By examining the ways in which the war of interpretation that accompanied the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) circulated through Spanish and English language theatre and performance in the United States, Lisa Jackson-Schebetta demonstrates that these works offered alternative histories that challenged the racial, gender, and national orthodoxies of modernity and coloniality. Jackson-Schebetta shows how performance in the US used histories of American empires, Islamic legacies, and African and Atlantic trades to fight against not only fascism and imperialism in the 1930s and 1940s, but modernity and coloniality itself. This book offers a unique perspective on 1930s theatre and performance, encompassing the theatrical work of the Cuban, Puerto Rican, and Spanish diasporas in the United States, as well as the better-known Anglophone communities. Jackson-Schebetta situates well-known figures, such as Langston Hughes and Clifford Odets, alongside lesser-known ones, such as Erasmo Vando, Franca de Armino, and Manuel Aparicio. The milicianas, female soldiers of the Spanish Republic, stride on stage alongside the male fighters of the Lincoln Brigade. They and many others used the multiple visions of Spain forged during the civil war to foment decolonial practices across the pasts, presents, and futures of the Americas. Traveler conclusively demonstrates that theatre and performance scholars must position US performances within the Americas writ broadly, and in doing so they must recognize the centrality of the hemisphere's longest-lived colonial power, Spain"-- $c Provided by publisher. 611 27 $a Civil War (Spain : 1936-1939) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352321 650 0 $a Theater $x History $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Spain $x Literature and the war. $y Civil War, 1936-1939 $x Literature and the war. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85126121 651 0 $a Spain $x In literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008112141 651 0 $a Spain $x Foreign public opinion. 650 7 $a PERFORMING ARTS $x History & Criticism. $x History & Criticism. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999953 650 7 $a Public opinion. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01082785 650 7 $a Theater $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01149276 650 7 $a War and literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01170442 651 7 $a Spain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204303 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 830 0 $a Studies in theatre history and culture. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n90722875 941 $a 2 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20190413015925.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180515024443.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=ACCF625EEC6A11E7AF65C16E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
