    Description
    Introduces a body of literature long neglected in mainstream philosophic discourse from the pre-Columbian period continuing to works from the 21st century, including issues of authenticity, identity, social and political justice, liberation theology, and feminism, in a literature that is wonderfully passionate and powerful which emanates from the lived experience of people from Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. Includes essays from Augusto Salazar Bondy, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, José Carlos Mariátegui, Gabriel García Márquez, Octavio Paz, and Leopoldo Zea. May be offered in a distance-learning format.
