Description
Summary:The new Latin-American narration reflects the importance of such figures as exodus and exile, and kindles the «nomadic condition», the notions of uprooting and «cultural runaway», the «migratory artist», as elements of identity in the globalization processes. The writer now lives deliberately «outside his tribe» or his nation which traditionally protected him – bringing about a revision of the idea of «national literature» – and conveying a deep interdependence, promoted by the multiplication of distribution and broadcasting circuits, a new cartography of possessions based on segmented and combined streams which cross and erase existing boarders. In this conference we shall underline the importance of extraterritoriality and transnationality in its recent productions.
