Colonial Latin American Literature: A Very Short Introduction , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 270min
A vivid account of the literary culture of the Spanish-speaking Americas from the time of Columbus to Latin American Independence, this Very Short Introduction explores the origins of Latin American literature in Spanish and tells the story of how Spanish literary language developed and flourished in the New World. A leading scholar of colonial Latin American literature, Rolena Adorno examines the writings that debated the justice of the Spanish conquests, described the novelties of New World nature, expressed the creativity of Hispanic baroque culture in epic, lyric, and satirical poetry, and anticipated Latin American Independence. The works of Spanish, creole, and Amerindian authors highlighted here, including Bartolomé de las Casas, Felipe Guaman Poma, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, and Andrés Bello, have been chosen for the merits of their writings, their participation in the larger literary and cultural debates of their times, and their resonance among readers today. ungekürzt.

Sheloquins Vermächtnis
Staff Sergeant Ben Clifford der RCMP ist nicht gerade erfreut, als in seinem Distrikt ein Mord geschieht - und das ausgerechnet vier Wochen vor seiner Pensionierung. Dabei ist Hope, die kleine, verträumte Stadt in British Columbia, der wahrscheinlich friedlichste Flecken auf der Landkarte. Clifford hofft auf die Hilfe des Eingeborenen Cody White Crow. Niemand ahnt, dass auch dieser in großer Gefahr schwebt. Killer jagen ihn, als er seinem Bruder das Land des alten Sheloquin zeigt. Sein Leben verdankt Cody schließlich Montaya Sunroad, einer Squamish Indianerinund seinem treuen Wolfshund Mellow. Doch ein Mörder läuft noch immer frei herum. Seltsame Dinge geschehen, die immer mehr Fragen aufwerfen. Selbst der Staff Sergeant verstrickt sich tief in das gefährliche Netz aus Lügen und Verrat.Zitat: "Die Autorin präsentiert spannende Abenteuer mit starken Charakteren um die Natives im modernen Amerika des 21. Jhd., die Hillermans Ethnokrimis in nichts nachstehen." (Amerindian Research)- Shop: buecher

The Shame and the Sorrow: Dutch-Amerindian Encounters in New Netherland (Early American Studies) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 740min
The Dutch, through the directors of the West India Company, purchased Manhattan Island in 1625. They had come to the New World as traders, not expecting to assume responsibility as the sovereign possessor of a conquered New Netherland. They did not intend to make war on the native peoples around Manhattan Island, but they did; they did not intend to help destroy native cultures, but they did; they intended to be overseas the tolerant, pluralistic, and antimilitaristic people they thought themselves to be - and in so many respects were - at home, but they were not.For the Dutch intruders, establishing a settled presence away from the homeland meant the destabilization of the adventurers' values and self-regard. They found that the initially peaceful encounters with the indigenous people soon took on the alarming overtones of an insurgency as the influx of the Dutch led to a complete upheaval and eventual disintegration of the social and political worlds of the natives.How are the Dutch to be judged? Donna Merwick, in The Shame and the Sorrow, asks this question. She points to a betrayal both of their own values and of the native peoples. She also directs us to the self-delusion of hegemonic control. Her work belongs alongside the best of today's postcolonial studies in the description of cross-cultural violence and subtle questioning of the nature of writing its history.The book is published by University of Pennsylvania Press. ungekürzt.
