The Bartolomé de Las Casas Conference
In a society where urban life recreates otherness, dissolves geographical and social borders, creates transnational spaces and crafts new identities, how do Latinos and Hispanic immigrants of various Latin American regions living in cities in the US (re)build the local and global from inter- and cross-cultural perspectives: language, history, sense of belonging, conflict, territorializing, mobility? This session intends to bring together research from different theoretical and methodological perspectives in the humanities and social sciences on Latino/Hispanic communities in US cities.
This panel investigates the historical processes of the secularization of Spanish American nations and the diverse literary responses, or lack thereof, that such sociopolitical and religious progressions, degenerations, or upheavals prompted.
