2018 Outstanding Academic Title, given by CHOICE Magazine
Introduces key terms, concepts, debates, and histories for Latinx Studies
Keywords for Latina/o Studies is a generative text that enhances the ongoing dialogue within a rapidly growing and changing field. The keywords included in this collection represent established and emergent terms, categories, and concepts that undergird Latina/o studies; they delineate the shifting contours of a field best thought of as an intellectual imaginary and experiential project of social and cultural identities within the US academy.
Bringing together 63 essays, from humanists, historians, anthropologists, sociologists, among others, each focused on a single term, the volume reveals the broad range of the field while also illuminating the tensions and contestations surrounding issues of language, politics, and histories of colonization, specific to this area of study. From “borderlands” to “migration,” from “citizenship” to “mestizaje,” this accessible volume will be informative for those who are new to Latina/o studies, providing them with a mapping of the current debates and a trajectory of the development of the field, as well as being a valuable resource for scholars to expand their knowledge and critical engagement with the dynamic transformations in the field.

Описание:

Ireland's An Gorta M r (The Great Hunger), beginning in the year of 1845, is well chronicled in history books, as is the centuries-old persecutions upon the Green Isle.

The story A Lifetime or Two is a heartwarming peek into the lives of Maddie and Finn, who are trying to survive in the year following 1845. During this time, the potato blight and ensuing crop failure ravaged the country and resulted in thousands of Irish countrymen dying of starvation and disease.

Maddie, an old woman of seventy-seven and in ill health, constantly prays her beads and trusts in the Divine that Finn, sixteen, will come to see that he must leave his homeland and go to America. Maddie fears that Finn will succumb to the great hunger plaguing the poorest of the Irish, whose sole means of sustenance is the potato, if he stays in Ireland. Finn valiantly defends his position to remain with her, as Maddie cannot travel with him, and he fears for her ability to care for herself.

The story traces the events of Finn and Maddie and all those who impact their lives in meaningful ways, leaving a timeless legacy traveling down through the ages to another generation. A Lifetime or Two is as revelatory today as it was in the year 1846.
