The city is not only built of towers of steel and glass; it is a product of culture. It plays an especially important role in Latin America, where urban areas hold a near-monopoly on resources and are home to an expanding population. The essays in this collection assert that women's views of the city are unique and revealing. For the first time, Unfolding the City addresses issues of gender and the urban in literature—particularly lesser-known works of literature—written by Latin American women from Mexico City, Santiago, and Buenos Aires. The contributors propose new mappings of urban space; interpret race and class dynamics; and describe Latin American urban centers in the context of globalization.Contributors: Debra A.

Punto y aparte is a brief intermediate text that uniquely expands on the lessons learned in first-year Spanish to focus on seven core communicative functions and the grammar and vocabulary that support them. These functions are constantly recycled throughout the program to reflect the real-life use of language. Grammar review is found at the back of the program, reserving the main chapters for presenting engaging real-world uses of language and richly enhanced cultural contexts. In six chapters—each set in a different area of the Spanish-speaking world—Punto y aparte offers meaningful communicative practice through writing and speaking activities that help students progress from the basics of introductory-level language to more extensive, meaningful discourse, and from sentence-level to paragraph-length self-expression.

Five contemporary plays from Peru spotlighting cultural and linguistic diversityGrupo Cultural Yuyachkani began in 97 as a collective of activist-artists determined to change Peruvian society through the power of theater. Its unique vision aims to represent the multilingual, multiethnic, and multicultural diversity of Peru for a wide range of audiences—in small highland towns in the capital, Lima and on international stages—and has earned the group its well-deserved reputation as one of Peru's premier cultural institutions. Much of Yuyachkani's work is dedicated to human rights and social justice issues that affect marginalized, rural, Indigenous-mestizo communities and urban populations in Peru. The plays in this anthology, in which characters speak in both Spanish and Quechua, emphasize the significance of Andean-Indigenous cultures in the national discourse and the effects of revolutionary movements and violence on the Peruvian nation.This volume contains discussion of José Carlos Mariátegui, José Matos Mar, Alberto Flores Galindo, Rodrigo Montoya, Peter Elmore, Yma Súmac, Pedro Huilca, José María Arguedas, Miguel Rubio, and María Jesús Alvarado.

Andean Truths: Transitional Justice, Ethnicity, and Cultural Production in Post-Shining Path Peru studies how literature, drama, film, and the visual arts contest the dominant narrative of national peace and reconciliation, as constructed by Peru’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Established in 2001, the Commission aimed to ‘investigate and make public the truth’ of the country’s twenty-year civil war, drawing upon homologous predecessors that provided a highly scripted model of truth-gathering and national healing. In this model, a predetermined collective mourning, catharsis, and reconciliation would move the nation forward in a consensually-determined fashion. Andean Truths shows that the Peruvian case proves internationally-endorsed models insufficient for arriving at the ‘truth’ of a national trauma that primarily affected disenfranchised ethnic groups, namely, the Andean Quechua speaking populations that accounted for the overwhelming majority of victims of the violence. Even as scholars recognize the importance of bringing multiple voices to the table in discussing post-Shining Path Peru, we are still trying to understand what a more Andean-oriented transitional justice process might entail. Drawing on theories of decoloniality, intercultural communication and epistemological diversity (following scholars such as Enrique Dussel, Aníbal Quijano and Boaventura de Sousa Santos), Lambright analyzes cultural products, from the theater of Yuyachkani to the narrative of Oscar Colchado Lucio, the art of Edilberto Jiménez, and other popular artistic responses, that highlight Andean understandings of the conflict and its aftermath. These cultural products challenge dominant understandings of the conflict and question Peru’s ability to overcome its collective trauma without seriously reconsidering prevailing cultural paradigms.Andean Truths was awarded the 2015 Modern Language Association’s Katherine Singer Kovacs Prize for Outstanding Book on Latin America or Spain.
