Book Description
With a focus both historical and literary, Enrique Anderson-Imbert surveys the literature of Hispanic America. His study is not merely an historical synthesis of names, titles, and dates; it is, rather, a critical analytical appraisal of the verse, prose, and drama written in Spanish in the Americas in the contemporary period.

Book Description
Los mundos han sido supervisados desde tiempos inmemorables por inteligencias superiores. La responsabilidad de conservarlos ha recaído en especies más aptas e inteligentes, centinelas, guardianes, creados en el transcurrir de la evolución. La descomposición de la raza humana alertó a las fuerzas encargadas de supervisar este equilibrio. El peligro de alterar la configuración y la estabilidad compensatoria del universo; las estupideces, la ambición, el egoísmo y la soberbia del género humano han orillado intervenciones cíclicas, devastaciones, cataclismos, para depurar la conducta de las civilizaciones. Las múltiples admoniciones en las predicciones sumerias, mayas, cobran fuerza y actualidad: hemos perturbado el desarrollo y la expansión universal. El mundo no tiene tiempo que esperar: o salvamos la tierra y nos salvamos, o somos expulsados como especie para dar paso a otra forma de vida.

Book Description
Literary naturalism, within the Hispanic context, has traditionally been read as a graphic realist school or movement linked predominantly to late nineteenth century literary production. The essays in Au Naturel: (Re)Reading Hispanic Naturalism—written by scholars from different generations, nationalities and ideological backgrounds—propose a major revisionist contribution to the study of Hispanic naturalism. Based on a theoretical proposal that re-semanticizes naturalismo as a diachronic counter-metanarrative phenomenon that transcends the chronological and geographic limitations imposed by traditional criticism on naturalism, the collection provides new readings of traditional naturalist fare as well as re-readings of works that have not been read, within the bounds of conventional criticism, as naturalist. Re-read within the proposed theoretical framework, its essays demonstrate the countless ways in which Hispanic naturalist texts–literary and more recently, filmic—continue to frankly engage the societal problematics that has impeded true social, political, economic and cultural progress from taking place in the Hispanic world from the turbulent fin-de-siècle period of the nineteenth century through the present day, globalized context. Au Naturel: (Re)Reading Hispanic Naturalism is thus also an open invitation to the scholarly community to re-consider other socio-critical works within the Hispanic naturalist context that observe and reflection upon social issues that continue to plague Hispanic society today.
