Baron, December 2016 Abstract Contemporary scholars agree that the revival of cultural memory concerning the horrors of the twentieth century in the Argentine memory began with kirchnerismo. The ongoing academic discussion about Argentina‟s more recent past, however, has largely ignored the way that the past traumas of the country have influenced the revival of collective cultural memory. This dissertation examines two novels and two films from twenty-first century Argentina. Each pair of novels and films offers a version of history while also offering a reflection on the results of memory, years after the events remembered occurred. The primary academic contribution of the study is to demonstrate how the two novels and two films shape cultural memory and in turn create a new Argentine cultural memory in which the memory of pain caused by social trauma has created a secondary memory. Chapter two focuses on the theories of cultural memory and trauma and how they relate to the Argentine experience. It examines two manifestations of secondary memory: postmemory and prosthetic memory because, instead of future generations having a postmemory that is born into the history of the past trauma, most Argentines share a prosthetic memory. Amy Kaminsky defines post memory as the memory that develops from silence as a way of understanding trauma of the past and generally emerges in subsequent generations that have a tie to the trauma but did not experience it themselves. For Kaminsky, prosthetic memory develops through the products of post memory, such as in art, music, literature, or film, and is generally seen in outsiders, that is, those that are not directly connected with the traumatic event. In the Argentine case, those that were iv Texas Tech University, John E. Baron, December 2016 alive during the trauma itself, present the effects of postmemory, because the initial memory was wiped clean through government intervention and societal cleansing of the past. The advent of holocaust studies initially linked theories of cultural memory and trauma. Even though the Argentine case of trauma and the cultural memory shares some points of contact with the holocaust, the theorization of trauma in the Argentine case differs due to the wiping clean of collective memory primarily through quick trials and later silencing. The dissertation is a contribution to the field of cultural memory studies because it illuminates how the altered process of collective memories in Argentina produced a uniquely defined prosthetic memory in novels and films in subsequent generations. Chapter three analyzes secondary memory and is divided into two sections, each discussing a specific novel. The first section discusses The Promised Hell: A Prostitute of the Zwi Migdal (El infierno prometido: una prostitute de la Zwi Migdal) (2006) by Elsa Drucaroff. In The Promised Hell (El infierno prometido), Drucaroff presents a version of the white slave trade in Argentina. Her version of events serves to bring together her Argentine audience and helps it to recall traumatic events and thus overcome that trauma. She also uses commonly-known Judeo-Christian religious stories to make her reader sympathetic with a personal narrative. The second section discusses On a Same Night (Una misma noche) (2012) by Leopoldo Brizuela. Brizuela presents the way in which events in the present can remind the reader of similar circumstances in the past and thus generate an obsession with those previous events. This obsession then leads to a search for meaning in those events and in turn a way to overcome their trauma. v Texas Tech University, John E. Baron, December 2016 Chapter four focuses on how cultural memory and trauma are addressed in Argentine film. This chapter is also divided into two sections. The first section discusses Chronicle of an Escape (Crónica de una fuga) (2006) directed by Adrián Caetano. Caetano‟s presentation of a detainee during the Process of National Reorganization (Proceso), also called the Dirty War (1976-83), plays on Bazin‟s idea of film as “social documentary” in that it presents a representation of what society desires to see about past trauma. The second section discusses A Less Bad World (Un mundo menos peor) (2004) directed by Alejandro Agresti. This film presents the ways in which the traumatic past is rediscovered in the present through the technique of using a small Argentine coastal town as setting. Agresti presents different social groups and a regional perspective to represent Argentina in coping with the past. vi Texas Tech University, John E. Baron, December 2016 Chapter 1 Introduction One of the most influential ways that Argentines have sought to deal with the memory of the horrors of the twentieth century is through artistic mediums. The few examples in literature and film that presented the events and results of the Dirty War in the 1980‟s and early „90‟s such as: Artificial Respiration (Respiración artificial) by Ricardo Piglia while in exile in Spain in 1980, The Official Story (La historia oficial) (1985) directed by Luís Puenzo, and Night of the Pencils (La noche de los lápices) (1986) directed by Héctor Olivera, helped to keep the past from being erased completely in the minds of Argentines, but until the conditions in the present reawakened the memory of the past en masse a majority of Argentines chose to avoid the subject rather than deal with their own memories and roles in those events. This reawakening led to a resurgence in literature and film that dealt with the horrors of the past. María del Cármen Castañeda Hernández views memory as an abstract that materializes in literature and other art forms and thereafter becomes part of the collective cultural memory. This idea helps to understand the important role of novels and films in the revival of cultural memory in Argentina and serves as a basis for the focus of this dissertation. Also important in this discussion is the rise in the regional and individual nature of the films of the New Argentine Cinema movement. By centering on individual, local, and regional problems and then relating them to the global society, they have brought individuals back into the discussion of memory and in so doing have contributed 1 Texas Tech University, John E. Baron, December 2016 to the discussion of the past and the restoration of that past to the collective cultural memory (Amado 18-19). The novels and films presented in this dissertation are examples of the ever growing list of filmmakers and novelists that have embraced the past in an effort to portray and understand it within the culture that allowed it to happen at the time, ignored it for years after in an attempt to move beyond its horrors,

LAToRE* Abstract: The military regimes of the countries of the Southern Cone of South America cooperated under Operation Condor to eradicate all political opposition throughout the 1960s and 1970s. The military leaders of these regimes are only now being brought to justice for their crimes, which include widespread killing and "disappearances" of political opponents and, in Argentina, the stealing of babies born to doomed political dissidents. It is only in the last decade that these crimes have been brought to light so that the perpetrators can be brought to justice and nations deeply wounded can begin to heal.

    Unit 3 The Repressed and the Repressors Introduction First we will kill all of the subversives; then…we will kill all of their sympathizers; then…those who remain undecided, and finally we will kill the indifferent ones. ~General Ibérico Saint-Jean, May 26, 1977 This quote by General Ibérico Saint-Jean attests to the clear and horrific plan of the junta’s Process of National Reorganization (El Proceso) to eliminate anyone considered an enemy of the state. In contrast to Saint-Jean’s clarity, the Argentines were left to wonder why people were arrested or disappeared. The media was not a reliable source of truthful information and people lived in fear of the government as well as their neighbors. In Unit 3, students will learn more about life in Argentina during this Dirty War from exiled writer Eduardo Galeano. They will learn about human rights organizations, and role-play a meeting with the OAS, government officials and prisoners. Essential Questions Lessons I-III • How does literature help us understand the human spirit? • How do writers express their most important sociopolitical views? • How does a writer’s style impact our understanding of sociopolitical events? • How can literature inspire social change? • How can we use databases to access information? • What is the role of human rights organizations? • How do human rights organizations engender change?

We used multilingual topic modeling to examine language-specific bias in the English, Spanish, and Russian versions of Wikipedia. In particular, we placed Spanish articles discussing the Cold War on a Russian-English viewpoint spectrum based on similarity in topic distribution. We then crowdsourced human annotations of Spanish Wikipedia articles for comparison to the topic model. Our hypothesis was that human annotators and topic modeling algorithms would provide correlated results for bias. However, that was not the case. Our annotators indicated that humans were more perceptive of sentiment in article text than topic distribution, which suggests that our classifier provides a different perspective on a text’s bias.

  • Nuevo Cine Argentino De Rapado a Historias Extraordinarias Veinticinco Años, Veinticinco Libros
    Nuevo Cine Argentino De Rapado a Historias extraordinarias Veinticinco años, veinticinco libros El ciclo político inaugurado en Argentina a fines de 1983 se abrió bajo el auspicio de generosas promesas de justicia, renovación de la vida pública y ampliación de la ciudadanía, y conoció logros y retrocesos, fortalezas y desmayos, sobresaltos, obstáculos y reveses, en los más diversos planos, a lo largo de todos estos años. Que fue- ron años de fuertes transformaciones de los esquemas productivos y de la estructura social, de importantes cambios en la vida pública y privada, de desarrollo de nuevas formas de la vida colectiva, de actividad cultural y de consumo y también de expansión, hasta ni- veles nunca antes conocidos en nuestra historia, de la pobreza y la miseria. Hoy, veinticinco años después, nos ha parecido interesante el ejercicio de tratar de revisar estos resultados a través de la publica- ción de esta colección de veinticinco libros, escritos por académicos dedicados al estudio de diversos planos de la vida social argentina para un público amplio y no necesariamente experto. La misma tiene la pretensión de contribuir al conocimiento general de estos procesos y a la necesaria discusión colectiva sobre estos problemas. De este modo, dos instituciones públicas argentinas, la Biblioteca Nacional y la Universidad Nacional de General Sarmiento, a través de su Instituto del Desarrollo Humano, cumplen, nos parece, con su deber de contribuir con el fortalecimiento de los resortes cognos- citivos y conceptuales, argumentativos y polémicos, de la democra- cia conquistada hace un cuarto de siglo, y de la que los infortunios y los problemas de cada día nos revelan los déficits y los desafíos.

    THE LINGUISTIC EXPERIENCE OF ITALIANS IN BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA, 1890-1914: LANGUAGE SHIFT AS SEEN THROUGH SOCIAL SPACES ________________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ________________________________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________________ by Maria Italiano-McGreevy January 2013 Examining Committee Members: Augusto Lorenzino, Dissertation Advisor, Spanish and Portuguese Jonathan Holmquist, Examination Committee Chair, Spanish and Portuguese Paul Toth, Internal Reader, Spanish and Portuguese Gabriella Romani, External Reader, Italian Studies, Seton Hall University ! ABSTRACT From 1890-1914, Argentina received a large influx of Italian immigrants who wanted to “hacer la América”, or live the American dream of economic prosperity. With Italian immigrants representing nearly half of all immigrants entering Argentina, the government strived to create a new sense of Argentine pride and nationalism. The objective of this dissertation is to investigate and analyze the linguistic experience of Italian immigrants in Buenos Aires, Argentina, applying Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of social space and linguistic markets, and contact language theories to explain the attrition and shift of the Italian language. This study identifies three relevant social spaces that contributed to the linguistic experience of Italian immigrants in Buenos Aires: 1). conventillos or immigrant housing 2.) school community, and 3.) mutual aid societies. Within each social space thrived a linguistic market which language played a key role in the way people interacted and identified with each other. First, the conventillos were part of an alternative linguistic market in which cocoliche, a transitional language, thrived as a way for Italians to communicate with immigrants from different countries.
