization of the subject of human rights relies upon the implicit pedagogical regulation of an educable subject of human rights.

Adopting a broad definition of “the testimonial world” to encompass fictional and documentary literature and film, the pages that follow focus on testimonial work in Latin America from 1969-1991. By exploring testimonial’s narrative qualities, historical relationship to ethnography and memoir, and attention to gender and ethnicity, this study considers the symbolic re-representation of violence in testimonial texts and the ethics (and the reader’s ethical position) they advocate, particularly in positioning the reader as responsible to an “other” who is a victim of violence.

    Letras Hispanas Volume 11, 2015 TITLE: “Tenues límites entre la historia y las historias:” Reading Alicia Partnoy’s Textual and Visual Testimony, La Escuelita AUTHOR: Patricia Lopex Gay E-MAIL: [email protected] AFFILIATION: Bard College; Foreign Languages, Cultures, and Literatures; 30 Campus Rd, Annan- dale-On-Hudson, NY 12504 ABSTRACT: Alicia Partnoy’s literary testimony, The Little School. Tales of Disappearance and Survival in Argentina, was first published in English translation in 1986. The focus of this study is the original Spanish manuscript revised by the author and published twenty years later in Argentina under the title La Escuelita. Relatos testimoniales. I address two aspects of said work that have not yet received due critical attention: the reinforcement of the testimonial function of the Spanish literary text due to its acceptance as legal evidence in the truth trials of 1999, and the role that the visual representations made by Raquel Partnoy, the author’s mother, play within the testimonial narrative. Departing from these images, I analyze the original ways in which La Escuelita attests to the transgressive use of fiction made by victims during captivity. I argue that rather than be opposed to referential testimony, fiction becomes here the lens through which victims relate to and make sense of the world. In a final reflection, I examine the distancing and identification ef- fects that mark testimonial narrative, inserting that narrative in a broader discourse of solidarity and social justice which opens La Escuelita to the real. KEYWORDS: Argentinian literature, contemporary Latin American literature, La Escuelita; Partnoy, Alicia; Testimony and Fiction, Text and Image RESUMEN: El testimonio literario de Alicia Partnoy, The Little School.

Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table of contents pages from current issues of majorfeminist journals are reproduced in each issue of Feminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication.
