Book Description
Juan Rulfo has published only three slender volumes of fiction, yet his name has become well known throughout the literary world. The fact that his works capture the very essence of Mexico, its geography, its people, may explain his popularity. My purpose here is to present as complete a study of Rulfo's life and works as possible.

Landmarks in Modern Latin American Fiction (Routledge Revivals)
Author: Philip Swanson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317620283
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
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.

Ensayos Sobre la Obra de Juan Rulfo
Author: Gustavo C. Fares
Publisher: Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
Los ensayos del presente volumen fueron escritos durante la última década y reflexionan acerca de una serie de temas que se encuentran presentes en la obra de Juan Rulfo. Estos temas pueden resumirse en cuatro conceptos: el espacio, la sociedad, la concepción de la realidad, y la marginalidad. Ellos exploran la concepción del espacio tal como aparece tratada en los trabajos literarios y visuales del escritor mexicano; la insersión del autor y de su obra en la circunstancia histórica de la sociedad mexicana de mediados de siglo, así como de los eventos que sus escritos reflejan; las maneras de pensar propias de las poblaciones indígenas y campesinas de América Latina, su concepción de la realidad y del universo, que generalmente se oponen a las maneras del pensar occidental; y la noción de marginalidad que permea la obra de Rulfo. Estos conceptos guían el estudio de la obra rulfiana, que aun hoy día genera lecturas ricas y novedosas.

The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature
Author: Roberto Gonzalez Echevarría
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521410359
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 896
Book Description
The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature is by far the most comprehensive work of its kind ever written. Its three volumes cover the whole sweep of Latin American literature (including Brazilian) from pre-Colombian times to the present, and contain chapters on Latin American writing in the USA. Volume 3 is devoted partly to the history of Brazilian literature, from the earliest writing through the colonial period and the Portuguese-language traditions of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; and partly also to an extensive bibliographical section in which annotated reading lists relating to the chapters in all three volumes of The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature are presented. These bibliographies are a unique feature of the History, further enhancing its immense value as a reference work.

The Latin American Short Story at its Limits
Author: Lucy Bell
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351543075
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
The Latin American short story has often been viewed in terms of its relation to orality, tradition and myth. But this desire to celebrate the difference of Latin American culture unwittingly contributes to its exoticization, failing to do justice to its richness, complexity and contemporaneity. By re-reading and re-viewing the short stories of Juan Rulfo, Julio Cortazar and Augusto Monterroso, Bell reveals the hybridity of this genre. It is at once rooted in traditional narrative and fragmented by modern experience; its residual qualities are revived through emergent forms. Crucially, its oral and mythical characteristics are compounded with the formal traits of modern, emerging media: photography, cinema, telephony, journalism, and cartoon art.
