Feature Summary
Coverage of all four genres of literature (narrative, poetry, drama, and essay) gives students a broad introduction to literature and gives instructors the flexibility to choose from a variety of literary selections.
Each genre begins with a thorough introductory section about the genre and the readings, including both theory and the application of theory.
Teaches the technical vocabulary of the Hispanic literary critic to students who possess a relatively limited knowledge of Spanish.
Readings are followed by Cuestionario (comprehension-based questions), Identificaciones (identification questions), and Temas (topics for discussion and writing).
Useful appendices include excerpts from critical essays, examples of poetic verse classifications by syllables, a glossary of literary terms, and a chronological index of literary works in their historical context.
