Inequality and Difference in Hispanic and Latin American Cultures: Critical Theoretical Approaches

"Distinguished critics from the realms of sociology, politics, cultural studies, women's writing, literature, translation and critical theory focus attention on Judaeo-Hispanic, Portuguese, Afro-Caribbean, Andean, Brazilian, and other cultural texts, in an attempt to locate the inequalities and the differences involved in the making of cultural labels." "These essays present a balance of theory and practice, of literary and cultural criticism, of gender, race, aesthetic, colonial and political issues." -- Introduction / Bernard McGuirk and Mark I Millington; Equality and Metaphors and Policies / Francisco Delich; Foucault's Fourth Rule / Adam Sharman; The Condition of Exile in Twelfth-Century Judaic Poetics / Sultana Wahnon; Women under Franco and The Discrepancy between Discourse and Reality / Olga Kenyon; Moix and Telling It Like It Isn't / Anny Brooksbank Jones; The Three Marias on Their Inequality/Praxis in Novas Cartas Portuguesas / Hilary Owen; Writing the African The Work of Two Cuban Women Poets / Catherine Davies; Can the Machiguenga Speak?
