This is a completely revised and updated edition of SR Books' classic text, Problems in Modern Latin American History. This book has been brought up to date by Professors John Charles Chasteen and James A. Wood to reflect current scholarship and to maximize the book's utility as a teaching tool. The book is divided into 13 chapters, with each chapter dedicated to addressing a particular "problem" in modern Latin America-issues that complement most survey texts. Each chapter includes an interpretive essay that frames a clear central issue for students to tackle, along with excerpts from historical writing that advance alternative-or even conflicting-interpretations. In addition, each chapter contains primary documents for students to analyze in relation to the interpretive issues. This primary material includes passages of Latin American fiction in translation, biographical sketches, and images. Designed as a supplemental text for survey courses on Latin American history, this book's provocative "problems" approach will engage students, evoke lively classroom discussion, and promote critical thinking.

The Tenement (O Cortiço) is a classic of literature and a synthesis of Brazilian Naturalism published in 1890. It is one of the best portraits of Brazil at the end of the Second Empire in the 19th century, recreating the reality of human groups subjected to the influence of race, environment, and historical moment. As a work of Naturalism, the plot predominates with the instincts in the behavior of the individual, the strength of the sensuality of the mixed-race woman, and the environment as a determining factor of behavior, Naturalist theses defended by the author. The protagonist of the novel is the Cortiço itself, where launderers, quarry workers, scoundrels, and poor widows jostle each other. The work contains cases of sex, betrayals, fights and racism; and it all takes place in the slum that is located in the Botafogo neighborhood, Rio de Janeiro, at the end of the 19th century.

"Conflicts during the Old Republic between Rio de Janeiro's lower orders and their employers, the transit companies, and the state about the effects of 'modernization' resulted in many losses, but also a few victories for the poor. Such popular protests have been marginalized by a historiography that tends to label them 'pre-modern' and to privilege workplace organization and protest over community protest"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

This edited volume is a collection of twelve interdisciplinary essays from various Brazilian literary scholars, historians, and anthropologists analyzing the work of 19th- and 20th-century Afro-Brazilian writer Afonso Henriques de Lima Barreto. This is the first collection to present a cohesive analysis of this writer’s work in English. It is an intellectually diverse collection of essays that recover Barreto’s œuvreand consider a wide range of topics, including Barreto’s treatment of race, family, class, social and gender politics of postabolition Brazil, neocolonialism, the disjuncture between urban and suburban spaces, and national identity politics.
