Abstract Details

2010, Master of Arts, Miami University, Spanish.
This work examines the modes of representation of the incipient figure of the immigrant in Spanish society by analyzing the dramatic works of Ignacio del Moral’s La mirada del hombre oscuro (1992) and Jerónimo López Mozo’s Ahlán (1996), as well as the Imanol Uribe’s film, Bwana (1996). Simultaneously, it intends to explore the consequences of the relations between this new Other and the Spaniard observing the new realities emerging from this contact. In order to conduct this study I will concentrate on three topics. Firstly, I will focus on the construction of identity, a process requiring a constant negotiation between the participating cultures. Secondly, I will examine the spatial margins to which the immigrant is relegated, but which are also the location to build a new inclusive reality. Finally, I will address the question of gender by highlighting the stereotypical discourses that reinforce female subalternity.
