México y los albores del discurso colonial

About this book

"Study divided into six sections examines initial encounter between Europe and the Americas, American men and resistance, transculturation and colonial discourse, Malintzin's discourse, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, and writers on the margins of New Spain discourse. Essays chronologically focus on the concept of alterity during precolumbian times, the encounter, and the subsequent formation of Spanish-American colonial institutions. Helpful to cultural and literary scholars, historians, and advanced students"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
