  1. Colonial Imaginations: Solitude in the Cartas y Relaciones of Hernán Cortés.Fernando Ismael Quiñones Valdivia - 2022 - Philosophy and Rhetoric 55 (2):152-176.
    ABSTRACT Critiques leveled at epistemic decolonization call for a reorientation in theories of colonialism. The colonial imagination, a rhetorical tool that normalizes a sensible order of dispossession and appropriation, can be a reoriented site of contestation.

In order to confront its (...)

    From a Levinasian perspective, the interaction between two people is an ethical encounter, a face-to-face interaction that calls the subject into question and renders them vulnerable to the ritual of rupture. But what if your embodiment renders you, in the moment of encounter, less than human? How can we bring the imperative of pre-ontological responsibility to bear on the present moment, fractured as we are in our understandings of embodiment and the hauntings of history?
