Digitization and Analysis of Cultural Transfers in Colombian Literary Magazines (1892–1950)

这个研究项目将研究欧洲和拉丁美洲之间的文化转移，特别是哥伦比亚和其他国家之间的文化转移。该项目的重点是对文化杂志的数字化、描述和分析，作为欧洲和哥伦比亚之间文化交流的核心媒介。在19世纪末和20世纪头几十年，文化和文学杂志是哥伦比亚文学的主要分销商。这是当代图书生产体制不稳定的结果。杂志、报纸和文学副刊的生产和收购成本都降低了。此外，杂志是文化输入发生的地方，无论是在翻译中，在特定流派的改编中，还是在接受方面。欧洲模式在哥伦比亚形成国家文学基础和文学系统机构的过程中被采纳、讨论、挪用和吸收。许多与欧洲文学系统的联系被创造出来，并且在20世纪仍然存在。因此，本项目将分析文化转移，并将特别关注文学杂志如何成为这些转移的主要工具和支持之一。因此，文学杂志被视为与其他文学系统接触的界面，是文学传播过程的主要元素，是不同文学系统产生的作品、思想和实践的传播和重新解释的平台。文化转移理论将用于审查包括哥伦比亚在内的可能的印刷品流通网络，重点是转移的原因、转移的方式、转移的用途和数据分析的方法。计算分析将用于识别“文学经纪人”，用于网络考古学的检查，并用于研究迁移中介的轨迹。

This research project will study cultural transfers between Europe and Latin America, especially between Colombia and other countries. The focus of the project is on the digitization, description, and analysis of cultural magazines as the central medium in which the dynamics of cultural transfers on the routes between Europe and Colombia unfolded. At the end of the nineteenth and during the first decades of the twentieth century, cultural and literary magazines were the principal distributors of literature in Colombia. This resulted out of the precarious system of contemporary book production. Magazines, newspapers, and literary supplements were less expensive, both in their production and in their acquisition. Moreover, magazines were the place in which cultural imports took place, be it in translations, in adaptations of specific genres, or with respect to reception. European models were adopted, discussed, appropriated, and ingested in the process of shaping a national literary base as well as institutions of the literary system in Colombia. A number of links to European literary systems were created, and they remained in place during the twentieth century. Therefore, this project will analyze cultural transfers, and it will particularly focus on how literary magazines were one of the main vehicles for and supports of these transfers. As such, literary magazines are regarded as the interfaces providing contacts with other literary systems, as the main elements of literary communication processes as well as the platforms for the distribution and reinterpretation of works, ideas, and practices emanating from different literary systems. The theory of cultural transfers will be used to conduct the examination of a possible network of circulation of printed matter that included Colombia, centered around the causes of the transfers, the modes of the transfers, the appropriation of the transfers and the methodology of data analysis. Computational analysis will be used to identify 'literary brokers', for the examination of the network archaeology, and for the study of the trajectories of the transfer mediators.
