How did black women and men shape the cultural productions of the period? More than four hundred texts in early modern Spanish literature include black characters in a variety of literary genres, such as drama and poetry. The vast corpus of literary narratives on blackness has not fully engaged with the fact that Spain had the second-largest black African diaspora in early modern Europe —second only to Portugal— and that black women and men at that period were producers and contributors of cultural creations. With a focus on Spain and in connection with the Iberian World, BADEM will investigate three intertwined areas of Cultural History, Literature, and Linguistics, and provide a new scholarly framework to challenge our understanding of Europe’s past and its people. It will narrate an untold story of both the tangible and intangible cultural heritage that black Africans created, primarily but not exclusively as singers, dancers, actors, storytellers, and painters. It will explore the way black Africans refashioned and contributed to the production of early modern cultural narratives on blackness; and will investigate the African cultural traits and multilingual practices of black women and men, particularly in relation to their cultural mediations. In this way, BADEMS will promote an understanding of the experiences of survival through creativity, the making of blackness, and the processes of identity-building and creolization. The project will accomplish the goals in three domains of research: conducting the first systematic locating of black cultural creators; building a unique open-access Archive of Black Creators; and producing an interdisciplinary narrative about the contributions of black women and men to the literary, and linguistic culture of Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.ver más
