  abstract = {An awareness of the cultural entanglements in the Global South has become an evident as well as urgent factor in the global constitution of knowledge and the knowledges of globalization. This book contributes to the growing field of research on the relations between Latin America and Asia. From multiple perspectives and disciplinary backgrounds, it addresses the cultural and intellectual entanglements between Latin America and India in the 20th century. The ‘Sur / South’ cultural cartography that emerges reveals the need for a new reflection on Orientalism as well. This volume provides an exemplary contribution to these considerations. It deliberately shifts the perspective from the often theoretically and conceptually determined cultural relationships within the Global South. Instead, it illuminates a concretely focused complex geocultural relationship, here denoted as ‘Sur / South’, based on examples of cultural, literary and intellectual exchanges and interrelationships between Latin America and India, in the past and present. The term ‘Sur / Sout’ thus serves as a figure of thought for a change of perspective, for a shift of focus towards the concrete framework of exchange, signified through the materiality of topics, forms of knowledge and experiences.
