Book Synopsis Landmarks in Modern Latin American Fiction (Routledge Revivals) by : Philip Swanson
Download or read book Landmarks in Modern Latin American Fiction (Routledge Revivals) written by Philip Swanson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1960s, there occurred amongst Latin American writers a sudden explosion of literary activity known as the ‘Boom’. It marked an increase in the production and availability of innovative and experimental novels. But the ‘Boom’ of the 1960s should not be taken as the only flowering of Latin American fiction, for such novels dubbed ‘new novels’ were being written in the 1940s and 1950s, as well as in the 1970s and 1980s. In this edited collection, first published in 1990, Philip Swanson charts the development of Latin American fiction throughout the twentieth century. He assesses the impact of the ‘new novel’ on Latin American literature, and follows its growth. Nine key texts are analysed by contributors, including works by the ‘big four’ of the ‘Boom’ – Fuentes, Cortázar, Garcia Márquez and Vargas Llosa. This book will be of interest to critics and teachers of Latin American literature, and will be useful too as supplementary reading for students of Spanish and Hispanic Studies. It will also serve as a helpful introduction to those new to Latin American fiction.

This book was released on 2012-01-13 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Very Short Introduction chronicles the trends and traditions of modern Latin American literature, arguing that Latin American literature developed as a continent-wide phenomenon, not just an assemblage of national literatures, in moments of political crisis. With the Spanish American War came Modernismo, the end of World War I and the Mexican Revolution produced the avant-garde, and the Cuban Revolution sparked a movement in the novel that came to be known as the Boom. Within this narrative, the author covers all of the major writers of Latin American literature, from Andr?s Bello and Jos? Mar?a de Heredia, through Borges and Garc?a M?rquez, to Fernando Vallejo and Roberto Bola?o.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical analysis of Latin American writers from the 1960s to the present reveals interesting insights into the ambiguity of the fiction's break from traditional social realism to a representation of realism which is incomprehensible and paradoxical.

Book Synopsis Urban Spaces in Contemporary Latin American Literature by : José Eduardo González
Download or read book Urban Spaces in Contemporary Latin American Literature written by José Eduardo González and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays studies the depiction of contemporary urban space in twenty-first century Latin American fiction. The contributors to this volume seek to understand the characteristics that make the representation of the postmodern city in a Latin American context unique. The chapters focus on cities from a wide variety of countries in the region, highlighting the cultural and political effects of neoliberalism and globalization in the contemporary urban scene. Twenty-first century authors share an interest for images of ruins and dystopian landscapes and their view of the damaging effects of the global market in Latin America tends to be pessimistic. As the book demonstrates, however, utopian elements or "spaces of hope" can also be found in these narrations, which suggest the possibility of transforming a capitalist-dominated living space.

H. Moreno-Duran, and the Ecuadorian Jorge Enrique Adoum, as well as many others. With topics of discussion ranging from political agendas, subversion, and parody to truth claims, marginalism, and the testimonio, Williams' argument not only supports postmodernism as a legitimate movement, but he also extends its authority from the North Atlantic region to the Caribbean, Mexico, and the Southern Cone.
