Latin American Library Greenleaf Fellow Gina Ruz Rojas to present research on carnival and independence festivals in Cartagena

View Full Event Description

Please join the Latin American Library in welcoming Gina Ruz Rojas, a 2018-2019 LAL Richard E. Greenleaf scholar, who will be giving a work-in-progress talk titled Cartagena de Indias y el Caribe: Carnavales y Fiestas de Independencia/Cartagena de Indias and the Caribbean: Carnivals and Independence Festivities on Thursday, March 21, from 3:00 – 5:00 PM in the Latin American Library seminar room.

The talk will be in Spanish.

Resumen
Desde 1812, la ciudad caribeÃ±a colombiana de Cartagena de Indias ha celebrado su independencia de EspaÃ±a con fiestas de independencia locales en torno al 11 de noviembre. Estas Fiestas de Independencia coexistieron, desde el siglo XIX hasta la década de 1930, con un carnaval ligado al calendario litúrgico y que se remonta al período colonial. Sin embargo, algunas manifestaciones de ese carnaval siguen presentes en la fiesta patriótica, es decir, que en Cartagena de Indias coexisten elementos de unas fiestas de procedencias distintas – por una parte, la celebración republicana, y por otra, las prácticas propias del carnaval tradicional que se erigen en contraposición al orden establecido. La investigación busca identificar matices, hibridaciones, huellas de contribuciones, tradiciones, y vasos comunicantes entre el carnaval y las Fiestas de Independencia de Cartagena, y de estos con otros carnavales y sus manifestaciones a través de un análisis comparado entre diversas experiencias.

Gina Ruz Rojas es Abogada de la Universidad de Cartagena, y Magister en Desarrollo y Cultura de la Universidad Tecnológica de Bolívar. Es docente universitaria e investigadora asociada del Laboratorio de Investigación e Innovación en Cultura y Desarrollo L+iD de la Universidad Tecnológica de Bolívar. Ha ejercido, además, como gestora cultural a cargo de varios proyectos culturales en Cartagena. Ha publicado Fiestas de Independencia: el tambor que no calla, en Los desterrados del paraíso: raza, pobreza y cultura en Cartagena de Indias (2015); y Cartagena: reinas, fiesta e independencia , en La Fiesta en Colombia (2017). Es coautora de Las Fiestas de Independencia de Cartagena como patrimonio cultural inmaterial de la Nación colombiana, documento base para la postulación de las Fiestas de Independencia a la Lista Representativa de Patrimonio Cultural Inmaterial de la Nación (2016).

Abstract
Since 1812, the Colombian Caribbean city of Cartagena de Indias has celebrated its independence from Spain through local Fiestas de Independencia, or Independence Day festivities. From the early 19th century to the 1930s, this festival coexisted with carnival traditions in tandem with the Catholic calendar and stemming from the colonial period. Even though disappeared, some of these carnival traditions continue to be present in the patriotic festival as celebrated today. In other words, in Cartagena de Indias we have elements of two different traditions – on one hand, the Independence festivities while, on the other, festival practices stemming from carnival traditions, which tend to disrupt the established order. My research will identify nuances, hybridizations, traces of contributions, traditions, and modes of communication between carnivals of the Caribbean and their manifestations in Cartagena through a comparative analysis.

Gina Ruz Rojas is a professor and research associate at the Research and Innovation Laboratory in Culture and Development L + iD of Universidad Tecnológica de Bolívar in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia. She holds a Law degree from Universidad de Cartagena and a Master‘s degree in Development and Culture from Universidad Tecnológica de Bolívar. She has spearheaded various projects promoting culture and the arts and is the author of several articles on festivals and culture, including Fiestas de Independencia: El tambor que no calla, in Los desterrados del paraíso; Raza, pobreza y cultura en Cartagena de Indias (2015) and Cartagena: reinas, fiesta e independencia, in La Fiesta en Colombia (2017). She also co-authored a study, Las Fiestas de Independencia de Cartagena como patrimonio cultural inmaterial de la Nación colombiana, which is part of a dossier presented to the Colombian Ministry of Culture to include Cartagena’s Fiestas de la Independencia as Intangible Cultural Heritage of the Nation (2016).

The Richard E. Greenleaf Fellowship Program at the Latin American Library is made possible by a generous gift from the late Richard E. Greenleaf.

Critical Issues in Democratic Governance: Spring 2019 CIPR Series

View Full Event Description

Latin America faces major threats to democratic governance, but there are also new opportunities for grassroots mobilization and social policy expansion. In Critical Issues in Democratic Governance the Stone Center for Latin American Studies and the Center for Inter-American Policy and Research will host speakers to discuss emerging issues that have surfaced in democratic governance in the region. In Brazil, the AIDS movement constructed a powerful new advocacy coalition, with coordination between bureaucrats and activities. In Argentina and Brazil, there are sharp contrasts in the social welfare policies that governors and mayors have implemented, with profound consequences for livelihood of the poor and marginalized. Finally, the outbreak of violence across Latin America, under democratic regimes raises questions about how criminal organizations compete for influence over transnational illicit networks and infiltrate the state.

Workshop and panel discussion of Azul at the Southern Rep Theatre

View Full Event Description

The Cuban and Caribbean Studies Institute at Tulane University, in collaboration with the Southern Rep Theatre, are proud to announce two events in celebration of the reopening of the Southern Rep Theatre and the spring premiere of the play Azul written by Christina Quintana, a New York-based writer with Cuban and Louisiana roots, and Estefanía Fadul, a Colombian-born, New Hampshire-raised, New York City-based director and producer. In this evocative new play, lifelong New Yorker Zelia struggles to center herself after the loss of her Cuban-born mother. As Zelia digs into her mother’s legacy, she learns of her tía-abuela, the great-aunt who remained in Cuba for the love of another woman. Echoes of the past inform Zelia’s own relationship with her wife and her struggle to place herself between worlds. A workshop with Christina Quintana will take place on Thursday, March 14, 2019 at 4:00 PM in the Greenleaf Conference Room (100A Jones Hall). There will also be a Panel Discussion before the play at the Southern Rep Theatre on Saturday, April 6, 2019.

The 13,000-square-foot former St. Rose de Lima Church on Bayou Road has given Southern Rep Theatre a permanent home, something it had lost since leaving Canal Place. The history of the project and more information about the theatre space may be found in the New Orleans Advocate article Southern Rep finds new home in former church.

Southern Rep Theatre will be showing Azul beginning March 27 continuing through April 14, 2019. Group tickets will be available for classes or student organizations. Tickets will be available at a reduced price for students, educators and young professionals at the following prices:
