Description: "Literary and Cultural Relations Between Brazil and Mexico: Deep Undercurrents proposes an innovative assessment of cultural relations in Latin America in a context of enormous diversity. Its main focus is on a series of imaginative encounters involving extraordinary writers, artists, filmmakers, and thinkers from Brazil and Mexico. These encounters originated noteworthy essays, poems, novels, films, sculptures, and even graphic novels that represent the amazing potential of intercultural contacts within Latin America. They are carefully contextualized and thoroughly examined in a set of dense and yet clear analyses. Ultimately, these encounters serve as the basis for setting up an important discussion about the reconfiguration of the idea of Latin America and the productive cultural relationship between Latin American identities"--
