Transdisciplinary Approaches to History, Literature, and Culture
Edited by Carmen Haydée Rivera and Jorge Duany
University of Florida Press
In this first systematic comparative study of Cuba and Puerto Rico from both a historical and contemporary perspective, contributors highlight the interconnectedness of the two archipelagos and encourage a more nuanced and multifaceted study of the relationships between the islands and their diasporas.
Carmen Haydée Rivera, professor of English at the University of Puerto Rico in Río Piedras, is coeditor of Writing Off the Hyphen: New Critical Perspectives on the Literature of the Puerto Rican Diaspora.
Jorge Duany, director of the Cuban Research Institute and professor of anthropology at Florida International University, is the editor of Picturing Cuba: Art, Culture, and Identity on the Island and in the Diaspora.
