Abstract
ESPINOSA ARANGO, MÓNICA. EL INDIO LOBO. MANUEL QUINTÍN LAME EN LA COLOMBIA MODERNA. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2003, vol.39, pp.139-172. ISSN 0486-6525.
THIS ARTICLE OFFERS SEVERAL INTERPRETATIONS ON THE THOUGHT OF MANUEL QUINtín Lame structured around three main thematic axes: 1) humanity; 2) history; and 3) writing and mimesis. Lame is analyzed as an "un-appropriated and un-appropriatable Other", exploring feminist ways of interpreting the "subject" and postcoloniality's concern with alterity and the construction of an "Other" within racial taxonomies, the technologies of power within colonialism/modernity and finally, discourse theories' interest in the construction of meaning within contexts of cultural interaction immersed in relationships of domination/resistance and disciplinary regimes of power/knowledge. The "transculturality" of such thought is explored; it's decolonizing character, the dynamics of self-representation and translation, its ambivalence, unoriginality and cultural reinvention.
Keywords : anthropology; colonialism/modernity; 20th century Colombian cultural history; politics of indigeneity; Manuel Quintín Lame.
