Very Good in Dustjacket. 0813509734. 321 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Anistatia Vassilopoulos. keywords: Latin America Translated American Indian Literature. DESCRIPTION - Latin American novels are not only literary works; they can also shed light on social and cultural developments. Braulio Munoz has used novels to underscore the changing status of the Indian in South and Central America. He concentrates on novels written between 1919 and 1964 in Bolivia, Ecuador, Peru, Guatemala, and Mexico, as part of a socio-literary movement known as Indigenismo, whose ostensive aim was to liberate the Indian from oppression and discrimination. But Muñoz finds in these novels both a hidden search for a Latin American identity and a strong desire for the cultural unity of Latin America. The ostensive aim of Indigenismo, Muñoz argues, was in fact incompatible with these underlying concerns. Confronted with conflicting goals, the literati believed the only way to save the Indian without endangering the search for a Latin American identity or for cultural unity was through mestizaje-the incorporation of the Indian into a unified mestizo culture. The Indian had to be westernized into oblivion in order to be saved. Muñoz shows how Indian magico-realist novels illustrate the success of the mestizo in asserting his cultural hegemony. He ends his engaging study by examining a new, more powerful, threat to cultural unity, the force of international culture. The central characteristics of the new Spanish American novel, Muñoz argues, show the intensive challenge to mestizo Spanish America pre-sented by international culture. inventory #20617.
