Where's my home? : a reading of Sandra Cisnero's The House on Mango Street

Veras, Adriane Ferreira January 2008 (has links)
Essa dissertação consiste de uma leitura crítica do romance The House on Mango Street da autora Chicana Sandra Cisneros. O foco da minha leitura recai sobre Esperanza, a narradora do romance, e sua busca por um lar como representativo de sua necessidade de autoafirmação e desenvolvimento de sua identidade. Essa monografia analisa a questão identitária de um sujeito culturalmente híbrido e analisa ainda vários aspectos da narrativa, como a língua, o desejo que leva a tal narrativa e a questão de gênero. O uso das duas línguas, Espanhol e Inglês, é também marca dessa cultura híbrida. As representações femininas também são analisadas no romance. As figuras do imaginário mexicano influenciam e marcam o perfil das mulheres Mexicanas e Chicanas que aparecem na obra. O romance pode ser considerado como representativo de um discurso Chicano, no qual podemos acompanhar Esperanza em sua trajetória de crescimento em direção à vida adulta. O aporte teórico utilizado compreende autores que investigam questões identitárias, como Stuart Hall e Homi Bhabha, de gênero, como Cherríe Moraga e Gloria Anzaldúa e questões relativas aos mitos representativos do feminino no imaginário mexicano, através da análise de Octavio Paz. / This dissertation consists of a critical reading of the novel The House on Mango Street by Chicana author, Sandra Cisneros. The focus of my reading is on the narrator, Esperanza, and her quest for a home as emblematic of her need of self-assertion and the development of her identity. This study analyses identity issues of a culturally hybrid individual, and also several features of the narrative, such as the language, the desire that thrusts this same narrative, and gender issues. The use of the two languages, Spanish and English, is also a characteristic o this hybrid culture. The female representations are also analyzed in the romance. The female figures in the Mexican imaginary influence and mold the profile of the Mexican and Chicana women that are depicted in the novel. The novel can be considered as a representative of a literary Chicano discourse, in which we can follow Esperanza in her growth journey towards adulthood. The theoretical assumptions used in the analyses comprehend scholars who investigate identity issues, such as Stuart Hall and Homi Bhabha, gender, such as Cherríe Moraga and Gloria Anzaldúa, and the representation of women under the scope Octavio Paz’s studies of Mexican myths that portray female models.

Whose house is it anyway? : architects of the 'house' leitmotif in the literature from Mexican America / Architects of the 'house' leitmotif in the literature from Mexican America

Rodríguez, Rodrigo Joseph 03 February 2012 (has links)
The literature written and being spoken by writers of Mexican origin in the United States continues to reformulate the notion of borders as well as subjects and forms within and beyond the house leitmotif. Writings by Sandra Cisneros, Pat Mora, and Tomás Rivera construct public and private spaces that merit validation in historical, literary, and cultural contexts. As architects, Chicana and Chicano writers challenge the nationalist canon and house. / text

Memória e Memórias: entre o eu da ficção e a ficcionalização do eu

Na ponta sociológica, Maurice Halbwachs, por meio do que ele chama de “quadros sociais vivos do presente”, irá construir a sua teoria da memória coletiva. Relacionando essa memória aos conceitos de memória individual, memória histórica, espaço e tempo, o sociólogo desconstruirá ou reconstruirá alguns conceitos fundamentais da filosofia idealista vigente em sua época. A criação literária, reconhecida pioneira na análise dos fatos humanos, estabelecer-se-á como um campo fértil nos estudos da memória. Entendendo a importância e a relevância do estudo e a ampliação de todos os conceitos em torno dessa temática, este trabalho analisa a representação da memória nas literaturas moderna e contemporânea, partindo da ideia de que, em uma representação de memória construída pelo eu, seja essa representação fictícia ou ficcionalizada, sempre há a presença da sociedade por meio de quadros sociais. Como respaldo teórico, valemo-nos da teoria da memória coletiva e outros escritos relativos à memória que complementam o ponto-de-vista adotado. Para tanto, trabalhamos com as narrativas: Memórias de Lázaro (1952), do baiano Adonias Filho; The House on Mango Street (1984), da norte-americana de origem familiar e cultural mexicana, Sandra Cisneros; e No Fio da Vida: uma Odisséia Açor-Americana (Autobiografia) (2013), do açoriano e professor residente dos Estados Unidos, Francisco Cota Fagundes. Identificando e analisando os quadros de representação da memória dessas narrativas e articulando estes aos elementos da arte da ficção assinalados e trabalhados por Umberto Eco e por James Wood / The memory's theories that form the current scenario about the memory theme are composed by concepts in which areas of thinking are studied from the following extreme points: from platonic idealism to sociology based on social frameworks. Taking into account the sociology viewpoint, Maurice Halbwachs will be the basis of sociological studies due to his theory of collective memory through something that he named of 'social alive pictures from present'. Linking this kind of memory with concepts of individual memory, historical memory, space and time, the French sociologist is designated 'to destroy and rebuild' some fundamental concepts of current idealistic philosophy of his time. The literary creation (a kind of recognized pioneer in analyzing human facts) will be established itself as a good space of memory's study and the Marcel Proust's work will be one of the 'addresses' more visited by researchers of a variety of areas. Thus, considering the importance and the relevance of the study and the increase of all concepts around this subject, this project aims to analyze the representation of memory in modern and contemporary literature, defending the hypothesis that in a representation of memory built by an 'I', we will always find the presence of society through social frameworks. As theoretical base, this project will have the collective memory theory and other works related to the memory that will complement the point of view taken. In order to do this, we identified and analized the memory's representation framework of some narratives: Memórias de Lázaro (1952), written by Adonias Filho; The House on Mango Street (1984), written by Sandra Ciseros, an American but also Mexican descendent; and No Fio da Vida: uma Odisséia Açor - Americana (Autobiografia) (2013), written by Francisco Cota Fagundes, an Azorean and university professor who lives in USA. Identifying and analyzing the narratives’ frameworks representation memory and ...
