Abstract:
Abstract The Amazonian region occupies a singular place in the fiction and nonfiction of the Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa. Author of paradigmatic novels on the Peruvian Amazon, Vargas Llosa nevertheless has repeatedly defended extensive exploitation of Amazonian natural resources—at the expense of Indigenous rights and environmental conservation—in his essays and political activities. This article discusses this conflict between Vargas Llosa's fictional and nonfictional work on the Amazon through the lens of a theory of fiction that emerges from his essays across decades and that suggests that the fictional text is independent from the referential reality it represents. By revisiting his novels and writings about fiction, this article argues that Vargas Llosa's belief in the autonomy of fiction from its referential reality explains, to a certain extent, how the fascination with the Amazon present in the author's novels coexists with his defense of drastic changes in the region through environmental exploitation and the acculturation of Indigenous populations. While Vargas Llosa's work enjoyed a positive reception in the 1960s, the nontransitive notion of mimesis he proposed has gradually taken on reactionary undertones in the context of changing expectations since the 1980s and 1990s.

Abstract:
Emilio Adolfo Westphalen, a Semi-Surrealist. This work aims to establish similarities between surrealist poetry and the poetry of the Peruvian poet Emilio Adolfo Westphalen. The first part of the text is aiming to outline main characteristics of avant-garde literature in Peru between the years 1920 and 1930 and the process of implantation of a surrealist movement born in Europe. The mentioned process of implantation was hard and complex, especially, because it clashed with the local political system and partial renunciation of the previous movements such as Modernism, Symbolism, and Romanticism. Also, French surrealism had to face literary Peruvian critics who were not ready for the arrival of something new. Consequently, Emilio Adolfo Westphalen expressed his discontent over the fossilized literary critic and his poet friends in his correspondence and essays. Westphalen was not only interested in the surrealism of others, but he was also interested in surrealism for his poetry. Our study is based particularly on the following sources: the essays of Emilio Adolfo Westphalen, the surrealist theory included in the Manifestoes of Surrealism, and the critical works by Mirko Lauer, Américo Ferrari, etc.

ResumenToda la obra historiográfica republicana del intelectual peruano Jorge Basadre Grohmann (1903-1980) se sustenta en una rica filosofía de la historia que parte de su opción por la filosofía clásica griega, así como de la filosofía alemana moderna; sus ensayos socio-históricos son los que mejor interpretan filosóficamente la actualidad peruana, clave para comprender su vigencia y trascendencia intelectual. De cara a la conmemoración del Bicentenario de la Independencia, con el presente estudio iniciamos la exploración de esa veta filosófica que aparece, permanece yfluye en toda su obra.Palabras clave: Identidad, proyecto, posibilidad, promesa, ser, Nación, Estado, peruanidad. AbstractAll the republican historiographic research of the Peruvian intellectual Jorge Basadre Grohmann (1903-1980) is supported by a rich philosophy of history that emerges from his choice for classical Greek philosophy, as well as modern German philosophy; and his socio-historical essays remains as the best way to interpret Peru nowadays: is the key to understand its validity and intellectual transcendence. In the face of the commemoration of the Peruvian Independence Bicentennial, with this study we begin the exploration of that philosophical vein that appears and remains in all his works.Keywords: Identity, project, possibility, promise, being, Nation, State, Peruvian identity.

The article considers the French novel “Letters from a Peruvian Woman&8j1; (Lettres d’une Péruvienne, 1747) by Françoise de Graffigny, as well as the “Historical introduction…&8j1; (Introduction historique aux lettres péruviennes), which was included into the novel in 1752, and where the Inca Empire is described in an idealized way. The main source of information for F. de Graffigny was “The Royal commentaries of the Incas&8j1; by Garcilaso de la Vega (1609) and other philosophical, critical and fictional publications on American natives: Michel de Montaigne’s essays, the tragedy “Alzira, or the Americans&8j1; by Voltaire, etc. The “Historical introduction...&8j1; praises the wealth and wisdom of the Incas, the merits of their state organization. This article claims that the “Historical introduction…&8j1; plays an important ideological and compositional role in F. de Graffigny’s book: a utopian description of the Inca Empire serves as a specific philosophical frame for the novel with a love story. Ideas concerning the empire of the ancient Incas, as reflected in the fictional “Letters from a Peruvian Woman&8j1;, are congenial with the Age of Enlightenment.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Aníbal Quijano has been one of the most astute and purposeful Latin American social theorists of the second half of the 20th century. His pioneering essays on the ‘Coloniality of Power’ not only inspired the project of Modernity/Coloniality/Decoloniality, but have also influenced countless intellectuals and activists who were not necessarily involved in the so-called ‘Decolonial Turn.’ While Quijano has not left behind a text in which all of the characteristics of his theory on ‘Coloniality’ are systematised, it can be argued that the lengthy essay ‘Coloniality of Power, Eurocentrism and Latin America,’ published for the first time twenty years ago, was intended to provide such an overview of his thought. The purpose of this forum is to critically debate the legacy of the Peruvian sociologist during a period which Quijano himself later described as the ‘Root Crisis of the Coloniality of Global Power.’ In the first section, José Gandarilla presents the Latin American antecedents and precursors of the use of the term ‘Coloniality.’ Next, Haydeé García reflects on the interdisciplinary perspective in Aníbal Quijano, the weight of totality, and its historical articulations. Finally, Daniele Benzi opens up and addresses some queries regarding ‘colonial/modern and Eurocentered capitalism,’ from the perspective of macro-historical sociology.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on the key role played by fundamental science and, in particular, by Albert Einstein’s Theory of Relativity in Mariátegui’s thought. Despite his limited grasp of fundamental physics, Mariátegui was deeply interested in the change of scientific paradigm brought about by Einsteinian physics. For the Peruvian Marxist, the Theory of Relativity demonstrated the contingency of truth (scientific or otherwise) as a historically bound discursive construct devoid of any universal validity. Taking Einstein’s scientific revolution as a source of inspiration for revolutionary politics, Mariátegui reclaimed in his journalistic essays the value of scientific inquiry to the development of a revolutionary conscience. In doing so, he transforms the Theory of Relativity into a tool of ideological critique, capable of subverting the contemporary logic of coloniality and the strong links between scientific positivism and the projects of modernity designed by the Latin American ruling elites at the turn of the century.

Abstract:
The periodic table is ubiquitous in chemistry—as it is in science and in the popular imagination. These days “nerdism” has become a respectable way of being. While science may continue to get bad press, having an expertise in technical matters appears to be increasingly respected. We should all be grateful for the latter if not the former.. The periodic table is one of the areas in science that seems to come under the scrutiny of highly gifted children. Through the YouTube, and the Internet in general, we encounter younger and younger children who are drawn to learning the names of the elements in their correct atomic number sequence. What is this scientific and cultural icon that seems to evoke such strong passions even at such early ages? Much has been written on the periodic table in recent years, including technical articles and books as well as popular expositions aimed at a variety of audiences. Why do we need another book on the subject? The answer is that as popular interest in the subject grows it becomes even more important for experts in different fields to provide an ever-deeper analysis of what it is we are all talking about. This project began some years ago following a conference on the periodic table that was held in the idyllic Peruvian city of Cuzco. The organizer, Julio Gutierrez Samanez, has had a lifelong interest in the periodic table, especially its mathematical aspects. It was at this meeting (which included the inevitable excursion to the nearby Inca temple at Machu Picchu) that Scerri and Restrepo conceived of the idea of a book of essays aimed at furthering the foundations of all aspects of the periodic table. We quickly decided that we should also invite authors who might not have attended the meeting. These included mathematicians, physicists, geologists, historians, chemists, semioticians, and philosophers from many different countries and with a variety of interests. We naturally turned to Oxford University Press as a possible publisher given their recent record in, not to say virtual domination of, the field of books on the periodic table.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the resurgence of avant-garde aesthetics in El Gran Vidrio (The Large Glass) by the Mexican-Peruvian author Mario Bellatin. Taking as its departure point this unsettling trio of apparently autobiographical stories published in 2007, the essay deals with the way in which Bellatin takes up the legacy of dadaism. More broadly, the contribution interrogates how this artistic project from Latin America ties in with the historical avant-garde, how it is situated within the contemporary and how this double positioning has been interpreted differently by various critics.

Abstract:
More than one hundred years ago, German archeologist Max Uhle excavated textiles and ceramics on the Huaca del Sol in the Moche Valley, Perú. This essay analyzes the textiles now housed in the Phoebe Hearst Museum of Anthropology of the University of California at Berkeley. The group is significant for the time period during the Andean Middle Horizon (600-900 CE), the variety of textile styles, and the presence of Moche textiles on the north coast of Perú where textiles are not commonly preserved. The textiles identify at least three separate traditions: a local Moche style, a hybrid highland/coastal style and a Wari associated style. The essay discusses the Huaca del Sol textiles as an opportunity to examine relations between the two important Peruvian cultures of Moche and Wari.

Abstract:
This essay reflects on how the author’s wide-ranging experiences in the Peruvian Andes and the Caribbean shaped both her indirect path to the academy and her research interests. Her own and her family’s migrations throughout the twentieth century, coupled with the current world refugee crisis, have especially influenced her historical perspective on her current project. As she traces the routes and experiences of runaway Caribbean slaves who crossed political borders in search of freedom, she has come to see fugitive slaves as belonging to a wider story of refugees and asylum seekers throughout human history—one in which women have played a central and often under-recognized role.

Abstract:
In this essay Cardemil-Krauze reconstructs the life and writings of Peruvian politician Hildebrando Fuentes during and after his tenure as mayor (Prefecto) of Iquitos, the most important Amazonian riverine port in Peru. Fuentes’ rarely studied memoirs, Iquitos: Apuntes geográficos (1908) are explored here, exposing the sordid years of the Rubber Boom from the perspective of one of the members of the city’s governing elite. Written contemporaneously with Euclides’ texts, Iquitos attests to Peru’s nationalizing plans for the Amazonian region and its indigenous population. Cardemil-Krauze’s analysis portrays the painful and oftentimes contradictory impulses Fuentes navigates as he tries to negotiate Loretano regionalism (Loreto is an Amazonian department of Peru) with Lima’s centralism, while simultaneously attempting to create a viable state presence in Iquitos.

Full text
Abstract:
This essay examines the persistent trope of ‘tropical degeneration’ in Arturo Burga Freitas’s Mal de gente (1943). Set in the Peruvian Amazon, the novel is the story of a young European, Edmund Rice, who, like a number of protagonists of the contemporaneous Spanish American novela de la selva, travels to the region for the purposes of work and ends up settling permanently in the jungle. The natural world depicted in Burga Freitas’s book is a zone of exploitation, characterised by the European plundering of tropical products, chiefly rubber. Yet countering this assessment of nature is the native Amazonian view of the jungle as an animate force, capable of enchanting outsiders and reducing them to a kind of vegetable state. This article explores how the idea of ‘going native’ is redefined and redeployed in Mal de gente to counter discourses of nature as an economic resource. Drawing on the work of Philippe Descola and Eduardo Vivieros de Castro, among others, this essay shows that, far from being a negative condition, the ‘degeneration’ of Burga Frieta’s protagonist is a corrective to the over-exploitation of the Amazon and a recognition of the profound interconnectedness of man and the natural world.

Abstract:
This essay explores the political and discursive mechanisms Brazilian writer Da Cunha employs to build a historical past for Brazil in the Amazon, while simultaneously discrediting Bolivia and Peru’s territorial demands on the Acre region in Amazonia. Building his argument on boundary-making history, cartographical data, and nationalistic feelings, Torres argues that Da Cunha crafts a compelling case for Brazil’s rightful purchase of Acre and expansion of its frontiers in two ways. Firstly, Da Cunha identifies the value of the Amazon, whether as a political, economic, or even symbolic capital that can be utilized to lay the grounds for a diplomatic defense, and therefore lawfulness of their territorial claims. Secondly, Torres goes on to argue that Da Cunha is aware of the decisive nature of his mission for the mapping of a terrain visited only by local Indians and Peruvian rubber tappers. This consciousness leads him to compose a history for Brazil in the Amazon with the intention of nationalizing the territory; in other words, to turn an abstract and alien place into one concrete narrative in which the uprooted nation is reunited and homogenized under a common and shared identity.

Abstract:
Abstract Thirty years ago, Peter Rivière (1969b) published an essay comparing two specialized objects, the blowpipe and the hair tube, found in several indigenous cultures of southern Guyana and northern Brazil, a region divided into savannah and forest. He observed that groups located in the north of this region possessed blowpipes but no hair tubes, while those in the south had hair tubes but no blowpipes. He showed that the complementary distribution of these two tubular objects reflected not so much the history or the mode of subsistence of these groups, but, rather, a broader set of ideas contained in their myths. Moreover, he proposed that the hollow tubes found in this cultural area should be interpreted as energy ‘transformers’ (they transform untamed, dangerous energy into controlled, socialized energy). According to this interpretation, the hollow tube is one of the means imagined by southern Guyana and northern Brazil indigenous societies to conceptualize dynamically the relationship between nature and culture.
