Beskrivning
The Ties That Bind comprises the first collection of critical essays that explore the family system in Spanish and Latin American culture. This thought-provoking volume addresses the intersection of language, narrative structure, social reality, and family dynamics through examples from a diverse range of literary works, including Cervantes' Don Quijote, Reinaldo Arenas' Celestino antes del alba, and the Chicano film My Family/Mi Familia. Issues of feminism, gender and sexuality, abuse, trauma, and communication take the forefront in this ground-breaking book, which takes psychological literary criticism a step beyond traditional psychoanalytical approaches.

Recensioner i media
....Cooper's singular contribution is her application of psychological theory to literary analysis, freeing it from the tendency to norm concepts pertaining to family and inviting rereadings of literary and filmic family plots. The works studied range from Don Quixote to Sara Levi Calderón's Dos mujeres and to films. Summing Up: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.
