Interpretaciones: Experimental Criticism and the Metrics of Latin American Literature examines readers' reactions to short texts during crucial moments of the reading experience. These readers are students at universities in the US and several Spanish-speaking countries. Far from reducing the reading experience to a series of numbers, the data-driven approaches in the study instead underline the startling complexity and elusiveness of seemingly basic literary processes and concepts, including those pertaining to authorship, titles, conclusions, and so on. Simultaneously, Interpretaciones suggests alternative methodologies for gaining new and unexpected knowledge about literary texts themselves, whether from Latin America or elsewhere. Interpretaciones is an ambitious, interdisciplinary project geared toward those interested in literary theory, Latin American and Caribbean literature, and the nexus between literature and science.

ISBN: 9780810824850

This bibliography brings up through 1989 the comprehensive listing of scholarship and criticism on William Faulkner begun by Bassett in two earlier books, William Faulkner: An Annotated Checklist of Criticism (1972) and Faulkner: An Annotated Checklist of Recent Criticism (1983). Since the latter, over a hundred books on Faulkner have been completed, along with hundreds of articles and dissertations. This work lists all new items, often with extensive annotations, and provides separate entries for chapters of books that cover individual novels and stories. Bassett's introductory essay provides an overview of the last decade of Faulkner studies, the first in which post-structuralist and other newer forms of criticism had a major impact on Faulkner studies.

Los ensayos del presente volumen fueron escritos durante la última década y reflexionan acerca de una serie de temas que se encuentran presentes en la obra de Juan Rulfo. Estos temas pueden resumirse en cuatro conceptos: el espacio, la sociedad, la concepción de la realidad, y la marginalidad. Ellos exploran la concepción del espacio tal como aparece tratada en los trabajos literarios y visuales del escritor mexicano; la insersión del autor y de su obra en la circunstancia histórica de la sociedad mexicana de mediados de siglo, así como de los eventos que sus escritos reflejan; las maneras de pensar propias de las poblaciones indígenas y campesinas de América Latina, su concepción de la realidad y del universo, que generalmente se oponen a las maneras del pensar occidental; y la noción de marginalidad que permea la obra de Rulfo. Estos conceptos guían el estudio de la obra rulfiana, que aun hoy día genera lecturas ricas y novedosas.
