In 1899, the United Fruit Company (UFCO) was officially incorporated in Boston, Massachusetts, beginning an era of economic, diplomatic, and military interventions in Central America. This event marked the inception of the struggle for economic, political, and cultural autonomy in Central America as well as an era of homegrown inequities, injustices, and impunities to which Central Americans have responded in creative and critical ways. This juncture also set the conditions for the creation of the Transisthmus—a material, cultural, and symbolic site of vast intersections of people, products, and narratives.Taking 1899 as her point of departure, Ana Patricia Rodríguez offers a comprehensive, comparative, and meticulously researched book covering more than one hundred years, between 1899 and 2007, of modern cultural and literary production and modern empire-building in Central America. She examines the grand narratives of (anti)imperialism, revolution, subalternity, globalization, impunity, transnational migration, and diaspora, as well as other discursive, historical, and material configurations of the region beyond its geophysical and political confines.Focusing in particular on how the material productions and symbolic tropes of cacao, coffee, indigo, bananas, canals, waste, and transmigrant labor have shaped the transisthmian cultural and literary imaginaries, Rodríguez develops new methodological approaches for studying cultural production in Central America and its diasporas.Monumental in scope and relentlessly impassioned, this work offers new critical readings of Central American narratives and contributes to the growing field of Central American studies.

Excerpt from A New Voyage and Description of the Isthmus of AmericaPeace was more easily proclaimed than enforced. The habits Of more than a century habits Of reckless daring and riotous debauchery, Of a steady flow Of Spanish treasure through Jamaica toward London, where the complaints Of those who felt the decrease in rents and per quisites were not the least Of the troubles Of the Lords Of Trade and Plantations were not readily overcome. Some Of the buccaneers who, like Henry Morgan, were in funds at the time, settled down and became most respectable members Of the community. More spent their money as they had spent it before, and then looked about for a fresh supply. Thus it is easy to understand how it came to pass that every now and then a shipload Of jolly lads, with nothing in the world to lose, sailed out by Port Royal to take whatever the high seas had to Offer.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
