{"product_id":"violentologies","title":"Violentologies","description":"Violentologies: Violence, Identity, and Ideology in Latina\/o Literature, explores how various forms of violence undergird a wide range of Latina\/o subjectivities, or Latinidades, from 1835 to the present. Drawing upon the Colombian interdisciplinary field of violence studies known as violentología, which examines the transformation of Colombian society during a century of political and interpersonal violence, this book adapts the neologism \"violentology\" as a heuristic device and epistemic category to map the salience of violence in Latina\/o history, life, and culture in the U.S. and globally.\n\nBased on one hundred primary texts and archival documents from an expansive range of Latina\/o communities - Chicana\/o, Puerto Rican, Cuban American, Dominican American, Salvadoran American, Guatemalan American, and various mixed-heritages and transversal hybridities throughout the world - Violentologies features multiple generations of Latinx combatants, wartime non-combatants, and \"peacetime\" civilians whose identities and ideologies extend through, and also far beyond, familiar Latinidades. Based on this discrepant archive, Violentologies articulates a contrapuntal assessment of the inchoate, contradictory, and complex range of violence-based Latina\/o ontologies and epistemologies, and corresponding negotiations of power, or ideologies, pursuant to an expansive and meta-critical Pan-Latina\/o methodology and, ultimately, an anti-identitarian Post-Latina\/o paradigm.","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54229664006488,"sku":"9780198863090","price":109.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780198863090.jpg?v=1778532327","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/violentologies","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
