En las ultimas decadas-especialmente a partir de los noventa-ha habido una visible reemergencia del siglo XIX en la cultura del Cono Sur. Figuras decimononicas tipicas (indios, gauchos, letrados y cautivas) han reaparecido en la escena literaria de Argentina, Chile y Uruguay. Heroes como San Martin y Artigas se han convertido en protagonistas principales de la literatura, el cine y el teatro. Generos fundantes de la identidad nacional (el relato de viaje, la poesia gauchesca, el romance nacional) se han reciclado y transformado. Textos canonicos como La cautiva, el Martin Fierro y el Facundo han sido reescritos una vez mas en diferentes campos artisticos. Y controvertidos eventos historicos (las guerras civiles, las masacres de las comunidades indigenas) han sido revisados y vueltos a narrar. Combinando el analisis textual con una perspectiva mas abarcadora anclada en la teoria cultural, este libro responde a dos preguntas interrelacionadas: ?por que el siglo XIX ha resurgido de manera tan fuerte en las ultimas decadas? ?Cuales son las implicaciones ideologicas de esta reemergencia?A traves de una comparacion transnacional de Argentina, Chile y Uruguay, y de una lectura de la ficcion producida por figuras prominentes en los tres paises (activistas politicos, intelectuales publicos y autores canonicos), Crisis y reemergencia contribuye a dilucidar como el campo cultural del Cono Sur ha cambiado desde los noventa: como la etica intelectual, las identidades nacionales y las estrategias discursivas que fueron funcionales a la consolidacion del liberalismo en el siglo XIX han sido reformuladas, transformadas y repensadas en las ultimas decadas. Apoyandose en el marxismo cultural, el analisis del discurso y la teoria poscolonial, el libro apunta a una triple contribucion: definir los componentes ideologicos y discursivos que estan en el corazon del siglo XIX, mostrar su continuidad hasta los noventa (y aclarar asi las conexiones entre liberalismo y neo-liberalismo) y exponer su reciente transformacionuna transformacion que abrio el camino a lo que se ha llamado el «retorno de lo politico» en la region.<BR><BR>In the last decades-and especially since the 1990s-there has been a noticeable reemergence of the nineteenth century in Southern Cone culture. Popular nineteenth-century figures (indios, gauchos, letrados, and cautivas) have reentered the national literary scene in Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay. Nineteenth-century heroes such as San Martin and Artigas are again the main protagonists of Southern Cone theater, film, and literature. Canonical nineteenth-century texts (La cautiva, Martin Fierro, Facundo) are being rewritten one more time in different artistic fields. Foundational nineteenth-century genres (travel narratives, gauchesque poems, and national romances) are being transformed and recycled. Controversial nineteenth-century events (the civil wars, the massacre of indigenous communities) are being revisited and explored. Through a combination of close textual analysis and a broader perspective rooted in cultural theory, this book answers two interrelated questions: Why did the nineteenth century resurface so strongly in the last decades? What are the ideological implications of this reemergence?Based on a transnational comparison of Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay, and a survey of narratives that were mostly produced by well-known figures (political activists, public intellectuals, and canonical authors), Crisis y reemergencia helps to elucidate how the Southern Cone cultural field has changed since the 1990s: how intellectuals' ethics, national identities, and discursive strategies that were functional to the consolidation of liberalism in the nineteenth century have been challenged, transformed, and rethought in the last decades. Borrowing from cultural Marxism, discourse analysis, and postcolonial theory, the book pursues a triple contribution: to define the discursive and ideological components that were at the core of the nineteenth century, to show their continuity up to the 1990s (and thus clarify the connections between liberalism and neoliberalism), and to expose their recent transformation-a transformation that paved the way for the «return of the political» to the region.
