Abstract
Con el aumento de la influencia china en América Latina, la presencia de este país oriental en el otro lado del mundo llama cada día más la atención. La gran ola migratoria de los chinos a Latinoamérica comenzó en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, con el tráfico de trabajadores «culíes» a Cuba, Panamá y el Perú principalmente. Esta tesis, bajo el título La narrativa de Siu Kam Wen y la inmigración china al Perú, se concentra en el Perú con el fin de estudiar la inmigración china reflejada en las obras narrativas de Siu Kam Wen. Muchos de los investigadores que han estudiado a este escritor de origen oriental suelen concentrarse en la transculturación que presenta en sus historias, pero no hay muchos trabajos que hablen de la heterogeneidad de las figuras que crea. A causa de los push and pull factors de los dos países, los primeros chinos entraron en el Perú en 1849 y la historia de la inmigración de este grupo se divide en tres etapas. Durante 169 años, los culíes chinos fueron tratados al principio como semiesclavos, para posteriormente recuperar la libertad y establecer sus propios negocios, que les permitieron sobrevivir en la tierra extranjera. Mientras tanto, en Lima se formó gradualmente el barrio chino, con sus correspondientes instituciones como escuelas, publicaciones periódicas y sociedades. Además, por medio del matrimonio con gente autóctona, surgieron los «tusanes», descendientes mestizos de los inmigrantes chinos nacidos en el Perú...
In recent years, the increasing influence of China in Latin America draws much attention and the Chinese immigration to this continent has been brought into focus. The big migratory wave between these two parts began in the second half of the 19th century with the “coolieˮ trade. Cuba, Panama and Peru were the three most important destinations of this business. Accordingly, the goal of this study, named The Narrative Works of Siu Kam Wen and the Chinese Inmigration to Peru, is to develop a more rigorous understanding of the Chinese immigration to Peru reflected in the narrative works of Siu Kam Wen.The literature review indicates that most of the investigators who have studied this oversea Chinese writer tend to focus on the transcultural phenomenon presented in his books, but there has been little discussion about the heterogeneity of those characters that he created. As a result of the push and pull factors of the two countries, the first Chinese workers entered in Peru in 1849. The history of the Chinese immigration to Peru can be divided into three stages. During the whole 169 years, the Asian coolies were firstly treated as slaves. However, later they regained the freedom and established their own business, which allowed themselves to survive in the foreign land. Meanwhile, gradually, in Lima they formed the Chinatown with its own institutions, such as schools, newspapers and all kinds of associations. In addition, marriages between Chinese and native people produce “tusansˮ, which refers to those Chinese-blood descendants born in Peru...
