On the Dark Side of the Archive: Nation and Literature in Spanish America at the Turn of the Century
No Customer Reviews
On the Dark Side of the Archive examines nineteenth-century nation building through narratives that are not part of the romantic or realist traditions, specifically those associated with the critique of traditional ideas often portrayed in Decadentism and modernismo. The study focuses on the "non-canonical" works of turn-of-the-century authors-including Jos eacute; Mar iacute;a Vargas Vila, Horacio Quiroga, Clemente Palma, and Jos Mart -and concludes with a study that compares the literary portrayal of doomed societies in the nineteenth century with the work of contemporary authors, such as Fernando Vallejo.
