Produktbeschreibung
This book visits Dominican and Dominican-American writers that negotiate their transcultural status against the ideological norms of assimilation in their host country, highlighting the symbolic interplay between emotions, cognitions, and displacement in the narratives. Méndez visits writers including Pedro Henríquez Ureña, José Luis González, Junot Díaz, Josefina Báez, and Loida Maritza Pérez in order to examine the cultural production of Dominicans in transnational settings such as New York City, New Jersey, and Puerto Rico. These writers illustrate how the nature of the diaspora is built on a double register of experience: the internal history of the Dominican Republic, and the experiences of Dominicans in the United States and Puerto Rico. The study illustrates the numerous ways in which Dominicans' subjective interpretation of their experiences of migration and incorporation into U.S. society, seen through the filter of multiple creolizations of the past, are woven into their written works as a series of variations on Americanness and Dominicanness. Through the testimony of the visited writers, Méndez maps some of the psychological constraints impinging on the symbolic world of immigrant populations who are engaged in negotiating their cultural and identity images in their host countries.
