Abstract:

Dance<br>M.A.<br>This thesis investigates Brasil’s Nightclub, a Philadelphia salsa club, as a site at which notions of Latino/a identity are produced and performed. Research for the thesis was conducted over the course of five months and was ethnographic in nature. From February 2016 until June 2016, the author attended Brasil’s Nightclub and collected participant observations and interviews. Findings reveal how the club accommodates multiple conflicting narratives of Latino/a identity and how these narratives are embodied through salsa dance practices.<br>Temple University--Theses

Abstract:

Thesis advisor: Dwayne E. Carpenter<br>The thesis offers an introduction to curanderismo and a critical analysis of the legacy of nineteenth century curandera and folk saint Teresita Urrea. The daughter of an indigenous servant in rural Mexico, Teresita ultimately became an icon of powerful social influence, a political threat to the Mexican dictatorship, a harsh critic of formalized medicine, and an enemy of the Catholic Church. Her legacy, however, is nuanced by her complex and, at times, contradictory life<br>Submitted to: Boston College. College of Arts and Sciences<br>Discipline: Romance

Abstract:

This project is an analytical and comprehensive study of the music of Venezuelan composer Paul Desenne, concentrating on his sonata, 'Jaguar Songs' for cello solo, written in the year 2002. The sonata, 'Jaguar Songs,' was written for French cellist Iseut Chuat and received the premiere performance by the composer Paul Desenne the following year in London. This sonata is a perfect tool for understanding Desenne's work and what I call his musical hybridization, which I consider to be a groundbreaking compositional style that will shape not only Venezuela's, but also Latin America's musical ident

Abstract:

Thesis--Indiana University, 2006.<br>Computer printout. "While the present study will focus specifically on the evolution of tonality in Ginastera's compositional style, I begin by surveying the small body of general scholarship pertinent to Ginastera, starting with his own published comments. This critical survey serves two purposes: it provides a general overview of the scholarship to date regarding Ginastera; and it demonstrates the shortcomings of that scholarship in relation to the study of tonality's evolution in Ginastera's music--hence the rationale for the present study."--Leaves 1-2.

<p> This grounded theory study explored the competing cultural expectations and cultural approaches by women from Latin American and Spanish-speaking Caribbean countries living in the United States. The study explored the following questions: In what ways do women from Latin America living in the United States establish priorities among potentially conflicting cultural expectations or roles? What internal conflicts result out of living between two cultures? What does the process for making sense of cultural expectations look like? How do Latin American women living in the United States make se

Abstract:

This thesis examines the Templo Santa Muerte in Los Angeles, a small, loosely organized spiritual group dedicated to the veneration of La Santa Muerte, or the Holy Death. Although originating in the urban barrios (neighborhoods) of Mexico City, Santa Muerte is now venerated in the southwestern United States as well, primarily among working-class Mexican Americans. Although Santa Muerte has been condemned by the Catholic clergy and vilified in mass media and popular culture for its ties to crime and gang violence, my fieldwork at the Templo Santa Muerte demonstrates that not all devotees of San

Abstract:

abstract: During the twentieth-century, the dual influence of nationalism and modernism in the eclectic music from Latin America promoted an idiosyncratic style which naturally combined traditional themes, popular genres and secular music. The saxophone, commonly used as a popular instrument, started to develop a prominent role in Latin American classical music beginning in 1970. The lack of exposure and distribution of the Latin American repertoire has created a general perception that composers are not interested in the instrument, and that Latin American repertoire for classical saxophone i

Abstract:

abstract: The worldviews and associated healing traditions of West and West Central sub-Saharan Africans and their Afro-Mexican descendants influenced the development of curanderismo, the traditional healing system of Mexico and the Southwest United States. Previous research on curanderismo, e.g. Colson (1976), Foster (1987), Ortiz de Montellano (1990), and Treviño (2001), generally emphasizes the cultural contributions of Spanish and Mesoamerican peoples to curanderismo; however, little research focuses on the cultural contributions of blacks in colonial Mexico.
