    Extractions: In recent years the small island, with a population of just 11 million, has experienced an astonishing cultural renaissance. The immense popularity of the movies Buena Vista Social Club and Strawberry and Chocolate , the successful international tours of the National Ballet of Cuba, and a host of literary prizes in Spain and Latin America all attest to this phenomenon. The thirteen people interviewed played a leading role in cultural life during the years of the revolutionary process and today are considered official Cuban figures. They discuss a range of topicstheir own work and limits on it, the challenge of producing art in a poor country, and threats of censorship. All state categorically that they feel a profound sense of national identity and an acute awareness of their role as cultural symbol.

Printing the paper Abstract of a paper to be presented at the New Socialist Approaches to History seminar Institute of Historical Research , November 10th 2003. The recent As far-reaching processes of economic and political reforms unfolded in the Soviet Union under the guise of perestroika and glasnost , Cuba's Rectification process implemented 'counter-reforms' aimed at re-establishing the "ideological purity of the Revolution" (Fidel Castro). Critics -where they discuss the matter at all - are divided over the impact of Rectification policies on Cuban culture. Some argue that the 1980s were characterised by a veritable "cultural renaissance" (Esther Pérez) with writers, artists and film-makers openly challenging both the political and aesthetic mores of the Revolution. Others suggest that Rectification brought nothing more than a "cheap glasnost" (Enrico Santí) which ultimately reaffirmed the subservience of intellectuals to the state. In exploring the complexities of the state's stance on culture in the period, my paper highlights the limitations of both these positions. Rectification undoubtedly opened a window for debate and dialogue between the state and Cuba's cultural practitioners. Importantly, it also created a space for significant re-interpretations of some of the shibboleths of Cuban cultural policy, including, for example, ideas about mass culture, the role of the intellectual, the application of economic mechanisms to the cultural field, and 'sacred' cultural policy texts (such as Castro's 1961 'Words to the Intellectuals'). Such re-assessments on the part of the state, I argue, not only reveal significant modifications of previous cultural policy thinking, but also suggest that the state had in fact taken on board criticisms long maintained (privately or publicly) by intellectuals themselves. While rectification in some ways drew intellectuals back into the fold, however, when the real implications of Soviet

    Extractions: By Erin Miller Editor in chief Pulitzer Prize winner Oscar Hijuelos opened the final keynote lecture in the 2002 Festival of Faith and Writing with a warning. ``There are two versions of myself here tonight,'' he said, alluding to his formal, prepared speech about his writing and the humorous, parenthetical quips that surfaced every now and then throughout the speech, revealing what he claims is his true nature: an inability to be serious for long. Hijuelos commented that he chose to speak at the festival because he believes the combination of faith and writing is particularly important. ``What could be more relevant to those folk who embrace writing than these two complementary entities?'' he said. ``Faith [is found in] fantasy, wish fulfillment and fiction. Fiction is the last place faith flourishes. ``Even though I'm a basically cynical person, I've always written about religious people who are quite optimistic,'' he added. ``From the outside looking in, my characters seem superstitious. They believe in the soul and pray.... They believe in the validity of intuition.'' Much of the faith depicted in his novels reflects the environment in which Hijuelos grew up, in a neighborhood in New York City, as a child of Cuban immigrants. In that neighborhood, he experienced both devout Cuban Catholicism and Afro-Cuban cults. People believed in things such as ghosts, reincarnation and spirits. All of that is worked into the novels he writes, he said.
