Description: Constitutive Visions by Christa J. Olson Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Examines the history of national identity in Ecuador from 1857 to 1946. Brings together recent work in rhetoric, visual culture, transnationalism, and Latin American studies to explore the different visions of indigenous people that circulated in speeches, periodicals, and art. Publisher Description In Constitutive Visions, Christa Olson presents the rhetorical history of republican Ecuador as punctuated by repeated arguments over national identity. Those arguments-as they advanced theories of citizenship, popular sovereignty, and republican modernity-struggled to reconcile the presence of Ecuadors large indigenous population with the dominance of a white-mestizo minority. Even as indigenous people were excluded from civic life, images of them proliferated in speeches, periodicals, and artworks during Ecuadors long process of nation formation. Tracing how that contradiction illuminates the textures of national-identity formation, Constitutive Visions places petitions from indigenous laborers alongside oil paintings, overlays woodblock illustrations with legislative debates, and analyzes Ecuadors nineteen constitutions in light of landscape painting. Taken together, these juxtapositions make sense of the contradictions that sustained and unsettled the postcolonial nation-state. Author Biography Christa J.
