ISBN: 0521452104 ISBN-13: 9780521452106 Publisher: Cambridge University Press OUR PRICE: $137.75 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: June 1998 Annotation: The essays gathered here address the Argentine writer Julio Corta zar's oeuvre from a variety of critical positions and focus on several of his multifarious writings: poems, short stories, novels, and miscellanea. The intention has been to provide the space for a reappraisal of Corta zar that will question received notions and assumptions regarding his works, and hence pave the way for an overarching revision of his production and his place in Latin American letters. Although significantly different in their theoretical approach, style, and their point of insertion in Corta zar's oeuvre, the essays collectively manage to configure a Corta zar whose contours will both surprise and enlighten the reader. |
