Buenas Noches, American Culture: Latina/o Aesthetics of Nighti by María DeGuzmán(DeGuzman)
Requirements: .PDF reader, 755 KB
Overview: Often treated like night itself―both visible and invisible, feared and romanticized―Latina/os make up the largest minority group in the US. In her newest work, María DeGuzmán explores representations of night in art and literature from the Caribbean, Colombia, Central and South America, and the US, calling into question night’s effect on the formation of identity for Latina/os in and outside of the US. She takes as her subject novels, short stories, poetry, essays, non-fiction, photo-fictions, photography, and film, and examines these texts through the lenses of nationhood, sexuality, human rights, exoticism, among others.
