商品描述
This book contrasts Puerto Rico's eco-political history with its narrative and symbolic routes of disaster, trauma, and resilience, noting points of convergence and divergence. Since hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico in 2017 there has been an explosion of creative and critical works that depict and analyze the aftermath of disaster, and this book systematically documents the continuities and discontinuities of how disasters are represented and underrepresented from earlier eras to the present. This book offers a politically-challenging cultural analysis that goes beyond orthodox Puerto Rican cultural thinking.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書對比了波多黎各的生態政治歷史與其災難、創傷和韌性的敘事及象徵路徑，並指出了交匯與分歧的點。自2017年颶風瑪莉亞摧毀波多黎各以來，出現了大量創意和批判性的作品，描繪和分析災後的情況，本書系統性地記錄了從早期到現在災難的表現及其被低估的連續性和不連續性。本書提供了一種具有政治挑戰性的文化分析，超越了正統的波多黎各文化思維。
