摘要

本文探讨了雷娜-格兰德（Reyna Grande）的小说《跨越百座山》（2006 年）和安娜-卡斯蒂略（Ana Castillo）的小说《守护者》（2007 年）是如何参与有关移民、失踪和性别暴力的半球对话的。文章以移民在边境地区的失踪以及亲属随后的寻找和哀悼为背景，对这两部小说作品进行了研究。研究引用了主权的概念，在边境失踪事件与专制政权之间建立了联系，这在乔治-阿甘本（Giorgio Agamben）的 "圣者"（homo sacer）范式中显而易见，圣者是一个被剥夺了法律地位并面临死亡的个体。此外，文章还分析了这些小说是如何关注留守家庭岌岌可危的生活条件、暴力和压迫环境的。

Requiem for desaparecidos, migrants and the assaulted women in the borderlands: Across A Hundred Mountains by Reyna Grande and The Guardians by Ana Castillo

This article examines how the novels Across a Hundred Mountains (2006) by Reyna Grande and The Guardians (2007) by Ana Castillo participate in a hemispheric conversation about migration, disappearance, and gender violence. The article considers these two works of fiction within the context of the vanishing of immigrants in the borderlands and the subsequent search and mourning endured by the relatives. The study invokes the concept of sovereignty to establish a link between the disappearances at the border and authoritarian regimes, which is visible through Giorgio Agamben’s paradigm of homo sacer, an individual stripped of legal status and exposed to death. Further, the article analyzes how these novels focus on the precarious living conditions, violence, and oppressive circumstances of families left behind.

期刊介绍： Latino Studies has established itself as the leading, international peer-reviewed journal for advancing interdisciplinary scholarship about the lived experience and struggles of Latinas and Latinos for equality, representation, and social justice. Sustaining the tradition of activist scholarship of the founders of Chicana and Chicano Studies and Puerto Rican Studies, the journal critically engages the study of the local, national, transnational, and hemispheric realities that continue to influence the Latina and Latino presence in the United States. It is committed to developing a new transnational research agenda that bridges the academic and non-academic worlds and fosters mutual learning and collaboration among all the Latino national groups. Latino Studies provides an intellectual forum for innovative explorations and theorization. We welcome submissions of original research articles of up to 8,000 words, from scholars and practitioners in the national and international research communities. In addition to scholarly articles, we also invite other type of submissions. Vivencias or ''reports from the field'' are short personal essays between 2000-3000 words that describe and analyze significant local issues, struggles and debates affecting the lives of Latinas/os in different regions of the country. We also welcome interviews with Latinas/os who are contributing in their local communities or nationwide (e.g. authors, artists, community activists, union leaders, etc.). Our aim in publishing the ''reports'' is to inform readers about events that are sometimes over-looked by the national and regional media.The Reflexiones Pedagógicas section includes short essays between 2000-3000 words that address issues of pedagogy and curriculum. This section contributes toward the development and institutionalization of our field in the academy. Páginas Recuperadas are short essays between 2000-3000 words that seek to recover archival documents. These essays make visible, historically significant achievements by individuals, and pivotal events in the experience of Latinas/os in the United States. El Foro is an occasional section that provides a space for essays of approximately 6000 words, addressing current events, in an effort to further engage our readers in a dialogue on the pressing issues affecting Latina/o communities today.Book and media reviews are devoted to scholarship/media on the experience of Latinas/os in the United States. Reviews are no more than 1000 words.
