Information
Treating with such prominent authors as Gloria Anzaldúa, Ana Castillo, Lucha Corpi, Miguel Méndez, John Rechy, the essays in this collection focus upon the potentiality of Chicano transnational, transcultural, and cross-linguistic literature and. creativity. They outline the making of a poetics of liminality and aesthetic transgression which issues from a contact zone, a "glocal" discursive space where the intermingling of the global and the local gives rise to new rhetorical forms and structures. Timely and wide-ranging, this book explores fiction, autobiography, musical culture, and to-ponimy, and includes an essay on Leslie Marmon Silko, also of Mexican heritage, who would erase the "border" between Indian and mestizo identities. The result is an impressive range of scholarship, chiefly from European scholars who analyze the topics from their various standpoints, which may be more detached and objective than those held by critics deeply immersed in the American political and ideological milieu. The general venues of theoretical and critical investigation that this collection of essays opens up set the basis for a comparative approach to other spaces of transnational territoriality and citizenship, particularly the Europe of the third millennium.
