Calling the Soul Back: Embodied Spirituality in Chicanx Narrative Garcia Lopez Christina
Spirituality has consistently been present in the political and cultural counternarratives of Chicanx literature. Centering the relationship between embodiment and literary narrative, Christina Garcia Lopez shows narrative as healing work through which writers and readers ritually call back the soul--one's unique immaterial essence--into union with the body, counteracting the wounding fragmentation that emerged out of colonization and imperialism. Calling the Soul Back focuses on the embodied aspects of a spirituality integrating body, mind, and soul.
These readings feature both underanalyzed and more popular works by pivotal writers such as Gloria Anzald a, Sandra Cisneros, and Rudolfo Anaya, in addition to works by less commonly acknowledged authors.Calling the Soul Back explores the spiritual and ancestral knowledge offered in narratives of bodies in trauma, bodies
