La respuesta de Rómulo Gallegos

Doña Bárbara is a novel by Venezuelan author Rómulo Gallegos, first published in 1929.[1] It was described in 1974 as "possibly the most widely known Latin American novel".[2] This regionalist novel deals with the confrontation between civilization and the barbaric aspects of the rural environment and its inhabitants. It is written in the third person and mixes vernacular language and regionalisms with literary narrative, making the main conflict more obvious and at the same time more tangible. This novel is considered a masterpiece of Venezuelan literature and a classic in Latin American literature. It establishes a psychological study of the people of the Venezuelan plains:[3] victims of unfortunate situations, but at the same time strong and courageous.

El Periquillo Sarniento

Fernández de Lizardi, José Joaquín, El Periquillo Sarniento, Segunda edición corregida y ampliada, (Prólogo de Jefferson Rea Spell) Argentina & México: Editorial Porrua, 1959.

The Mangy Parrot: The Life and Times of Periquillo Sarniento Written by himself for his Children (Spanish: El Periquillo Sarniento) by Mexican author José Joaquín Fernández de Lizardi, is generally considered the first novel written and published in Latin America. El Periquillo was written in 1816, though due to government censorship the last of four volumes were not published until 1831. The novel has been continuously in print in more than twenty editions since then. El Periquillo Sarniento can be read as a nation-building novel, written at a critical moment in the transition of Mexico (and Latin America) from colony to independence. Jean Franco has characterized the novel as "a ferocious indictment of Spanish administration in Mexico: ignorance, superstition and corruption are seen to be its most notable characteristics" [Jean Franco, An Introduction to Spanish-American Literature (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1969), p. 34; cited in Benedict Anderson, Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Nationalism, revised edition (London: Verso, 1991), p. 29].

Lekete Minawa: Cantica Dje Dushi Tempu Bieuw

Brenneker, Paul, Lekete Minawa: Cantica Dje Dushi Tempu Bieuw, Curaçao, 1958.

Brenneker Paul, an enthusiastic Catholic priest of the Order of Dominicans, born on May 7, 1912 in Limburg, left at his death on February 7, 1996, a great cultural legacy: hundred publications, prints, photographs, poems, a large collection of audio recordings of singing and stories and thousands of artifacts, which he and his friend Elis Juliana from the fifties collected in Curaçao, Bonaire, Aruba, St. Maarten, St. Eustatius and Saba. Through publications as Lekete Minawa (1958) Benta - old songs-(1959), Curaçaoensia - ethnological notes on Curacao (1961), Brua (1966), and the ten parts Sambumbu (1969-1975) gives us access to direct sources for further research. To develop Guene example as a forerunner of Papiamentu, to folk religion and opposition to slavery. Or to gain inspiration for artistic work, such as musicians Angel Salsbach, Etzel Provence in the sixties, followed by Ronchi Matthew to Izaline Calister for job especially jazz. Brenneker combined his love for the local culture with charity.

De kleur van mijn eiland: Geschiedschrijving:

Thus, in the early sixties subscription to Dutch book weeks space was reclaimed for Papiamentu literature by the then head of the Public Library, Daphne Labega. Pierre Lauffer, Elis Juliana, Hubert Booi and Tharcisio Pieters Kweirs are thus given the opportunity to reach an audience, which consists mainly of the establishment and from passers-by, or of their children to the schools that the authors visit such as the Marnix MULO and the Peter Stuyvesant College.

Literature of the Netherlands Antilles

Debrot, Cola, Literature of the Netherlands Antilles, Netherlands Antilles: Departement van Cultuur en Opvoeding van de Nederlandse Antillen, 1964. [2 copies]

Cola (Nicolaas) Debrot (4 May 1902, Kralendijk - 3 December 1981, Amsterdam) was a writer, lawyer, medical doctor and politician. (…)His debut Mijn zuster de negerin (1935) is best-known. In the late 1940s, he returned to the Antilles and lived on Curaçao, where he laid the foundations of Dutch-Antillian literature. Cola Debrot has also been active as a politician. From 1962 to 1970, he was the Governor of the Netherlands Antilles, the first to be born on one of the islands.

From the Summary:

This survey is not meant to give a complete picture of the oral and the written literature of the Netherlands Antilles. The folk literature, which is also designated as oral literature or folklore, is not treated here for itself, but in order to attain a better insight in the development of the art of literature during the last hundred years in the Netherlands Antilles.

Carta del Reino Neerlandés (Documento)

Carta del Reino Neerlandés, Gestos del Gabinete del Vice-Presidente del Consejo de Ministrof, Plein I, La Haya, Holanda, s.f.

Del Memorando Explicativo:

La descripción detallada del proceso histórico de las relaciones entre los Países Bajos, Surinam y las Antillas Neerlandesas está fuera del alcance de este memorándum. (…) Las delegaciones de los Países Bajos, Surinam y las Antillas Neerlandesas estuvieron negociando en La Haya un nuevo orden constitucional. Dichas negociaciones se interrumpieron en 1952 y se volvieron a reanudar en 1954, año en que se llegó a un acuerdo completo sobre un texto definitivo, que se ha incluído en la Carta del Reino Neerlandés. Como se comunicó a la Asamblea General en su noveno periodo de sesiones, los Parlamentos de los tres países aceptaron la Carta por mayorías superiores a las necesarias en virtud de las disposiciones constitucionales pertinentes. Por último, la Carta fue sancionada por Su Majestad la Reina Juliana el 15 de diciembre de 1954, y entró en vigor al promulgarse el 29 de diciembre de 1954.

Discours sur le Colonialisme

Césaire, Aimé, Discours sur le colonialisme, sixième édition, Paris: Éditions Présence Africaine, 1955.

Discours sur le colonialism (Discourse on Colonialism) is a text written by Aimé Césaire and published in 1955. It is a key text of postcolonial literature.[1] Césaire’s Discourse on Colonialism has been labeled “a declaration of war.”[1] It is a work focused on decolonization that is remembered for “its impact on the colonized, on culture, on history, on the very concept of civilization itself, and most importantly, on the colonizer.”[1] Césaire writes his book in a poetic style, discussing the negative effects of colonization on colonies. He uses this poetic prose style as, “a method of achieving clairvoyance, of obtaining the knowledge we need to move forward.”[1] His unique style of writing sets him apart from other postcolonial academics who published works alongside him at the same time. In Discourse on Colonialism, Césaire implicates the Europeans for constructing the negative relationship between colonizer and colonized. He criticizes Europe for constructing these colonies only to exploit them for their own benefit.

Slavery: A Problem in American Institutional and Intellectual Life

Elkins, Samuel M., Slavery: A Problem in American Institutional and Intellectual Life, Third Edition, Revised, Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1976.

Slavery : A Problem in American Institutional and Intellectual Life (1959), based on Elkin's doctoral dissertation at Columbia University, was theoretically innovative and enormously influential in the years after its publication, although its arguments are largely rejected today.

From the Preface to the third edition:

The original edition of this work has not been altered here, in that its text remains as it was when it was first published in 1959. But two new parts have been added to the original four, thus extending the text by some forty percent, in recognition that the subject itself has grown immensely during the intervening years. A word or two on these additions may be called for. By the late 1960’s a substantial body of critical commentary on my book had accumulated, and Professor Ann J. Lane undertook at that time to assemble some leading examples of it in a collection to which she invited me to contribute. I did so, and the resulting volume, under her editorship, was published in 1971 as The Debate over Slavery: Stanley Elkins and his Critics by the University of Illinois Press. The essay I prepared for that occasion, “Slavery and Ideology,” reappears as Part V of the present edition.

Sobre las Revoluciones Parciales del Tercer Mundo

Delaprez, Gérard, Roger Genoud, Maxime Rodinson, Sobre las revoluciones parciales del Tercer Mundo , Barcelona: Anagrama, 1974.

Gérard Delaprez - Para leer a Roger Genoud (extracto):

El texto de Roger Genoud que leerá a continuación nos parece significativo de la evolución actual del pensamiento político y social en Occidente. Es obra de un economista que se formó en una época en que el marxismo, y más concretamente el stalinismo clásico, constituía el principal objeto de las discusiones relativas a la transformación de la sociedad; y que siguió con gran interés el renacimiento de las diferentes corrientes de inspiración anarquista, así como la eclosión del movimiento antiproductivista. O sea, que esta escrito en un tono apasionado – el autor ha retenido de esas diversas teorías, tan profundamente opuestas, lo que le parecía susceptible de explicar la evolución del mundo actual – y quizá resulta un poco oscuro, puesto que la multiplicidad de los temas y la complejidad de sus relaciones llevaban al autor a multiplicar las perspectivas.
