Tex[t]-Mex

Informationen zum Autor By William Anthony Nericcio Klappentext Nericcio engages in close readings of rogue/icons Rita Hayworth! Speedy Gonzalez! Lupe Vé lez! and Frida Kahlo! as well as Orson Welles' film Touch of Evil and the comic artistry of Gilbert Hernandez. He playfully yet devastatingly discloses how American cultural creators have invented and used these and other Tex(t)-Mexicans since the Mexican Revolution of 1910! thereby exposing the stereotypes! agendas! phobias! and intellectual deceits that drive American popular culture. This sophisticated! innovative history of celebrity Latina/o mannequins in the American marketplace takes a quantum leap toward a constructive and deconstructive next-generation figuration/adoration of Latinos in America. Zusammenfassung An original, provocative, and highly entertaining deconstruction of familiar Mexican stereotypes in American popular culture. Inhaltsverzeichnis Nonhallucinatory Prefatory Palabras...
