In fact, while authors across stylistic and political divides--like Gabriela Mistral, Jorge Luis Borges, or Gabriel GarcÃa Márquez--see their work as being framed within the confines of a globalized Western literary tradition, their relationship, rather than epigonal, is often subversive. Borges and Kafka, Bolaño and Bloom is a parsing not simply of these authors' reactions to a canon, but of the notion of canon writ large and the inequities and erasures therein. It concludes with a look at the testimonial and autobiographical writings of Rigoberta Menchú and Lurgio Gavilán, who arguably represent the trajectory of Indigenous testimonial and autobiographical writing during the last forty years, noting how their texts represent alternative ways of relating to national and, on occasion, Western cultures. This study is a new attempt to map writers' diverse ways of thinking about locality and universality from within and without what is known as the canon."-- $c Publisher website. 650 0 $a American literature $x Appreciation $z Latin America. 650 0 $a American literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Spanish American literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Canon (Literature) 650 6 $a Littérature américaine $x Appréciation $z Amérique latine. 650 6 $a Littérature américaine $y 20e siècle $x Histoire et critique. 650 6 $a Littérature hispano-américaine $y 20e siècle $x Histoire et critique. 650 6 $a Chefs-d'Åuvre (Littérature) 650 7 $a American literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807113 650 7 $a American literature $x Appreciation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807120 650 7 $a Canon (Literature) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00845906 650 7 $a Spanish American literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01128195 651 7 $a Latin America. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245945 650 7 $a American literature $x Appreciation $z Latin America. $2 nli 650 7 $a American literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. $2 nli 650 7 $a Spanish American literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. $2 nli 650 7 $a Canon (Literature) $2 nli 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01986215 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Critiques littéraires. $2 rvmgf 776 08 $i Online version: $a De Castro, Juan E., 1959- $t Borges and Kafka, Bolaño and Bloom $d Nashville, Tennessee : Vanderbilt University Press, [2022] $z 9780826502506 $w (DLC) 2021046162 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20221217010642.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2D6E54747DD911EDB2605C6329ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
