    A tribute to Stephen King: Hispanic gothic and cultural globalization
    (Intellect, 2019-10-01) Ordiz Alonso-Collada, Inés
    King: Homenaje al rey del terror (King: Homage to the King of Terror) (Cáceres, 2018) is an anthology of short stories written by Latin American and Spanish young authors in tribute to Stephen King and compiled by Ecuadorian writer Jorge Luis Cáceres. The anthology has been published in Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Argentina and Spain, and some of the texts in the collection have been translated into English by the online webzine Palabras Errantes. The stories illustrate some of the new directions that contemporary Latin American and Spanish cultural production are taking, such as the exploration of non-mimetic forms of fiction (other than magical realism), the embracing of international influences and the understanding of the local in relation to the global. As a tribute to ‘the king of terror’, the short narratives collected in the anthology use resources of the Gothic, horror, the fantastic and science fiction; I concentrate my analysis on the first two. My reading of the Gothic and horror devices in the stories is informed by recent criticism on the gothic mode, as well as contemporary theories of cultural globalization and glocalization. The aim is to recognize and analyse the processes of translation, circulation, deterritorialization and multiterritorialization exemplified in the narratives, and the different ways in which these processes define contemporary Hispanic Gothic.

    Introduction: Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Persistence of the Gothic
    (Routledge, 2017) Casanova Vizcaíno, Sandra; Ordiz Alonso-Collada, Inés
    This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book offers critical readings grounded on historical, sociological, postcolonial, and postmodernist studies. It also offers an innovative analytical approach to the cultural and socio-historical events of Argentina, Chile, and Mexico through their representations in Gothic works. The book considers haunting in Juan Rulfo's novel Pedro Paramo a reminder of the social fragmentation of Mexico in the twentieth century. It examines the transformations that the Gothic undergoes in different contexts and how these adaptations engage with local social concerns related to violence, coloniality, progress, and social inequality. The book focuses on the cinema of Colombian filmmakers Luis Ospina and Carlos Mayolo, as well as on the literature of Andres Caicedo. It discusses current directions of the Gothic, examining Latin American and Caribbean texts in relation to Postmodern conceptualizations of parody, the grotesque, and/or recent critical notions of globalgothic and post-Gothic.
