4.0 out of 5 stars Good translation of an important work, January 6, 2007

This review is from: The Lettered City (Post-Contemporary Interventions) (Paperback)
This version of The Lettered City (La ciudad letrada) is beautifully translated and includes many illustrations that the original version lacks. Even for a near-native speaker of Spanish like myself who had little difficulty with the original, this translation illuminates many of the finer points of this important text.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rama, reader of the Latin American culture, April 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Lettered City (Post-Contemporary Interventions) (Paperback)
Angel Rama is peharps one of the most important critics of Latin America. The Lettered city is the perfect example. This book, written to explain the influence of the intelectuals of Latin America in the development of culture, is one of the brightest essays I've ever red. I fully recommend this book to anyone who would like to approach to Latin American culture, literature or history.
