  3. The Latin American Boom • While until the 50’s very few Latin American writers were known/tolerated in European circles, by 1975 world literature revolved around these writers. • How was this possible? • Seix Barral • Exile of many writers and knowledge of other languages • - their fresh and innovative outlook

  4. 1960-1970 Some trends started in the past remain: Indigenismo Afro-Cubanismo New writers rebel againts Realism! Some new vanguards influence the new Latin American writers. They continue to experiment with time and narrative voices. New influences: Surrealism Magical Realism Psychoanalysis Existencialism As with William Faulkner, the landscapes become a symbol of the characters’ psychological struggles (not “trapped” as with Criollistas).

  5. Although the Boom is not a movement, there are common traits among the writers of this period: • Experimentation • Interest in Latin American Societies • Depiction of complex Latin American political and economic structures with • ideological goals (not a photograph) • Emphasis on significant events that shaped cultural or social histories. • Became part of the ongoing analysis of the developments of humanity. Ocasio wrote: “This is one of the most important contributions of Boom literature: portrayal of Latin American society went beyond the anecdotal dimensions of previous works and became part of a more metaphysical and psychological approach to the exploration of the human psyche.”
