- Synopsis
- Drawing on diverse scholarly and theoretical perspectives, this collection delves into the interplay between modernity and sacred traditions in contemporary Latin America as represented in its literature. It references important historical contexts, from the encounter of the Old and New Worlds to cultural mestizaje, highlighting the resilience of sacred discourse and experience amid a disenchanting capitalist modernity. Featuring analyses of diverse 20th- and 21st-century literary works, this book offers deep insights into how the sacred persists multifariously in Latin American literature. This work invites readers to rediscover the sacred as a vital component of human existence and literary discourse. It is an essential resource for understanding the complex relationship between modernity and the phenomenon of the sacred in Latin America.
