Key authors whose work has defined a period, or defied borders, as in the cases of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, César Vallejo, and Gabriel García Márquez, are also discussed in historical and theoretical context. Additional essays engage the reader with in-depth discussions of forms and genres, and discussions of architecture, music, and film \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis text provides the historical background to help the reader understand the people and culture that have defined Latin American literature and its reception.
