Caribbean Confederations as Relationalities
In this essay, I connect my work on Archipelago studies with Édouard Glissant’s notions of relationality and Caribbean confederations to formulate what I denominate as the erotics of archipelagic thinking. My main goal is to share my process of thinking with and through Glissant’s work to focus on a series of theoretical gestures that have allowed me to propose modes of reading literary depictions of Caribbean con/federations that go beyond the b…

Con-Federating the Archipelago
This essay introduces the special section "Con-Federating the Archipelago: The Confederación Antillana and the West Indies Federation," which interrogates the literary, intellectual, social, and political imaginaries fomented by the Confederación Antillana (Antillean Confederation) and the West Indies Federation, with the aim of promoting comparative studies and dialogue among scholars working on these two political projects. The Confederación An…
Colonialismo y decolonialidad archipelágica en el Caribe
In this paper I meditate on how to study colonialism in the case of the overseas insular territories, and what are the implications for the postcolonial and decolonial debates. I use archipelagic thinking as a lens that informs my conceptualization of the Caribbean, one of the multiple insular regions that have been conceived as overseas possesions. fte argument of this essay is developed in three thematic nodes. fte first section studies imperia…
Colonial and Mexican Archipelagoes
This chapter focuses on the Caribbean archipelago as a geopolitical and historical unit. An archipelago actually combines groups of islands and their corresponding networks of ports, fortifications, plantations, and cities, as well as their social, cultural, and productive systems. The first section of the chapter analyzes an example from a corpus of maps produced by European cartographers in which the Caribbean is represented as the "Mexican arc…
Critical Terms in Caribbean and Latin American Thought
Critical Terms in Caribbean and Latin American Thought is a collection of critical essays and responses for twelve keywords central in Latin American and Caribbean Studies: indigenismo, Americanism, colonialism, criollismo, race, transculturation, modernity, nation, gender, sexuality, testimonio, and popular culture
Spanish Caribbean Literature
This essay reflects on the colonial Spanish Caribbean as a heuristic that enriches Caribbean studies. First, it meditates on the usefulness and limitations of applying the category of the Spanish Caribbean to the analysis of some pre- and post-seventeenth-century texts. Then it focuses on the meaning of the nineteenth century in the Spanish Caribbean, with particular attention to the Caribbean confederation and 1898 as key moments in the colonial…

Reviewed by: Island Bodies: Transgressive Sexualities in the Caribbean Imagination by Rosamond King Yolanda Martínez-San Miguel (bio) King, Rosamond. Island Bodies: Transgressive Sexualities in the Caribbean Imagination. Gainesville: UP of Florida, 2014. This book takes as a point of departure the notion of Caribbean bodies, first as a locus of colonial exploitation through labor and sexual work, and then as a locus of pleasure, desire, resistanc…
Archipiélagos de ultramar
In this chapter, I explore the different inflections of filibusterismo as it is developed in imperial/colonial relations during the second half of the nineteenth century. José Rizal’s own definition of filibustero in his first novel Noli me Tangere is an excellent point of departure for the reflection I would like to propose here: 1 Según decían el telegrafista y el directorcillo, plibestiro dicho por un cristiano, un cura o un español a otro cri…
La gran colonia
Buccaneer, corsair, filibuster, pirate, and privateer are five terms commonly used to refer to the dark side of imperial expansion or to the impulse of the free market in the configuration of the colonial Caribbean as an archipelago where the Spanish, French, British, and Dutch empires collided from the beginning of the seventeenth century. These terms also refer to displacements taking place within colonial/imperial networks that cannot be conta…
Négropolitains and Nuyorícans
I would like to begin with two scenes that allude to a common experience for Antillean intracolonial migrants. The first passage comes from the well-known scene in Franz Fanon’s Peau noire, masques blancs in which a French boy expresses fear when he confronts Fanon’s blackness. I would like to focus however, on the mother’s comment to explain her son’s irrational behavior by vindicating metropolitan ignorance about the civilization of French colo…
Sexiles
In the Fall of 2007, while teaching my course on "Queer Latin America," I began my class by proposing a discussion of the term "sexile."1 According to Manolo Guzmán, this term refers to "the exile of those who have had to leave their nations of origin on account of their sexual orientation" (1997, 227). I thought sexile could be a pivotal notion to reflect about certain narratives in which characters leave their native lands to reside in a metrop…

Tomando como punto de partida las definiciones de sexilio que manejan los críticos de estudios sobre la sexualidad en el Caribe y los estudiantes de subgrado estadounidense, este ensayo estudia el exilio de las minorías sexuales en Puerto Rico y Cuba. Este estudio se enfoca en el sexilio de personajes masculinos y analiza cómo Luis Rafael Sánchez, Reinaldo Arenas y Manuel Ramos Otero representan la definición tradicional del sexilio para explorar…
Female Sexiles? Toward an Archeology of Displacement of Sexual Minorities in the Caribbean
This essay analyzes narratives by Pedro Juan Soto, Mayotte Capécia, and Michelle Cliff to propose an archaeology and working definition of “sexile” that expands the current use of the term in queer scholarship to explore links between the regulation of female sexuality and the creation of minor sexualities. Female protagonists in Soto and Capécia are exiled to the former or actual metropolis because of their excessive/transgressive sexuality, fol…
Postcolonialism
This essay proposes a brief reflection on the meanings and relevancy of postcolonialism as a keyword in contemporary cultural studies. Taking as a point of departure the well-known etymological crisis through which many scholars feel compelled to explain how postcolonial theory is still a productive approach, this entry questions the applicability of the postcolonial paradigm to study sixteenth-century Latin America, nineteenth-century Africa, or…
