Description
Poetic fables that consider a future Greater Americas that blends the cultures of peoples across the hemisphere.

This four-part collection of poetic fables engages the emerging field of global-poetics through Hispano-Americano lenses. Amid global crises between states, and cultural destabilization manifesting across mass popular culture and literature, WHITMAN. CANNONBALL. PUEBLA. sets out to invigorate conversation about how the United States might adapt to a wider hemispheric consciousness. Toscano's poems present a cultural landscape where the Anglo-capitalist outlook is tempered-if not subsumed-by a Greater Americas "Salamanca Humanism," which was the basis for the 1948 United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The book is divided into four sections that develop the idea of a Greater Americas as hinging on negotiation between Anglo and Hispano values, consider a potential catastrophic Anglo-American imperialism, imagine life in a Post-Empire crisis, and compose allegories about the historical consciousness of a people oversaturated with media.
