Latin America has been an important basis for theorizing the "postmodern condition" and has been the site of some of the most significant contributions to postmodern literature. However, discourses about postmodernity have overwhelmingly been constructed by European and American intellectuals. This book is a groundbreaking collection of essays by Latin American scholars on the theories and practices of postmodernity. It provides an important forum for Latin American intellectuals to shape the debates on postmodernity that are based, to a large degree, on their own cultural and political experiences. Gathering together new and classic essays across a wide range of disciplines and perspectives, this much-needed collection allows some of Latin America's leading cultural critics to "write back" to their Euro-American counterparts and join the international debate.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
