Title: Historia de la literatura hispanoamericana
First published: 1995
Description: "The challenges of writing a history of Spanish-American literature - an immense body of works combined with the complexity and heterogeneity of the literary discourses - is met here by giving greater attention to the process of formation and cultural and poetic moments at the expense of individual authors. Offers a corrective to most histories in that it begins with the 'literary' manifestations in Amerindian civilizations. Covers the novel, poetry, theater, and the essay from the colonial period to the present"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
Subjects: History and criticism, Spanish American literature
