There is a great 2004 article on Y tu mamá también by this title. Now, it’s available on JSTOR. It’s in a great issue of South Central Review on memory and nation in contemporary Mexico, now available in Project Muse. I could study this article and then build a course around all the films it … More Transnational cinema and the Mexican state
That is a chapter title in Sandy Petrey, Speech Acts and Literary Theory, a photocopied book I am recycling, and that I would like to study again. But it can be bought now, again, as a book, not a pile of paper. Petrey talks about the referent as something real. “The continental masters of doubt … More The Prose of the World
This is another valuable, photocopied book that I am recycling. And there are things in it like photographs of the cover of first edition of Rusia en 1931. Reflexiones al pie del Kremlin, marvelously ’30s, and a Soviet postcard to Orrego. I will keep some of these things. There are also all of Orrego’s journalistic … More Antenor Orrego, Mi encuentro con César Vallejo
Another photocopied book hits the recycling bin and I haven’t even checked to see in what e-format it is available, I’m sure it is and I think, somewhere, I actually have it as a book now. I have to get rid of more books, too, so as to KNOW for sure what I have as … More Transculturación narrativa en América Latina
Here is the Jean Franco article. It is in another photocopied book I recycled, and that is good, and that was part of my identity, and that I should reread. The object itself was hard to let go, but the text is available, as you can see. Axé.
There is wonderful information in this book but I don’t want to read a photocopy and I am too traumatized by the author to read it, anyway. It is not that easy to get, but they have it at Tulane and one could go and read at it there. Also, I think seeing it online, … More Las escuelas argentinas de vanguardia
This is an important book and I photocopied it long ago, because I had that paper on soap operas (that I’d still like to do something with). I never read it, and now I’ve decided to recycle it since it’s available as a Real Book, which I prefer. I’m depressed and I have been so … More Sarlo: el imperio de los sentimientos
I was going to recycle this clean and complete photocopy but there isn’t a good online edition and the book isn’t easily available elsewhere. I love the author, Roberto Schwarz. I did not realize the title comes form a Kafka story, or that Diderot has a play by this title (that I should read). In … More O pai de família e outros estudos
We have to get this book. I discovered it by procrastinating while trying to think about Bernal Díaz del Castillo, and it does have directly to do with Cortés, even though I did not find it through a search on him but while avoiding doing one. It’s synchronicity, serendipitous. I discovered it via this article. … More On Savage Shores
Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks are something I actually want to read. They fit my projects, too, but that is secondary. I’ve had a very interesting adventure with this book. I discovered a photocopy of part of it, made when it was new, in connection with an article on television and traditional narrative I should have finished. … More Prison Notebooks, and Michael Roemer
