In The Anzalduan Theory Handbook Ana Louise Keating provides a comprehensive investigation of the foundational theories, methods, and philosophies of Gloria E. Anzaldua. Through archival research and close readings of Anzaldua’s unpublished and published writings, Keating offers a biographical-intellectual sketch of Anzaldua, investigates her writing process and theory-making methods, and excavates her archival manuscripts. Keating focuses on the breadth of Anzaldua’s theoretical oeuvre, including Anzaldua’s lesser-known concepts of autohistoria y autohistoria-teoria, nos/otras, geographies of selves, and El Mundo Zurdo. By investigating those dimensions of Anzaldua’s theories, writings, and methods that have received less critical attention and by exploring the interconnections between these overlooked concepts and her better-known theories, Keating opens additional areas of investigation into Anzaldua’s work and models new ways to "do" Anzalduan theory. This book also includes extensive definitions, genealogies, and explorations of eighteen key Anzalduan theories as well as an annotated bibliography of hundreds of Anzaldua’s unpublished manuscripts.
