Abstract

Este volumen recoge los trabajos del equipo de investigación interuniversitario MEDET LAT (mediación editorial, difusión y recepción de la literatura Latinoamericana en Francia). El objetivo principal de este equipo es estudiar, desde un punto de vista literario, histórico e intercultural, la contribución de los editores, traductores y críticos literarios franceses a la circulación internacional y al reconocimiento global de la literatura latinoamericana en la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Se reúnen así en el volumen una primera serie de estudios sobre la fortuna francesa de las obras de Gabriela Mistral (Stéphanie Decante), César Vallejo (Ina Salazar & Laurence Breysse-Chanet), Joao Guimaraes Rosa (Michel Riaudel & Marcia Aguiar), Gabriel García Márquez (Liset Bergeron), Ricardo Güiraldes, José Eustasio Rivera y Rómulo Gallegos (Florence Olivier), Manuel Puig (Gersende Camenen) y José Lezama Lima (Gustavo Guerrero), a los que se suman trabajos sobre dos grandes editores y traductores franceses de literatura latinoamericana: Roger Caillois (Annick Louis) y Paul Vedevoye (Roland Béhar). Un innovador estudio de las perspectivas de desarrollo de este campo de trabajo en las Humanidades Digitales (Roberto Parejas) completa el volumen.

Abstract

The inclusion of works in a canonical list creates a large body of exclusions. But among these neglected works there are not a few that nevertheless are worth reading. Literary worth is not necessarily aesthetic impeccability. A literary work recommends itself by a high degree of artistic achievement with elbowroom for historical importance. The present study focuses on Leo Rosten's immigration novel The Education of Hyman Kaplan (1937) and Archibald MacLeish's radio play Air Raid (1938). The first is more than the apparent compendium of language-based jokes. Read in the context of immigration policy from Presidents Theodore Roosevelt to F.D. Roosevelt and of Jewish-American humor, it displays Kaplan's moral and intellectual growth, which extant commentary denies, and exhibits the "interior internationality" of an immigration country. Air Raid is one of the few achieved American radio plays to take a stand on foreign affairs in a context that does not only consist of broadcasting and Picasso's collage-painting Guernica "the screaming picture" which MacLeish transposed into the acoustic medium but also of the historical saturation bombing of the Basque town.

Abstract

Tenth annual winner of the May Swenson Poetry Award, Haywire is a well-polished collection from a highly accomplished poet. With humor, compassion, and an unflinching eye, Bilgere explores the human condition in accessible lines and a magician's way with language. In images bright and dark, tangible and immanent, Bilgere brings us time after time to the inner reaches of a contemporary life. In subjects ranging from adolescent agony to the loss of parents to the comic pain of middle age, he finds no reason to turn away his gaze, and ultimately no reason not to define himself in joy. May Swenson Poetry Award Volume 10, with foreword by Edward Field. "This poet, you knew from his very first lines, didn't fall for anything phony—his own language is irresistibly no-bullshit down to earth, even sassy.... Coming from one of the ethnic, industrial cities, his work has a gritty element. He recalls all the sorrows of a life—the drunken father, the parents' divorce, his mother's death, his unremitting horniness, his own divorce—nothing special, just what we all have to deal with one way or another. And yet he ends on an almost contented note. Haywire is remarkable for being an essentially happy book, though with an ironic eye cast on such happiness while children are starving. And when he arrives at this, we're glad for him. Here, I felt, was an irresistible, not-so-easy, engaging humanness. Bilgere is a damn good poet." —Edward Field, Judge of the 2006 Swenson Award

Abstract

Neck of the World is the eleventh volume in the prestigious May Swenson Poetry Award series. In it, Daniel Rzicznek offers poems that, in quick angular language, capture the natural world and at the same time extend it into a surreal vision, sometimes dream-like, sometimes dark. Alice Quinn, judge for the 2007 Swenson Award, says this of Rzicznek's work: "Throughout, the language pulsates, always vigorous, by turns knotty and crystalline. . . . In Neck of the World, we have a poet with a striking new vision--challenging, rewarding, and bold.""
