Abstract

Los textos aquí reunidos buscan reflexionar acerca de algunas representaciones, discursos y prácticas que construyen el espacio denominado Patagonia. Para ello, los autores parten de marcos teórico-metodológicos diversos y transdisciplinares como los estudios subalternos, la teoría decolonial, las investigaciones de género, la ética ambiental, la geografía cultural y religiosa y el ecofeminismo. Los temas abordados son: la relación entre cultura-naturaleza como reflexión política; religiosidad de migrantes latinoamericanos en San Carlos de Bariloche; producción de territorialidad a partir de la cartografía colonial; desierto y política pública en la Patagonia.

Abstract

Das Ende der Welt, Weite, Wind, riesenhafte Dimensionen und kuriose Gestalten - dies sind verbreitete Topoi hinsichtlich der südlichsten Region des amerikanischen Kontinents. Gleichzeitig haben Patagonien und Feuerland Reisende wie Schriftsteller seit der europäischen ,Entdeckung' durch Ferdinand Magellan fasziniert. Die Region ist Projektionsfläche für vielfältige individuelle wie kollektive Wünsche, Fantasien und Utopien. Auf der Basis postkolonialer Literatur- und Kulturtheorien analysiert die Autorin zeitgenössische Erzähltexte aus Lateinamerika, Europa und den USA in Hinblick auf wiederkehrende Motive und Stereotype. Die Studie untersucht zudem zahlreiche intertextuelle Verflechtungen sowie die kontinuierlichen Verschiebungen zwischen ,Zentrum' und ,Peripherie'. Sichtbar wird, dass der patagonische Raum grundlegend durch die wechselseitigen, transkontinentalen Bewegungsformen zwischen Patagonien und den metropolitanen Zentren gekennzeichnet ist - Kolonisierung, Migration, Flucht, Reisen und Tourismus sind konstitutive Elemente im untersuchten Textkorpus. Den wildromantischen Imaginationen der Abenteurer steht dabei die Erinnerung an die gewaltvolle Siedlungsgeschichte gegenüber. Das Buch wurde 2009 vom Deutschen Romanistenverband mit dem Elise-Richter-Preis ausgezeichnet.

Abstract

The tale of the ill-fated HMS Wager gripped the public's imagination, feeding its taste for dramatic accounts of survival against the odds. Part of George Anson's squadron that had been sent to harass Spanish ships in the Pacific, she was wrecked after rounding Cape Horn in 1741. The majority of the survivors, led by ship's gunner John Bulkeley, mutinied against their irascible and unpredictable captain and chose to make their own way home in what would become one of the most hazardous journeys ever recorded. Their journey took them over 2,000 miles in an open boat through ferocious seas, enduring starvation and extreme privation. Two years after the disaster, the thirty remaining men arrived back in England. Bulkeley and ship's carpenter John Cummins published this account in 1743. Also reissued in this series is the 1768 account of John Byron, who had been midshipman aboard the Wager.

Abstract

The Loss of the Wager is an eighteenth century melodrama set in a ferociously inhospitable climate on one of the world's most remote and dangerous coastlines. The Loss of the Wager is an eighteenth century melodrama set in a ferociously inhospitable climate on one of the world's most remote and dangerous coastlines. When Commodore Anson set out for the Pacific in 1740, to attackthe Spanish ships on the Chilean coast, he took eight ships with him. The Wager was effectively a transport ship, carrying stores and a force of marines; as the squadron rounded Cape Horn in fearsome weather, she was unable to keep up with the rest of them, and with her gear wrecked by the storm, was driven ashore on the Patagonian coast. The tale of mutiny, hardship and tenacity that ensued was told by two of the survivors, John Bulkeley, leader of those who repudiated the captain's authority, and John Byron, then a midshipman, who remained with the captain. Both eventually reached home by different routes, and their dramatic narratives caught the public imagination. Byronwas the grandfather of the poet, Lord Byron, who much admired the book and based the shipwreck scenes in Don Juan on 'my grand-dad's Narrative'. This voyage was the basis for Patrick O'Brian's historical work The Unknown Shore, written before he embarked on the Jack Aubrey novels.

Abstract

Esta obra busca comprender las construcciones de sentidos sociales del espacio denominado Araucanía-Norpatagonia. Y es importante destacar que los sentidos no son unívocos. En este caso, la pluralidad de lo territorial se intuye en las diferentes perspectivas de acercamiento, mostrando tanto la polisemia como las tensiones detrás de conceptos tales como espacio, frontera o representación.Para ello, los investigadores y cientistas sociales que escriben este volumen, asumen el debate centro-periferia entendiendo que la particular mirada desarrollada desde un territorio de integración tardía, como es la Patagonia tanto en Argentina como en Chile, construye una mirada epistemológica necesaria y singular.Así, la Patagonia adopta un carácter plural, las naciones se diversifican y los sentidos y prácticas de lo estatal se complejizan. Además, las territorialidades y las subjetividades forman parte de los desafíos que se abordan, reconociéndose como abiertos. This book seeks to understand the constructions of social senses of Araucanía-Norpatagonia. And it is important to emphasize that the senses are not univocal. In this case, the plurality of the territorial is intuited in the different perspectives of approach, showing both the polysemy and the tensions behind concepts such as space, frontier or representation. For this, the researchers and social scientists who write this volume, assume the center-periphery debate, understanding that the particular view developed from a territory of late integration, such as Patagonia in both Argentina and Chile, constructs a necessary and singular epistemological perspective. Thus, Patagonia adopts a plural nature, nations diversify and the senses and practices of the state become more complex. In addition, territorialities and subjectivities are part of the challenges that are addressed, recognizing themselves as open.

Abstract

Este libro se ocupa de los modos en que la Patagonia es imaginada por diferentes discursos artísticos que se producen en su territorio: textos literarios, testimoniales e históricos; narraciones orales; producciones visuales y audiovisuales; así como de agencias colectivas de creación, difusión e investigación. Heterogéneos, los once artículos del volumen postulan y transitan la región como un entramado discursivo donde distintos sujetos desarrollan su potencialidad de acción y enunciación respecto de su propia historia. Porque de lo que se trata, según Luciana A. Mellado, es de repensar los significados de la Patagonia desde una pluralidad temática y disciplinar que recupere la centralidad de las experiencias situadas de creación e investigación artística, en búsqueda de la descolonización epistemológica. Así, el lector encontrará en esta obra una diversidad de lecturas que se ofrece en contrapunto a las narrativas hegemónicas sobre la Patagonia desde las coordenadas de la serie experiencia, identidad y memoria. This book deals with the ways in which Patagonia is imagined by different artistic discourses that take place in its territory: literary, testimonial and historical texts; oral narrations; visual and audiovisual productions; as well as collective creation, dissemination and research agencies. Heterogeneous, the eleven articles of the volume postulate and transit the region as a discursive framework where different subjects develop their potential for action and enunciation regarding their own history. Because what is involved, according to Luciana A. Mellado, is to rethink the meanings of Patagonia from a thematic and disciplinary plurality that recovers the centrality of the situated experiences of creation and artistic research, in search of epistemological decolonization. Thus, the reader will find in this work a diversity of readings offered in counterpoint to the hegemonic narratives about Patagonia from the coordinates of the series experience,…
