Synopsis: Current scholarship on Latin American historical fiction
has failed to adequately take feminism and postcolonialism into account. In this
collection of essays, noted scholars use these important contemporary discourses as
a starting point for a new definition of the Latin American historical novel that
includes four categories: fiction about the search for national identity, magical
realism, narrative with historical intertextuality, and symbolic historical fiction.
These categories show how the novel evolves through a new emphasis on women and the
colonial subject in key texts by Claribel Alegria, Edgardo Rodriguez Julia, Cristina
Peri Rossi, Reinaldo Arenas, Antonio Benitez-Rojo, Ana Teresa Torres, Tomas Eloy
Martinez, Ana Maria Goncalves, and Mario Vargas
Llosa.
