Macedonio Fernández: Between Literature, Philosophy, and the Avant-Garde
Bloomsbury Academic USA (Verlag)
978-1-5013-8426-4 (ISBN)
Contributors to this volume demonstrate, however, that this myth reduces the complexities of Macedonio’s life and creative process, as each chapter shines new light on his texts. Conceived as both a companion for new readers of Macedonio’s writings and an invitation for specialists to revisit his work through new perspectives, essays in this volume provide extensive background and bibliographical references, as well as English translations of Macedonio’s original texts. This collection seeks to serve as a catalyst for the continued discovery and rediscovery of Macedonio Fernández’s texts and the ways they might help us to rediscover the singularities of our own present moment.
Federico Fridman is Lecturer of Spanish at the University of Michigan, USA.
