Description

This scholarly work examines how influential Latin American writers and intellectuals of the early 20th century engaged with Hollywood cinema during its formative years. The book analyses the complex relationship between established figures such as Horacio Quiroga, Alejo Carpentier and Mario de Andrade, alongside lesser-known writers including Mexican author Carlos Noriega Hope, Chilean Vera Zouroff and Cuban Guillermo Villarronda, as they encountered the ambiguous cultural force of American film. Hollywood presented a multivalent challenge to these writers, compelling them to navigate tensions between artistic integrity and the commercial dominance of a foreign cinematic tradition that fundamentally reshaped global culture. This Routledge volume provides critical insight into how Latin American literary figures responded to and were influenced by the rise of American cinema during this transformative period.
