Vertientes de la modernidad hispanoamericana1995

"Important essay examines modernity in Spanish-American narrative discourse. Finds unexpected relationship between authors and tendencies that appear distant in time and sociohistoric location. Based in textual analysis, the study links patterns in phonetic, morphosyntactic, and rhetorical aspects to the concept of modernity. Pays special attention to sociological and historical background of texts studied"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
