Latvian Multiculturalism, Postcolonialism, and World Literature
2020
The aim of this chapter is to discuss the complexity of the self-consciousness of the inhabitants of contemporary Latvia from a postcolonial perspective. This approach demonstrates how the experience of a small nation helps to reveal the common roots of Europe and to build both theoretical and practical bridges between different societies and their members. It also contextualizes the relation of so-called small literatures to the global literary field. The highly acclaimed novel of contemporary Latvian author, Inga Ābele, Klūgu mūks (2014), about the life and work of the Catholic priest and politician Francis Trasuns, provides the focus of attention and serves as the background for a case s…
Discussing Eurocentric evaluative epistemic hegemony: an exploratory approach
2017
En el presente artículo pretendo, de una forma aún exploratoria, reunir algunos presupuestos de las teorías poscoloniales/descoloniales para elaborar un pensamiento crítico sobre la hegemonía de determinadas políticas, procesos e instrumentos de evaluación (o de medición educativa), que son claramente eurocéntricos (o euroamericanos) y que integran la actual agenda educativa global. Sin pretender contribuir para subsanar cualquier posible laguna pero reconociendo que, a pesar de las conocidas excepciones, el campo de las políticas de evaluación se encuentra relativamente saturado por abordajes repetitivos y previsibles, me resulta llamativa la capacidad hermenéutica de los presupuestos posc…

Translating culture: Charles Mungoshi's Waiting for the Rain
2008
In Waiting for the Rain Charles Mungoshi chose a western form, the novel, and a western language, English, to try and convey the deep changes at work in Zimbabwean society at the time. This paper focuses on both aspects: first, the adaptation of the novelistic genre to Zimbabwean culture, and second, the defamiliarization of the English language, which is not Mungoshi's mother tongue. What is questioned is whether the incorporation of essentially oral elements, belonging to and borrowed from a specific culture and language, which are initially peripheral and foreign to the dominant "English" culture, can transform both Zimbabwean culture and English culture – in other words, Waiting for the…
