Description

Product Description Throughout his political and military career, Omar Cabezas fought to transform Nicaragua, to implement the ethics that had led him to participate in the armed struggle against Anastasio Somoza's regime, and to be active during the 1980s and 1990s as a member of the National Congress. Omar Cabezas, Nicaragua, and the Narrative of Liberation: To the Revolution and Beyond surveys the foundations of liberation discourse as it relates to the work of Omar Cabezas. It examines themes associated with Nicaraguan and Latin American culture and literature, considering key issues of national liberation and identity in the wake of the Sandinista revolution. By contextualizing the research within a continental and national perspective and using concepts such as utopia, orality, and humor to frame the discussion on national liberation , Mantero shows the symbiotic relationship between the work of Cabezas and the reformulation of Nicaraguan identity in the post-revolution. Review José María Montero's Omar Cabezas, Nicaragua, and the Narrative of Literation: To the Revolution and Beyond brings into focus the work of Omar Cabezas, one of the most compelling Nicaraguan revolutionary writers of the twentieth century. Through an intelligent comparative analysis of liberation discourse that situates Cabezas' writing alongside other prominent Nicaraguan authors--Ernesto Cardenal, Gioconda Belli, and Sergio Ramírez--Montero's book appreciates the ethical, political, and theoretical richness of the testimonio, and, at the same time, uncovers the often-forgotten aesthetic conditions that define liberation discourse and revolution in Nicaragua.--Brianne Orr-Álvarez, The University of British Columbia About the Author José María Mantero is professor of Spanish at Xavier University.
