Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conquest of the Isthmus: The Men Who Are Building the Panama Canal Their Daily Lives, Perils, and Adventures The Panama Canal never will be dug by machinery alone. Beyond the steam shovels and the dirt trains, beyond the air-drillers and the dredges, the union of the Atlantic and the Pacific depends upon the men who are giving health, wealth, and life in the battle with the tropical jungle. It is of these men, the khaki heroes of the wilderness, of whom I would tell, the men who have rubbed elbows with death from almost every angle and in almost every guise, in order that the American nation might win the greatest industrial victory in the history of the world. We have heard much of the industrial, political, mechanical, and financial sides of the Panama Canal. In fact the mass of material of this kind we have digested has smothered the human aspect of the great waterway. In the discussion of locks and dams, the romance of the Isthmus has been overlooked.

Download or read book Dividing the Isthmus written by Ana Patricia Rodríguez and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
