Dissertation topic: Mobility, Modernity and the Geographic Imaginary in Argentina and Brazil, 1955-1975 (working title)
A comparative analysis of Brazilian and Argentine cinema and narrative literature during a period of mutual political and cultural volatility. Addresses works that contest prevailing discourses of geographical consciousness, particularly as they pertain to each nation’s vast national interiors. Attending to the tremendous innovation occasioned by cinema in both countries at the time, study effectively reads works of literature through the prism of cinematic constructions of space. Adopts and challenges major trends in critical spatial theory in order to engage debates on the evolution of Latin America’s so-called peripheral modernity. Corpus includes films by Fernando Birri, Jorge Bodansky, Nicolás Sarquís and Andrea Tonacci, and texts by Sarmiento, Euclides da Cunha, Antonio Di Benedetto, Juan José Saer, Lúcio Cardoso, and Dalton Trevisan.
