The book series Latin American Literatures of the World presents an innovative understanding of literatures written in Latin America and the Caribbean. Informed by current perspectives on world literary studies and cultural theory, it focuses on works that deal with the multiple global connections of Latin American literatures. This comprises determined aesthetics and forms of writing, as well as book-market-related phenomena.
This volume is the first sistematic study of French editorial mediation in the internationalization process of Latin-American literatures. It opens a new field of investigation - Latin-American literary works translated into French - and develops methodological tools to extend this type of study to other literatures from the Global South.
