Historia de la literatura Española e Hispanoamericana. Editorial Ramón Sopena, Barcelona, 1957. This mid-century Spanish literary scholarship holds both cultural and bibliographic weight and embodies a European humanistic tradition, documenting Spanish and Latin American literature before the homogenizing influence of modern reference publishing.
This 1st edition reference work is a sweeping historical overview of Spanish and Latin American literature that captures the richness of two intertwined traditions. It offers valuable insights into mid-20th-century literary scholarship, written at a time when Hispanoamerican authors were gaining global recognition. Of interest also is the wonderful 1950s original style and cover art making it a fine reference or collector’s copy for those drawn to the Spanish language literary canon.
