Narraciones de la esclavitud en Cuba y los Estados Unidos
View through CrossRef
Para mostrar la construcción del imaginario social inserta en las narraciones cubanas de la esclavitud, el artículo formula algunas de las complejas estrategias y direcciones discursivas de obras literarias de Estados Unidos y Cuba. Al enfocar las correspondencias y asimetrías de poder que condicionan la producción de estos textos, que crean sus separados universos ideológicos, se cuestiona la noción tradicional de que las narrativas cubanas sobre la esclavitud eran «abolicionistas», se escribían «con el corazón», proponían cambios sociales y políticos radicales, o intentaban eliminar de forma inmediata la institución de la esclavitud en la isla.
