Recenzii

"A major work of literary and cultural criticism, The Borderlands of Culture weaves together an insightful and thorough study of Americo Paredes's career with sustained reflections on the larger lessons and contemporary contexts of his writing. This is an original, wide-ranging, and provocative piece of scholarship by one of the profession's leading scholars of transnational literature."--Gustavo Perez Firmat, Columbia University "This is a magnificent book. Ramon Saldivar situates Americo Paredes as the founder of an aesthetic and an epistemology for the world at large by those who dwell in the borders--not just the borders between Mexico and the United States but the borders of Western imperialisms. His years of research, personal acquaintance with Paredes, and passionate scholarship have produced a work of lasting value and one that will no doubt become a canonical volume of Latino/a scholarship."--Walter D. Mignolo, author of Local Histories/Global Designs
