Скачать или смотреть Colonial Archipelagic Studies: A New Research Agenda for Caribbean Studies

In this talk Yolanda Martínez-San Miguel reviews the methodological contributions of the archipelagic framework for comparative colonial studies in the Caribbean. She reviews three key notions in her work with archipelagic Caribbean studies: “Colonial Archipelagic Cartographies,” “Con-federations” and “Overseas Territories.” She shares examples from her own research from a corpus of maps, travel narratives, literary texts, artistic manifestoes, and visual representations to propose a comparative study of the Anglo, French and Hispanic Caribbeans, Guam and Hawai‘i between 1493 and 2014.

Yolanda Martínez-San Miguel specializes in colonial, postcolonial Latin American, and Caribbean literature. She teaches courses on critical theory, comparative coloniality, gender and sexuality studies, and Latinx, Latin American, and Caribbean studies at the University of Miami.
