Descargar Libro: Intellectual Nations: Mexican Literary Modernity From The Constitution To The Border (1917 2000).

This dissertation proposes an analysis of representative texts within the category of intellectual nations . The idea of intellectual nations is inscribed in the project of questioning the centrality and canonicity of certain cultural productions that have given legitimacy to the hegemonic idea of nationalism, which helped sustain the PRI regime in Mexico. The dissertation, thus, seeks to follow an intellectual tradition that thought the nation in coordinates different to those institutionalized by the PRI State. I define intellectual nation as a discursive construction that imagines other forms of conceiving the national , articulated within the literary field and enunciated from a non-hegemonic position with respect to the field of power. In these terms, the dissertation is focused in the specific study of representative texts within this tradition, written between 1917 and 2000, through certain terms that have been defining the evolution of Mexican literature: national culture, tradition, modernity, border, Occidentalism. This study is thus centered in texts that allow the study of intellectual nations in diverse historical contexts. These contexts have been chosen in order to speak of important moments of transformation within the intellectual field, as well as of the state ideology and the emergence of social movements where the intellectual nations played an important role.
